🚀 Why this scraper?

Unlike other solutions that hit hard limits or charge exorbitant fees, our scraper is optimized for maximum extraction and affordability:

• Cost-Effective: Only $0.25 per 1,000 reviews. Highly competitive pricing compared to other APIs.
• Deep Search Feature: Google heavily limits review pagination (usually capping at around 3,000 - 4,000 reviews for standard queries). By enabling our Deep Search feature, the scraper uses an advanced multi-sort rotation algorithm to bypass these limits and extract the maximum possible amount of reviews for huge places.
• Optimal Defaults: For the absolute best standalone performance without Deep Search, stick to the Newest sorting method (which consistently extracts up to ~5k reviews alone). Selecting other sorting modes might yield fewer results natively due to Google's internal algorithm constraints.
• Unmatched Details: We extract everything: Review text, translations, reviewer's local guide status, detailed star ratings, photos with GPS coordinates, owner responses, and more.
