Why use this google reviews scraper

Most google reviews scraper solutions fall into one of two camps: free open-source libraries that break every few months when the upstream site changes, or expensive SaaS tools that charge $99-$399/month for the data layer plus a dashboard UI you may not need.

This Apify Actor sits in the middle: same structured data the SaaS tools ship, but priced per run instead of per month, with a hosted infrastructure that handles proxies, retries, and captcha solving so you don't have to.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
skus	array	,	List of Google Shopping SKUs / catalogids to fetch reviews for. Either skus or gpcids is required.
gpcids	array	,	List of Google product cluster IDs. Use these directly if you already have them, saves one lookup per item.
country	string	us	ISO 2-letter country code (e.g. nl, us, de, fr).
max_pages	integer	3	How many review pages to fetch per product (each page ≈ 10 reviews).
concurrency	integer	25	Concurrent product fetches (1-100). Higher = faster but heavier on the upstream API.

Output

Every run pushes results to the Apify dataset as JSON records. Each record contains the structured fields surfaced by the google reviews scraper, fields, IDs, timestamps, and any nested objects. You can:

• Download the dataset as JSON, JSONL, CSV, or Excel from the Apify console
• Stream results via the Apify API for use in your own application
• Pipe results to webhooks, S3, BigQuery, or any of Apify's 30+ integrations
• Diff today's run against yesterday's to detect changes (new entries, removed entries, modified fields)

FAQ

Is this google reviews scraper free?

The Actor itself is hosted on Apify with pay-per-event pricing, you only pay for what you actually scrape. There's no monthly subscription and no minimum spend. The first few runs typically cost less than a coffee. For long-running daily jobs, your monthly bill scales with the volume of data you pull.

How does this google reviews scraper compare to existing tools?

Most off-the-shelf google reviews scraper alternatives are either fragile open-source scripts that break every few months, or expensive SaaS subscriptions starting at $99-$399/month. This Actor sits in between: hosted infrastructure that handles proxy rotation and retries, but priced per run.

What input does the google reviews scraper accept?

The full input schema is rendered as a form on the Apify Store page, you can run a job by filling out a few fields with no code. The schema also accepts raw JSON if you're calling the Actor via the Apify API from your own service. See the Input section above for the field list.

How accurate is the google reviews scraper data?

The Actor scrapes data directly from the source, so accuracy matches what a human user would see on the page. There's no third-party cache or middleware, every run returns the live state. If the upstream site throttles requests, the Actor handles retries and proxy rotation transparently and surfaces a structured error in the dataset's errors field rather than failing silently.

Can I run this google reviews scraper on a schedule?

Yes, Apify has built-in scheduling. You can set the Actor to run hourly, daily, or weekly, and pipe results to webhooks, S3, or your data warehouse via the Apify integrations. Most teams schedule the google reviews scraper as a daily task and incrementally diff against the previous run to detect changes.

Pricing

This google reviews scraper uses Apify's pay-per-event pricing, every successful record costs a small fixed amount, so your bill scales linearly with usage. There's no monthly subscription and no minimum spend. See the Apify Store page for the current per-event price; expect typical workloads to cost a few dollars per run.
