OLX Brasil Scraper - New Ads & Price Drop Monitor

Turn on monitor mode and schedule it → get only new ads and price drops. For car dealers (lojistas), resellers, property brokers (corretores) and deal-alert bots across Brazil: the newest OLX Brasil ads for your search (carros usados, motos, imóveis à venda e para alugar, celulares, móveis, every major OLX category, or any OLX search page you paste), with the price in BRL, the previous price, state, city and bairro, the posting time, private or business seller (particular or profissional), photos, and car and property details where OLX shows them. Each scheduled run returns only what moved since the last run among the newest ads of each search (100 by default). The first run returns them once as your starting point.

No OLX account or API key needed. Start with a category and a state, for example cars in SP. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send the new ads to Slack, email or a sheet with an Apify integration.

What you get

• New ads only, on a schedule (monitorMode). Each row says what happened in changeType: new (posted since the last run), price_drop (the price went down; the old price is in previousPrice), price_up (only if you turn on includePriceIncreases), or removed (an ad you received is gone from the list on two checks in a row; only for searches whose whole list is read). The first run returns the current ads once as the starting point.
• Renewed ads are not sold to you as new. OLX moves renewed (bumped) ads back to the top of the newest-first list: in our run of 28 October 2026 with {"category": "cars", "state": "SP", "maxResultsPerSearch": 100}, 81 of the 100 newest ads came back with bumped: true. Monitor mode returns an ad as new only once, and bumped tells you which ads were renewed.
• Every major OLX category, or any OLX search page you paste, newest first, up to 5,000 ads per search, and up to 10 searches per run. On 28 October 2026 OLX listed 145,712 car ads in São Paulo state (the adsInSearch column of our test runs).
• Price in BRL with currency: "BRL", plus the crossed-out old price OLX itself shows on some ads (oldPriceOnOlx).
• Car and property details as columns: brand, model, year, mileage (km), fuel, gearbox, body type, colour, doors, engine size; property type, area in m², quartos, banheiros, vagas, condomínio and IPTU. Every other detail OLX shows on the ad card is in attributes.
• The filters OLX has: keyword, category, state, region, price range and private or business seller. Or paste any OLX Brasil search page with your filters already set.
• Each ad once. An ad found by two searches of the same run is returned and charged once.

Free rows (never charged)

status	When
no-results	OLX lists no ad for this search.
no-changes	Monitor mode: no new ads, price changes or removed ads since the last run.
none-matching	OLX has ads, but each one was already returned by an earlier search of the same run.
more-not-returned	The search has more ads than maxResultsPerSearch, or more than one search can reach; the row says how many and how to narrow it. Monitor mode: more changes than maxResultsPerSearch (a later run returns them), or on the first run, how many ads became the starting point.
more-new-than-readable	Monitor mode: more ads were posted since the last run than this run read, so some new ones may have been missed. Run the watch more often or raise maxResultsPerSearch.
not-found	OLX could not use the search, for example a region it does not know by that name.
blocked	OLX refused the request. The run stops and says which searches were not run.
unreadable, incomplete	A page could not be read, even after asking again. Nothing is guessed. In a normal search the newest ads from the pages before it are returned and charged (incomplete), and nothing after it. In monitor mode nothing is returned or remembered for that search: the next run checks it again.
budget-reached	The run reached the maximum total charge you set; the rest was not returned and not charged (in monitor mode the next run returns them).
bad-input	The input could not be used. Nothing was requested.

Input

Field	What it does
monitorMode	Return only ads that are new since the last run, price drops and, for searches whose whole list is read, removed ads.
keywords	Words as you would type them in the OLX search box: iphone 13, hilux, apartamento 2 quartos, bicicleta aro 29. Each keyword is its own search.
category	Cars, motorcycles, vehicle parts, property for sale or rent (apartments, houses, land), phones, electronics, computers, video games, appliances, furniture, home and garden, bicycles, sports, fashion, pets, agro, kids items, music, building materials, or all categories.
state	The state (estado), for example SP, RJ, MG, PR. Empty = all of Brazil. All search fields empty = cars in SP.
region	An OLX region inside the state, as written in OLX addresses: sao-paulo-e-regiao, grande-campinas, rio-de-janeiro-e-regiao, belo-horizonte-e-regiao. For a city or bairro, open it on OLX and paste the address in searchUrls.
minPrice, maxPrice	Price range in BRL, applied the same way as the OLX price filter.
sellerType	private (particular) or business (profissional). Empty = all.
searchUrls	OLX Brasil search pages copied from the browser, for example https://www.olx.com.br/autos-e-pecas/carros-vans-e-utilitarios/estado-sp. Each is read newest first with its own filters.
maxResultsPerSearch	Newest ads to read per search, 1-5000. Empty = 100. In monitor mode, the window checked for new ads and price changes on each run.
includePriceDrops	Monitor mode: return price drops. Empty = yes.
includePriceIncreases	Monitor mode: also return price increases. Empty = no.
minPriceChangePercent	Monitor mode: ignore price changes smaller than this percentage (0-90).
includeRemoved	Monitor mode: return ads gone from the list on two checks in a row, for searches whose whole list fits in the window. Empty = yes.
includeUnchanged	Monitor mode: also return ads already received that did not change (each one is charged). Empty = no.
watchName	Give each schedule its own name so separate schedules keep separate memories.
resetMonitoringState	Forget what this watch remembered; this run is a first check again.

Up to 10 searches per run (keywords plus search URLs).

Examples

New Toyota Hilux ads in São Paulo state, every hour, price drops of 3% or more:

{ "monitorMode": true, "watchName": "hilux-sp", "category": "cars", "state": "SP", "keywords": ["hilux"], "minPriceChangePercent": 3 }

Apartments for rent in the Rio de Janeiro region up to R$ 4,000 a month:

{ "category": "property-rent", "state": "RJ", "region": "rio-de-janeiro-e-regiao", "maxPrice": 4000 }

The newest 1,000 phone ads in São Paulo state from private sellers:

{ "category": "phones", "state": "SP", "sellerType": "private", "maxResultsPerSearch": 1000 }

Monitor mode, step by step

1. First run: reads the newest maxResultsPerSearch ads of each search, returns them once (changeType: new, isFirstCheck: true) and remembers them as the starting point.
2. Later runs: read the same window again and return only ads posted since the last run (new), ads you received whose price went down (price_drop, with the previous price), and, for searches whose whole list is read, ads you received that are gone two runs in a row (removed). When nothing moved, one free no-changes row comes back and only the run start fee is charged.
3. Ads not returned because of maxResultsPerSearch or a spending limit come back first in the next run. Nothing is judged from a page that could not be read.

Keep one schedule per input and watchName. Two overlapping runs of the same watch can both return the same new ad.

Pricing

You pay per ad row returned, plus a small start fee once per run. In monitor mode the start fee pays for the check, also when nothing changed. Free rows are never charged, and in monitor mode you are not charged again for ads that did not change: unchanged ads are not returned or charged unless you turn on includeUnchanged.

The first run of a watch returns and charges up to maxResultsPerSearch ads per search (default 100) as the starting point; set it lower for a cheap first run.

FAQ

How do I get only new OLX ads for my search? Turn on monitorMode, give the watch a watchName and schedule the run hourly or daily. The first run is your starting point; every later run returns only new ads and price drops.

How often should I schedule it? Hourly or daily. A whole big state (for example all cars in SP) gets more new ads in an hour than a 100-ad window holds; run it more often, add a keyword, region or price range, or raise maxResultsPerSearch. A free row tells you when new ads may have been missed.

Is a renewed (bumped) ad reported as new? No. In monitor mode an ad is returned as new only once, and ads that only moved back to the top are not returned again.

What counts as a price change? A change of the asking price. A price that disappears from an ad is not reported as a change.

Does it cover the whole of Brazil? Yes, all 27 states, or leave the state empty to search the whole country.

Good to know

• Reads only the search result pages OLX shows anyone without logging in. Ad pages are not opened.
• Seller names, phone numbers and emails are not returned; the seller type (private or business) is.
• removed is judged only for searches whose whole list is read, so an ad pushed down by newer ads is never called removed.
• Rows are the ads OLX itself lists for the search, in its order. An OLX region page can mix in ads from nearby areas: on 28 October 2026, 53 of the 200 newest rentals on the rio-de-janeiro-e-regiao page were elsewhere in RJ state (for example Petrópolis, Macaé, Volta Redonda). Filter on city or neighborhood to keep one city.
• Unofficial and not affiliated with OLX.
