Amazon Reviews Scraper

This Apify Actor retrieves Amazon product reviews in real time, with flexible filtering options. It is suitable for review monitoring, competitor analysis, and downstream data pipelines.

Why it's fast and stable

Unlike browser-based scrapers (Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium), this Actor does not launch or depend on a headless browser. It connects to a lightweight HTTP scraping backend over WebSocket and streams parsed reviews directly into the dataset.

This architecture brings several practical benefits:

• Low memory footprint — runs comfortably at 128 MB (default) with a 256 MB ceiling, instead of the 1–2 GB typical for browser Actors
• Faster cold starts — no Chromium download, browser boot, or page rendering overhead
• Higher stability — fewer moving parts; no browser crashes, tab leaks, or CDP disconnects
• Lower cost — less memory and CPU per run on Apify

Key capabilities

• Real-time review collection for a given ASIN
• 23 Amazon marketplaces (country code → domain mapping below)
• Filtering by sort mode, reviewer type, star rating, format, and media type
• Continuous pagination support for higher review coverage
• Structured output ready for analytics, storage, or integration workflows

Supported marketplaces
