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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## iSeeCars Scraper Scrape used and new car listings from [iSeeCars.com](https://www.iseecars.com/) — a car search engine with 4M+ listings and unique price analysis tools. Extract pricing, VIN, mileage, condition, colors, engine specs, MPG, drivetrain, features, dealer info, price ratings (Great/Good/Fair Deal), and savings vs market value with no API key required. ### Features - Search by make and model (Toyota Camry, Ford F-150, Honda Civic, etc.) - Filter by condition: used, new, certified pre-owned - Good Deals mode — finds cars priced below market value - Filter by deal tier (Great Deal, Good Deal, Fair Deal) - Filter by year range, price range, mileage, transmission, fuel type, drivetrain - Multi-region scraping across US metro areas for maximum coverage - Price rating from iSeeCars market analysis (great/good/fair/high) - Savings amount vs market value or similar cars - Days on market per listing - iSeeCars dealer score (1-5 stars) - Scrape any iSeeCars URL directly ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `mode` | select | `search` (by make/model), `goodDeals` (below market value), or `byUrl` (specific URL) | | `make` | select | Car manufacturer: Toyota, Ford, Honda, Chevrolet, BMW, etc. | | `model` | string | Model name: Camry, F-150, Civic, etc. | | `condition` | select | `used`, `new`, or `certified`.

This scraper cycles through major US metro ZIP codes (New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, etc.) to collect diverse nationwide results. Up to 500 listings per run. **Do I need an API key or login?** No. iSeeCars listings are publicly accessible without authentication. **What does `priceRating` mean?** iSeeCars analyzes every listed price against similar vehicles in the area: `great` (significant discount) > `good` > `fair` > `high` (priced above market). **What is the `goodDeals` mode?** It filters to only cars iSeeCars has flagged as "Great Deals" — cars priced below market value. Useful for finding the best value vehicles quickly. **What is `savings`?** The dollar amount this car is priced below similar vehicles in the area (e.g. savings=1500 means the car is $1,500 below typical market price). **Can I filter by electric vehicles?** Yes, use `fuelType: "ELECTRIC"` in the input. **What ZIP code should I use?** The scraper uses its own built-in list of 20 major US metro ZIP codes to collect nationwide results. Setting `zip` in the input makes that your starting point. ### Data Source Data is scraped from [iSeeCars.com](https://www.iseecars.com/), a U.S. automotive search platform with 4 million+ listings and proprietary price analysis that identifies underpriced vehicles across the country. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to scrape.
