Google Trends Scraper – Compare Unlimited Keywords

Get Google Trends data for any keyword, country and time range: interest over time, interest by country, region or city and related & rising queries.

$3 per 1,000 results. Unlike the Google Trends website, you can compare more than 5 keywords on one scale. The scraper links batches through an anchor keyword and rescales everything so all terms are directly comparable.

What you get

Each result is one dataset item with a type:

type	Contents
interestOverTime	timeline: [{time, formattedTime, isPartial, values: {keyword: 0-100}}] plus averages per keyword
interestByRegion	regions: [{geoCode, geoName, values: {keyword: 0-100}}]
relatedQueries	top and rising queries for one keyword, with values (rising shows growth in % or "Breakout")

Every item also includes geo, timeRange, category and searchProperty.

Inputs

• Search terms: any number of keywords.
• Country / region code: e.g. US, DE, US-CA. Empty means worldwide.
• Time range: past hour to 2004–present, or a custom range like 2025-01-01 2025-12-31.
• Search type: web, image, news, Google Shopping or YouTube search.
• Compare mode: all terms on one scale (default) or each on its own scale.
• Anchor term: the keyword used to link batches when you compare more than 5.

Example output

{
  "type": "interestOverTime",
  "keywords": ["chatgpt", "claude", "gemini"],
  "geo": "US",
  "timeRange": "today 12-m",
  "averages": {"chatgpt": 78.4, "claude": 9.1, "gemini": 21.6},
  "timeline": [{"time": 1729987200, "formattedTime": "Oct 27 – Nov 2, 2024", "isPartial": false, "values": {"chatgpt": 74, "claude": 7, "gemini": 18}}]
}

Use cases

• Keyword and content research for SEO and marketing
• Product and market research: what is rising, where and when
• Seasonality planning for e-commerce and ads
• Brand vs. competitor tracking over time

Why this scraper

• ✅ Unlimited keywords on one scale via anchor normalization (Google itself stops at 5)
• ✅ Reliable: paced requests, automatic retries and proxy rotation
• ✅ Any country, region, time range, category and search type (web, YouTube, news, images, shopping)
• ✅ Clean JSON: one item per timeline, regional breakdown or related-queries list

How much does it cost?

You pay $3 per 1,000 results. A typical run for 5 keywords with timeline, regions and related queries returns about 7 results, i.e. about $0.02.

FAQ

Are these absolute search volumes? No. Google Trends returns relative interest from 0 to 100. Use it to compare terms, regions and time periods.

How does comparing more than 5 keywords work? Terms are split into batches that all contain one anchor term. Each batch is rescaled through the anchor so all terms end up on one 0–100 scale.

Is this a Google Trends API or pytrends alternative? Yes. Google has no public Trends API and pytrends breaks often; this Actor returns the same data as JSON, CSV or Excel via the Apify API, MCP or integrations.
