AppSumo Scraper

🚀 AppSumo Scraper: Lifetime Deals, Prices, Plans and Reviews

Export AppSumo deals as clean JSON, CSV or Excel. The AppSumo Scraper collects every software lifetime deal on AppSumo with its price, original price, discount, rating, review count, category, integrations and the tools it replaces, plus optional license tiers, FAQs and reviews. Use it to track AppSumo lifetime deals, research SaaS lifetime deals in your niche, or as a simple AppSumo API alternative.

🎯 Use Cases

• Track new lifetime deals: run it daily and get every new AppSumo software deal the day it launches, with price and discount.
• Software deals research: compare prices, discounts and license tiers across hundreds of SaaS lifetime deals in one spreadsheet.
• AppSumo reviews analysis: pull ratings, review counts, AI review summaries and individual reviews to see which deals buyers actually like.
• Competitor and market mapping: use alternativeTo, integrations and bestFor to see which tools launch LTD deals against yours.
• Deal archive and history: export all 3,500+ all-time AppSumo deals, including expired ones, for trend analysis.

✨ Features

• Deal data: name, URL, short description, price, original price, discount percent, free flag, rating, review count and AI review summary.
• Taxonomy: AppSumo group, category and subcategory for every deal.
• Product attributes: supported platforms, features, integrations, "best for" audiences and the tools each deal is an alternative to.
• Deal timing: start date, end date and the reason the timer is running (for example "General access ending").
• Media: product images, YouTube video ID and the story highlights shown on the card.
• Full product details (optional): every license tier with price, original price, plan type, tier number, plan features and terms, the full FAQ list and the money-back guarantee period.
• Reviews (optional): rating, title, full text, author username, how many deals the author bought, date, upvotes and a verified-purchase flag.
• Live, all-time or upcoming deals: about 340 live deals right now, or the full archive of about 3,500 deals.
• Keyword search: find deals for "crm", "email" or any other term.
• Fair billing: you pay for the deal cards, details and reviews you get, nothing else.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Choose a mode: browse all deals (live, all-time or upcoming) or search by keyword.
2. Pick the depth: deal cards only, or turn on full product details and reviews.
3. Run the scraper and download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull them through the Apify API.

⚙️ Input

Field	Default	What it does
Mode (mode)	browse	browse lists all deals, search finds deals by keyword.
Deal status (status)	current	current (live deals, about 340), all (all-time archive, about 3,500) or upcoming (AppSumo usually lists no coming-soon deals, so this often returns 0 with a clear status message).
Sort order (sort)	newest	newest, recommended, most_reviewed, rating (top rated), price_low, price_high or ending (ending soon). trending is kept for old schedules and sorts like recommended.
Search query (query)	empty	Keyword to search for when the mode is search, e.g. crm.
Group (group)	empty	AppSumo group: marketing, sales-leads, media-design, operations, build-code or customer-engagement; deal types software, courses-learning, templates and creative-resources also work.
Category (category)	empty	AppSumo category such as content-marketing, crm, seo-analytics or developer-tools, or a subcategory such as seo or cold-email. Slugs or display names both work; an unknown value is ignored (the log lists the valid ones and the status says so).
Max items (maxItems)	100	How many deals to save. 0 means no limit.
Scrape full product details (scrapeDetails)	false	Adds license tiers, FAQs and the money-back guarantee period.
Scrape reviews (scrapeReviews)	false	Adds individual reviews to each deal.
Max reviews per deal (maxReviewsPerDeal)	50	Review cap per deal, newest first. Every review of a deal is reachable, so raise it to get them all.

💰 Pricing

Pay only for what you get. No monthly rental.

Event	Price	What you get
Deal card	$0.001 per deal ($1.00 per 1,000)	One deal with price, rating, taxonomy, attributes, dates and media.
Deal detail	$0.002 per deal ($2.00 per 1,000)	License tiers, FAQs and money-back period, only when scrapeDetails is on.
Review	$0.0005 per review ($0.50 per 1,000)	One review, only when scrapeReviews is on.
Actor start	$0.00005 per run	Charged once when the run starts.

Examples:

• 100 live deals, cards only: 100 × $0.001 = $0.10.
• All ~340 live deals with full details: 340 × ($0.001 + $0.002) = about $1.02.
• The whole ~3,500-deal archive, cards only: about $3.50.
• 100 deals with details and up to 20 reviews each: $0.30 + up to 2,000 × $0.0005 = up to $1.30.
• One deal with all 1,312 reviews: $0.003 + 1,312 × $0.0005 = about $0.66.

You can set a maximum charge per run in the run options. The scraper budgets each deal before fetching it, trims the last deal's reviews to what fits and stops there, so nothing is saved that is not billed. The run's status message tells you how many deals and reviews were saved and why it stopped.

🔁 Schedule and Integrate

To track AppSumo lifetime deals, run it once a day with sort: "newest" and status: "current": every run is a dated snapshot, so you see new launches, price changes and deals that are about to end. Set it up in Apify Schedules. Send the results to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n or a webhook with Apify integrations, so new deals land in your spreadsheet, Slack or CRM automatically.

For a full archive export (status: "all" with no item limit) or all live deals with full details, raise the run timeout in the run options to 30 minutes or more.

❓ FAQ

Does AppSumo have an official API? AppSumo provides licensing integrations for the software companies that sell on its marketplace, not a public API for browsing its deal catalog. This Actor needs no key, account or approval and returns the public deal data a shopper sees: prices, license tiers, ratings, reviews and FAQs.

How do I track new AppSumo lifetime deals? Schedule this Actor daily with status: "current" and sort: "newest", and compare runs by id or startDate. New deals appear at the top, and endDate plus timerReason tell you which deals are about to close.

Can I get expired AppSumo deals? Yes. Set status to all to get the full archive of about 3,500 deals, live and expired. The status field in each row tells them apart.

Do I need an AppSumo account? No. The Actor reads only public deal pages.

Why are some fields empty? Not every deal lists platforms, features, an end date or a video, so os, features, endDate, timerReason or youtubeId can be empty or null. New deals have no rating yet (rating is null, reviewsSummary is empty). plans, faqs, moneyBackDays and reviews stay empty unless you turn on full details or reviews.

How many reviews can I get per deal? All of them. Reviews come newest first, up to maxReviewsPerDeal per deal; set it to the deal's reviewCount (for example 1,312 for WP Reset) to get the full history. Each review is billed once.

What are the best lifetime deal sites besides AppSumo? StackSocial also sells software deals, and Product Hunt lists new product launches. The related scrapers below cover both.
