## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

One Google Maps search per line, exactly as you would type it into the Maps search box. Include a location for best results, e.g. "restaurants in Miami", "dentists 90210", "coffee in Austin TX". Each query is scraped independently.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of places to return for each search query. Google Maps returns about 20 places per page; higher values page through additional results (capped at 300).

## `language` (type: `string`):

Two-letter interface language code Google should use for results (the hl parameter), e.g. "en", "es", "fr", "de". Defaults to English.

## `maxCostUsd` (type: `integer`):

HARD budget cap. The run stops cleanly before exceeding this.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchQueries": [
    "restaurants in Miami",
    "dentists 90210"
  ],
  "maxResults": 20,
