Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Google Maps Lead Extractor

### What does Google Maps Lead Extractor do?

Google Maps Lead Extractor enables you to get detailed business data, local search results, and customer reviews from [Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps) directly using search terms or listing URLs.

Google Maps Lead Extractor can scrape:

- Local search results (lighter, faster payload)
- Full business details (contact info, address, opening hours, coordinates)
- Paginated customer reviews
- Scored local business leads (combining search and details)
- Optional lead enrichment with website emails and Google web results

### Why scrape Google Maps?

Google Maps has millions of businesses listed and is a great source of data for lead generation, competitive research, reputation management, and local market intelligence.

Here are just some of the ways you could use that data:

- Build detailed contact lists for B2B outreach and sales
- Analyze customer reviews and sentiment for specific competitors
- Track business ratings and popularity in specific areas
- Discover new businesses and map local market trends

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "search": {
        "searchTerms": [
            "dentist"
        ],
        "locations": [

    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("crawlio/google-maps-lead-extractor").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "search": {
    "searchTerms": [
      "dentist"
    ],
    "locations": [
      "Jackson Heights NY"
    ],
    "numberOfPlaces": 20

apify call crawlio/google-maps-lead-extractor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,crawlio/google-maps-lead-extractor"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
