• minPrice / maxPrice: lowest and highest price found among nearby stores, in Argentine pesos.
• availableAtStores: number of nearby stores currently reporting a price for this product.

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it through the Apify API.

Good to know

• Data comes straight from the public JSON API behind the official site, so it is fast and reliable: no browser, no proxy needed.
• The dataset carries product, brand and price data only. No shopper, cashier or any individual is ever named — only products and the chain/store counts that sell them.
• Prices are reported by the stores themselves to the Argentine government platform and may lag real shelf prices by a day or two.

En español

Este actor extrae los precios de supermercado publicados por Precios Claros (Argentina): producto, marca, presentación, precio mínimo y máximo, y sucursales donde está disponible, en JSON, CSV o Excel. Sirve para comparar precios por zona, seguir la inflación de una canasta o alimentar una app de compras. No necesita cuenta ni proxy; datos públicos del Estado.

Why this one

• The Argentine government's own price platform. The data comes from Precios Claros, the official price transparency site, not from a single retailer.
• Prices around any location. Give a latitude, a longitude and a product search (Buenos Aires by default) and get minPrice, maxPrice and availableAtStores.

Who uses it

• Price monitoring and promotion tracking across runs.
• Competitive intelligence: assortment, availability and unit prices by store or category.

Pricing

Pay per result: $2.00 per 1,000 products, plus $0.01 per run start with the default 4 GB of memory. For example, 100 products cost about $0.21. You only pay for the products you receive, and platform usage is included in that price. Store discounts apply automatically on paid Apify plans: up to 20% off every event on the higher tiers.

Run it from your code

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('bibian/preciosclaros-prices-scraper').call({
  lat: -34.6037,
  lng: -58.3816,
  query: 'leche',
  maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(token="<APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("bibian/preciosclaros-prices-scraper").call(run_input={
    "lat": -34.6037,
    "lng": -58.3816,
    "query": "leche",
    "maxItems": 50
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items

Monitor new products daily and connect your tools

1. Schedule it. Save a task for your area and search, schedule it daily with Apify Schedules, and compare minPrice and maxPrice for the same id between runs. Tick Only new results in the input and each run returns, and charges, only the products that earlier runs of the same search did not deliver.
2. Push the results where you work. Add an Apify integration or a webhook to the task: Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n or your own endpoint, triggered at the end of every run.
3. Call it from your stack. The API and the JavaScript and Python clients return the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.
4. Let an AI agent use it. Through the Apify MCP server, assistants such as Claude or ChatGPT can search the Store, read this page and run the actor as a tool.
