## Pricing

from $0.40 / 1,000 listings

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Otomoto Scraper

Get **Otomoto.pl car listings** (Poland's largest vehicle marketplace) from any search: **title, make, model, version, price, Otomoto price evaluation, year, mileage, fuel, gearbox, engine capacity, power, country of origin, city and region, dealer or private seller, dealer name, main photo, date added**. Type a make and model ("toyota corolla") or paste search URLs copied from otomoto.pl with your filters and sort order.

Plain HTTP requests, no browser: **no login, no account, no cookies**. The Actor reads only the public search pages, one page at a time per search with a pause between pages, and respects Otomoto's robots.txt.

### Typical uses

- **Car dealers and importers**: find cars priced below the market (`priceEvaluation: BELOW`) in Poland, every morning (schedule a run).
- **Price monitoring and valuation**: Polish market prices of a model by year, mileage and fuel.
- **Import and export**: compare Polish prices with Germany or the Netherlands (see our AutoScout24 and Marktplaats scrapers).
- **Spreadsheets, BI and AI agents**: clean rows for Google Sheets, n8n, Make, Zapier or an MCP client.

### What you get

One row per listing:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `search`, `searchUrl` | Your search and the page read |
| `listingId`, `url` | Otomoto listing ID and link |
| `title`, `make`, `model`, `version` | Vehicle as listed |
| `price`, `currency`, `priceIsGross` | Price shown (usually `PLN`), and whether it includes VAT |
| `priceEvaluation` | Otomoto's own price indicator: `BELOW`, `IN` or `ABOVE` the market; `null` when Otomoto shows none |
| `year`, `mileageKm` | Production year, mileage in km |
| `fuel`, `gearbox` | As shown on the site (in Polish, e.g. `Benzyna`, `Hybryda`, `Automatyczna`) |
| `engineCapacityCm3`, `powerHp` | Engine capacity in cm3, power in hp (KM) |
| `countryOrigin` | Country the car comes from, when the seller gives it |
| `city`, `region` | Where the vehicle is (town and voivodeship) |
| `sellerType` | `dealer` or `private` |
| `dealerName` | Dealers only, the business name they publish; always `null` for private sellers |
| `promoted` | Paid placement on the search page |
| `imageUrl` | Main photo (640x480) |
| `createdAt` | When the listing was added (UTC) |
| `shortDescription` | The seller's one-line summary shown on the card |
| `page`, `position`, `totalResults` | Where the listing was, and how many results Otomoto reports |
| `observedAt` | When the page was read (UTC) |

Missing values are always `null`, never guessed. Nothing is collected about private sellers (no name, phone or seller ID). A search without listings (or blocked, or unreadable) gets one free row with `found: false`, a `status` and a `message`.

### Input

```json
{
  "searches": ["toyota corolla", "https://www.otomoto.pl/osobowe/volkswagen/golf?search%5Bfilter_float_year%3Afrom%5D=2018"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 96
}
```

- **searches**: one per line, up to 100 per run: a make, a make and model (`"skoda octavia"`, `"bmw/seria-3"`), or a search URL from otomoto.pl (passenger cars, motorcycles, vans or trucks). To use filters (price, year, mileage, region, fuel) or a sort order, search on the site, set them, and copy the address bar.
- **maxResultsPerSearch**: 1 to 640 (default 96). Otomoto shows 32 listings per page; the Actor reads up to 20 pages per search. For more, split a search with filters (price bands, years, regions).

Listings found by two of your searches are returned and billed once.

### Pricing

Pay per event: **one event per listing returned**, plus a small start fee per run.

| Plan | Per listing | Per 1,000 listings |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0.0005 | $0.50 |
| Bronze | $0.00045 | $0.45 |
| Silver | $0.0004 | $0.40 |
| Gold | $0.0004 | $0.40 |

Free: searches without listings, unknown makes or models, pages that are blocked or cannot be read, duplicates and input mistakes. On the free Apify plan, a run reads up to 3 searches and 32 listings per search.

### FAQ

**Is it legal?** The Actor reads only pages anyone can see without an account, at a slow pace, and respects robots.txt. It keeps no data about private persons (no private seller name, phone or ID). Otomoto's terms of use restrict automated access: you are responsible for how you use the data. This is not legal advice.

**Why are some searches empty or BLOCKED?** If Otomoto refuses a request (rate limit or bot check), the Actor stops that search and charges nothing beyond the results already delivered. If this happens after the first page, the run summary warns that the search stopped early and its results are partial. It never solves or bypasses a check. Try again later or with fewer searches per run.

**Why NOT_FOUND for my make or model?** Otomoto uses its own model names in URLs (e.g. `bmw/seria-3`, `mercedes-benz/klasa-c`). When it does not know a name it shows all cars instead: the Actor detects this and returns a free row rather than unrelated listings. Search on the site and paste the URL.

**Can I get the full description, equipment list, VIN or all photos?** Not in this version: it reads the search pages only. Need a field? Open an issue.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
