Stock Photo Scraper — Getty, iStock, Adobe Stock, Freepik +3

✅ Checked daily. An automated test runs this Actor on the Apify cloud every day and checks that it still returns real data, so if the website changes and something breaks, it's caught the same day and fixed.

Search Getty Images, iStock, Adobe Stock, 123RF, Envato Elements, Freepik and Alamy at once: titles, contributors, licences, sizes, AI-generated flags, preview images and links in one table. Keyword research for stock contributors.

What it's for

• Keyword research for stock contributors: what sells for a keyword (sort by most popular / downloads), how crowded it is (total results), which styles and contributors rank first.
• Competitor tracking: see what's new for your niche (sort by newest) and run it on a schedule.
• Designers and agencies: build shortlists of assets across sites with preview links, licences and sizes.
• Market research / datasets: metadata only (titles, contributors, dates, licences). Images stay with their owners.

FAQ

Does it download the full-size files? No. It collects public search-result data and the watermarked preview links shown to every visitor. Licensing an asset is still done on the site.

Is it fast? Yes: plain HTTP requests, no browser. About 1,000 results a minute per site.

What if a site blocks a request? It retries automatically with a different fingerprint and IP; a residential IP is used as a last resort, at no extra cost to you.

Can I schedule it? Yes, use an Apify schedule (e.g. daily, sorted by newest) and connect the dataset to Google Sheets, Slack or a webhook.
