What does it do?
Google Maps Business Scraper automates the extraction of business listing data from Google Maps. Simply enter your search queries like "restaurants near Dallas TX" or "plumbers in Plano TX" and the actor will find businesses, visit each listing page, and extract comprehensive business data including the business name, full address, phone number, website URL, star rating, review count, business category, and operating hours. This data is essential for local lead generation, market research, and competitive analysis.
The scraper uses a headless browser to interact with Google Maps exactly as a real user would. It scrolls through search results to load additional businesses, navigates to individual business pages for complete data extraction, and handles pagination automatically. All extracted data is structured and ready for export.

Cost of usage
This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You are charged $0.75 per 1,000 businesses extracted. Because it uses a headless browser (Puppeteer), it requires more memory (2048-4096 MB) than lightweight scrapers. A typical run extracting 100 businesses costs under $1.00.
The actor uses Apify Proxy which is included in your Apify subscription.
Tips and tricks
- Start with a small
maxResultsvalue (e.g., 20) to test your queries before scaling up - Be as specific as possible with your queries (include city and state) for relevant results
- Google Maps may rate-limit aggressive scraping, so the actor uses conservative concurrency settings
- Schedule regular runs with Apify Schedules to track new businesses
- Use Apify integrations to push leads directly to your CRM or Google Sheets
- For large-scale extraction, consider running during off-peak hours for better success rates
