## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Trustpilot Reviews Scraper — Ratings, Reviews & Replies

Export **Trustpilot** reviews for any business into clean, structured data — **rating, title, text, reviewer, country, date, verified flag, business reply** — plus the company's **TrustScore** and total review count. No API key, no login. Pay per review.

> 🏅 **Reliable where HTTP fails.** Trustpilot sits behind an AWS-WAF JS challenge that blocks plain HTTP scrapers. This actor renders each page in a real headless browser (works from datacenter IPs — no pricey residential needed) and reads Trustpilot's own embedded `__NEXT_DATA__`, so you get **complete, consistent reviews with full pagination** instead of half-empty rows.

---

### 🎯 What you get

Per review (one dataset row), with the business denormalized onto each row:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `businessName` / `businessDomain` | Company name + identifying domain |
| `businessTrustScore` | TrustScore (0–5) |
| `businessReviewCount` | Total reviews on Trustpilot |
| `categories` | Trustpilot categories |
| `rating` | Star rating of the review (1–5) |
| `title` / `text` | Review headline + full body |
| `consumerName` / `consumerCountry` | Reviewer name + country |
| `consumerReviewCount` | How many reviews that reviewer has written |
| `isVerified` | Verified-purchase flag |
| `likes` | Useful-votes count |
| `publishedDate` / `experiencedDate` | When posted / when the experience happened |
| `replyMessage` / `replyDate` | The business's reply, if any |
| `language` | Review language |
| `reviewUrl` | Direct link to the review |

---

### 🛠️ Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `businessDomains` | string[] | `["gorgias.com"]` | Domains (`gorgias.com`) or names (`Klarna`). Pass the domain for an exact match. |
| `startUrls` | URL[] | — | Trustpilot review URLs, e.g. `https://www.trustpilot.com/review/gorgias.com`. |
| `maxReviewsPerBusiness` | integer | 100 | Cap per business (controls cost). Reviews come 20 per page. |
| `sort` | enum | `recency` | `recency` (newest first) or `relevance`. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | off | Optional. Trustpilot is usually reachable from datacenter directly; enable only if blocked. |

#### Example
```json
{
  "businessDomains": ["gorgias.com", "klarna.com"],
  "maxReviewsPerBusiness": 200,
  "sort": "recency"
}
````

***

### 💡 Use cases

- **Reputation & competitor monitoring** — track TrustScore and incoming reviews over time (schedule it).
- **Voice-of-customer / product research** — mine complaints, feature requests, and praise at scale.
- **CX analytics** — feed verified reviews + business replies into sentiment/topic models.
- **Lead qualification** — assess vendor reputation before outreach or purchase.

### 💵 Pricing

Pay-per-event, all-inclusive (compute + proxy in the price):

- **Review** (`review-scraped`) — charged per exported review.

Reviews come 20 per page, so per-review cost stays low. No subscription.

### ❓ FAQ

**Need an API key or login?** No.
**Why headless?** Trustpilot blocks plain HTTP with an AWS-WAF challenge; a real browser passes it from datacenter IPs, keeping cost low while staying reliable.
**How many reviews can I get?** All of them — the actor paginates (`?page=N`) up to your `maxReviewsPerBusiness` cap.
**Newest first?** Set `sort: recency` (default).
**Is scraping Trustpilot legal?** This extracts only **public** review data. Comply with Trustpilot's Terms and applicable law (GDPR/CCPA); reviewer names are public on the page.

# Actor input Schema

## `businessDomains` (type: `array`):

Businesses to scrape, e.g. "gorgias.com" or "Klarna". A domain is matched exactly; a plain name is guessed to <name>.com (pass the domain for accuracy).

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Direct Trustpilot pages, e.g. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/gorgias.com . Use instead of, or together with, domains.

## `maxReviewsPerBusiness` (type: `integer`):

Cap on reviews exported per business (controls your cost). Reviews come 20 per page.

## `sort` (type: `string`):

Order of reviews. Recency = newest first (best for monitoring).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional proxy. Trustpilot is usually reachable from datacenter directly; enable a proxy only if you hit blocks.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "businessDomains": [
    "gorgias.com"
  ],
  "maxReviewsPerBusiness": 100,
  "sort": "recency",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `reviews` (type: `string`):

One row per Trustpilot review (with business TrustScore & metadata) in the default dataset.
