Thumbtack Professionals & Reviews Scraper

Free plan limit: Free-plan users can receive up to 5 result records per run. Paid-plan and local/unknown runs retain the Actor's existing limits.

Extract public Thumbtack professional listings from a service search or known public Thumbtack pages.

What it returns

Each dataset item is one unique public professional profile:

Field	Description
name, profileUrl	Public professional name and canonical Thumbtack profile URL
rating, reviewCount	Public rating metrics when visible
categories, description	Visible services and profile description when available
phone, website, location	Publicly displayed contact, external site, and location only when available
sourceUrl, sourceService, sourceLocation	The page, service, and ZIP-code context that produced the record

Use service and a five-digit US ZIP code in location for a normal public search, or startUrls for exact search/profile pages. maxResults caps delivered professionals; maxPages only follows a visible public next-page link. Set includeProfileDetails to false for search-card-only output.

{
  "service": "house cleaning",
  "location": "78701",
  "maxResults": 10,
  "maxPages": 1,
  "includeProfileDetails": true
}

Access and reliability

The Actor uses a browser with a consistent US residential proxy session and a low request rate. Profile enrichment preserves the search-card rating, review count, category, and location whenever the detail page omits them. It only extracts data displayed on public pages and does not use accounts, CAPTCHA-solving, paywall bypassing, or hidden/private endpoints.

The result cap also bounds profile visits: a run with maxResults: 10 schedules at most ten profile-detail pages. If a detail page is blocked after the search card was collected, the Actor preserves that valid card record and reports the fallback in OUTPUT.

Some Thumbtack routes may present an access challenge. In that case the Actor writes no fabricated dataset rows and puts a BLOCKED result with actionable warnings in the OUTPUT key-value record. A valid public search with no matching profiles returns EMPTY the same way. Check OUTPUT after every zero-result run.

Pay per event

Event	Price	When charged
Actor start	$0.005	Per GB of allocated memory when a run starts (two events with the 2 GB default)
Scraped professional	$0.04	Once per schema-valid professional written to the default dataset

Both events are emitted by Apify: the code never charges them manually, so a record is never double charged. With the 2 GB default, a one-result run costs $0.04010 in events. Platform usage is covered by the Actor owner, and no result event is charged for empty, blocked, invalid, or failed pages.

Responsible use

Use only for lawful collection of public information and comply with Thumbtack's terms, privacy rules, and applicable data-protection laws. Do not use results to contact people in ways they did not expect, or to make decisions about individuals without appropriate safeguards.
