## 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.

# README

## TrustRadius Scraper

Extract software product data and verified reviews from [TrustRadius](https://www.trustradius.com), the third-largest B2B software review platform. Get trScores, ratings, reviewer company metadata, pros/cons, and usage details for competitive intelligence and SaaS market research.

### What data does it extract?

**Product records** include:
- Product name, vendor, category, and subcategories
- Overall rating (out of 10) and TrustRadius proprietary trScore
- Review and rating counts
- Deployment types (SaaS, On-Premise, etc.)
- Starting price and pricing terms
- Commonly compared alternatives
- Customer Verified badge status

**Review records** include:
- Reviewer name, job title, company, company size, and industry
- Individual review rating (out of 10)
- Review title, pros, cons, and product usage description
- Verification status (TrustRadius reviews require LinkedIn authentication)
- Published date

### Input options

| Field | Description | Default |
|-------|-------------|---------|
| `productUrls` | Direct TrustRadius product URLs to scrape | `[]` |
| `searchQuery` | Keyword to search for products (e.g., "CRM", "project management") | `"project management"` |
| `maxItems` | Maximum number of products to scrape | `50` |
| `includeReviews` | Extract individual reviews for each product | `true` |
| `maxReviewsPerProduct` | Maximum reviews per product (5 per page) | `10` |

#### Input modes

1. **Direct URLs** -- Provide specific product review page URLs via `productUrls`. Each URL is scraped directly.
2. **Search** -- Set `searchQuery` to discover products by keyword. The actor searches via the `/products` listing pages and then scrapes each product found.
3. **Browse all** -- Leave both `productUrls` and `searchQuery` empty to browse all products from the main listing.

### Example input

Scrape 3 specific products with their reviews:

```json
{
    "productUrls": [
        "https://www.trustradius.com/products/miro/reviews",
        "https://www.trustradius.com/products/hubspot-crm/reviews",
        "https://www.trustradius.com/products/slack/reviews"
    ],
    "maxItems": 3,
    "includeReviews": true,
    "maxReviewsPerProduct": 5
}
````

Search for CRM products without reviews:

```json
{
    "searchQuery": "CRM",
    "maxItems": 10,
    "includeReviews": false
}
```

### Output format

Results are saved to the default dataset. Each record has a `recordType` field: `"product"` for product summaries, `"review"` for individual reviews. Product fields are populated on product records; reviewer fields are populated on review records.

#### Sample product record

```json
{
    "recordType": "product",
    "productName": "Miro",
    "vendorName": "Miro",
    "category": "Visual Collaboration",
    "subcategories": "Agile Development, Collaboration, Mind Mapping, Project Management",
    "overallRating": 9.2,
    "trScore": 9.181,
    "reviewCount": 6244,
    "ratingCount": 3485,
    "deploymentTypes": "saas",
    "pricingModel": "$10/per user per month",
    "alternativesCompared": "Mural, Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite",
    "isCustomerVerified": true,
    "productUrl": "https://www.trustradius.com/products/miro/reviews"
}
```

#### Sample review record

```json
{
    "recordType": "review",
    "productName": "Miro",
    "reviewerName": "Sharon Williams",
    "reviewerTitle": "Product Manager",
    "reviewerCompany": "Inmar Intelligence",
    "reviewerCompanySize": "1001-5000 employees",
    "reviewerIndustry": "Information Technology & Services",
    "reviewRating": 10,
    "reviewTitle": "Makes Workflows Easy.",
    "reviewPros": "Workflow.\nTimelines.\nSprint Planning.",
    "reviewCons": "Make it easier to connect and reconnect boxes.",
    "reviewUsage": "I regularly use Miro to help with sprint planning...",
    "isVerifiedReview": true,
    "reviewDate": "2026-04-14T19:41:47.943Z"
}
```

### Performance

- Runs on 512 MB memory
- No proxy required (direct requests work)
- Typical crawl: 5 products with reviews in ~30 seconds
- No Cloudflare challenges on product pages (only the `/search` endpoint is protected)

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "sp_intended_usage": "Describe your intended use...",
    "sp_improvement_suggestions": "Share your suggestions here...",

};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("jungle_synthesizer/trustradius-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
