## 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
```

# README

## Google Maps Reviews Pro

Multi-business Google Maps reviews scraper with built-in sentiment, topic clustering, responder tracking, time-series trend, and competitor delta analysis.

### What does Google Maps Reviews Pro do?

It wraps the popular `compass/Google-Maps-Reviews-Scraper` upstream and layers an analysis pass on top: per-review sentiment with negation handling, topic tagging across nine common categories, owner-response stats, 12-month time-series with `improving / flat / declining` trend label, and pairwise competitor delta. Optional LLM-ready markdown summaries drop straight into agent prompts.

### AI / RAG / Agent

Built for AI reputation-management agents and local-SEO bots. Set `output_format=llm_ready` to get a pre-summarized Markdown block per business (rating trend, top complaints, top praise, response gap, competitor delta) that a model can ingest in a single prompt. Per-review records carry `sentiment`, `topics`, and `is_owner_response` as embedding metadata. Compatible with **LangChain**, **LlamaIndex**, **Pinecone**, **Weaviate**, **Chroma**, and any **MCP**-aware agent runtime.

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient
from langchain.schema import Document
from langchain_community.vectorstores import Weaviate
from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings

client = ApifyClient("APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("you/google-maps-reviews-pro").call(run_input={
    "placeIds": ["ChIJN1t_tDeuEmsRUsoyG83frY4", "ChIJrTLr-GyuEmsRBfy61i59si0"],
    "maxReviews": 200,
    "output_format": "llm_ready",
    "includeCompetitorDelta": True,
})

docs = [
    Document(
        page_content=item["llm_summary"],
        metadata={

### Features

- Per-review sentiment (positive / neutral / negative) with `sentiment_score` in \[-1, 1] - lexicon-based, no API key, no per-call cost.
- Topic clustering - `food_quality`, `service`, `wait_time`, `cleanliness`, `value_pricing`, `ambience`, `staff_friendliness`, `parking`, `accessibility`, aggregated into `topic_distribution` and ranked into `top_complaint_topics` / `top_praise_topics`.
- Responder tracking - response rate, average time-to-respond in days, owner reply sentiment distribution.
- Time-series breakdown - last 12 months of review counts + average rating, with derived `recent_trend`.
- Competitor delta mode - given 2-5 businesses, returns pairwise rating delta, review-count delta, common complaints, unique complaints per side.
- LLM-ready output - set `output_format=llm_ready` and every record gets a `llm_summary_md` markdown block.
- Reviewer profile signals - local-guide flag, total reviews submitted, photo-uploader pattern (shill detection).

### Use cases

- Chain reputation managers monitoring 20-500 locations who currently glue together a raw review scrape + sentiment notebook + dashboard.
- Local SEO agencies running monthly client reports - drop the LLM markdown straight into the report template.
- Restaurant groups / multi-location service businesses with response-rate / time-to-respond / recent-trend KPIs.
- Competitive intel teams - `competitor_delta` answers "what do customers complain about us vs the competition?"
- AI product builders feeding local-business data into LLM workflows who need pre-summarized markdown, not raw JSON.

### FAQ

**Q: Is this legal?**
A: Yes - reviews are public on Google Maps and we go through the upstream `compass/Google-Maps-Reviews-Scraper`, which scrapes the public Maps frontend (not the paid Google Places API). Use the data per Google's Terms of Service and applicable law.

**Q: Why might a run fail?**
A: (1) Upstream scrape fails when a place is not found or Maps blocks the session - the row comes back with `available: false` and a `reason`. (2) Malformed reviews crash the analysis pass - same handling. (3) Pushing `max_reviews_per_business` above 500 on many businesses at once triggers rate limits - lower concurrency or split the run.

**Q: How fresh is the data?**
A: Live at crawl time. Reviews are read directly from the public Maps page during the run. `review_sort: newest` returns most recent first - typically within minutes of being posted.

**Q: Can I schedule this daily or weekly?**
A: Yes - weekly is the standard cadence for chain reputation monitoring (20-500 locations). Daily for crisis-watch on a single high-volume business. Use Apify Schedules; combine with `recent_trend` to alert on `declining` flips.

**Q: How do I push results into a CRM or BI tool?**
A: Two paths. (1) `output_format: csv_friendly` flattens reviews for direct import into BI dashboards (Looker, Power BI, Sheets). (2) `output_format: llm_ready` drops `llm_summary_md` straight into agent prompts or a client report template. Zapier/Make/n8n forward business-summary records to HubSpot, Salesforce, or a Slack channel on negative-trend alerts.

**Q: How is this different from `compass/google-maps-reviews`?**
A: `compass/google-maps-reviews` is the upstream raw-scraper layer - it pulls reviews and exits. This actor wraps that scrape and layers an intelligence pass on top: per-review sentiment with negation handling, 9-topic clustering with aggregated `top_complaint_topics` / `top_praise_topics`, owner-responder metrics (response rate, time-to-respond, reply sentiment), 12-month time-series with `improving / flat / declining` trend label, pairwise competitor delta, and LLM-ready markdown summaries. You are paying for the analysis layer, not the scrape - if all you need is raw reviews, use the upstream directly.

**Q: How accurate is the sentiment classifier?**
A: ~85% on English consumer reviews against human labels in spot-check sets; lexicon-based with 2-token negation lookback. Non-English (es, fr, de) runs ~70-75%.

**Q: How does PPE pricing actually work here?**
A: $0.010 per `business_summary`, $0.001 per `review_record`, $0.020 per `competitor_delta_record`, $0.005 per `llm_summary`. A 100-review business in JSON mode is about $0.11; a 5-business competitor delta with 100 reviews each is about $0.65.

### Pricing

Pay-per-event:

| Event | Price | When charged |
|---|---|---|
| `business_summary` | $0.010 | Once per business successfully analyzed. |
| `review_record` | $0.001 | Once per individual review extracted. |
| `competitor_delta_record` | $0.020 | Once per pairwise comparison. |
| `llm_summary` | $0.005 | Once per business when `output_format=llm_ready`. |

Typical 100-review business in JSON mode: $0.11. 5-business `competitor_delta` with 100 reviews each: $0.65.

### FAQ

**Q: Does this cost extra Google Places API credits?**
A: No - we use the upstream `compass/Google-Maps-Reviews-Scraper` actor (which scrapes the public Maps frontend), not the paid Google Places API.

**Q: How accurate is the sentiment classifier?**
A: ~85% accuracy on English consumer reviews against human labels in our spot-check sets. Lexicon-based with negation lookback (`not great` flips). Non-English performance is degraded - sentiment on `es`, `fr`, `de` lexicons is roughly 70-75%.

**Q: Why are some businesses returning `available=false`?**
A: Either the upstream scrape failed (place not found / Maps blocked the session) or our analysis pass crashed on a malformed review. The `reason` field tells you which.

**Q: Can I get one row per review for a CSV export?**
A: Yes - either set `output_format=csv_friendly` (flattens at write time) or use the `Reviews (one per row)` view tab in the dataset preview, which unwinds the reviews array.

### Changelog

See [CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md).

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

batch\_analysis = analyze N businesses independently. competitor\_delta = pairwise side-by-side comparison of 2-5 businesses. single\_business\_deep = max-depth on one business (largest review pull, full per-review enrichment).

## `business_inputs` (type: `array`):

Up to 50 Google Maps URLs, place IDs (ChIJ...), or freeform business names. Mixed types accepted. Names are resolved by the upstream Maps actor.

## `max_reviews_per_business` (type: `integer`):

Cap on how many reviews to pull per business from the upstream scraper. Higher = better stats but slower and more expensive upstream cost.

## `review_sort` (type: `string`):

How Google Maps should sort reviews before we take the first N. 'newest' is best for trend analysis; 'lowest\_rated' is best for surfacing complaints fast.

## `language` (type: `string`):

Language code for reviews. Sentiment and topic lexicons currently work best for English; other languages still return raw reviews but may have lower analysis accuracy.

## `include_owner_responses` (type: `boolean`):

When true, captures owner replies on each review and computes responder metrics (response rate, time-to-response, owner reply sentiment). Strong reputation-management signal.

## `include_sentiment_analysis` (type: `boolean`):

Lexicon-based sentiment scoring (positive / neutral / negative) with negation handling. No API key needed - runs entirely in-actor.

## `include_topic_clustering` (type: `boolean`):

Detects topics in each review using keyword sets: food\_quality, service, wait\_time, cleanliness, value\_pricing, ambience, staff\_friendliness, parking, accessibility.

## `include_time_series` (type: `boolean`):

Monthly review count + average rating for the last 12 months. Determines trend (improving / flat / declining).

## `include_reviewer_profiles` (type: `boolean`):

For each review, flag local guide status, # of reviews submitted, photo-uploader pattern. Slower (deeper scrape) but useful for spotting suspicious / shill reviews.

## `output_format` (type: `string`):

json = full structured business + reviews records. llm\_ready = adds a markdown summary block per business optimized for LLM prompt injection. csv\_friendly = flat one-row-per-review (no nested arrays).

## `competitor_delta_max_pairs` (type: `integer`):

Only used in competitor\_delta mode. Caps the number of pairwise comparisons emitted. With 5 businesses there are 10 pairs; this caps that to the most-divergent N.

## `apify_proxy_groups` (type: `array`):

Proxy groups passed through to the compass/Google-Maps-Reviews-Scraper upstream actor. RESIDENTIAL is most reliable for Google Maps.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

Number of businesses processed in parallel. Each business triggers one upstream actor call; raise carefully.

# Actor output Schema

## `datasetItems` (type: `string`):

Narrow, token-efficient slice of every record. Consumer: LLM agents (Claude, GPT, LangChain tools), MCP hosts, dashboards. Review fields: business, rating, review count, sentiment distribution, top topics, response rate, recent trend.

## `datasetItemsDetailed` (type: `string`):

All fields for every record. Consumer: humans browsing the dataset in the Apify UI, RAG ingest pipelines, and full backups. Larger payload — not recommended as a direct LLM tool response.

## `datasetItemsUnwind` (type: `string`):

Same records, but each element of the `reviews` array is promoted to its own row. Consumer: Zapier / Make / n8n / Google Sheets users who want one row per item, and LLM agents that prefer flat rows over nested arrays.

## `datasetItemsMcp` (type: `string`):

First 50 overview records as a clean JSON array. Wrap on the agent side in an MCP tool-call response envelope, e.g. `{ "ok": true, "data": <this array>, "meta": { "actor": "google-maps-reviews-pro", "count": <len>, "view": "overview" } }`. Consumer: MCP servers, Claude Desktop, Cursor, OpenAI Assistants tool calls.

## `datasetItemsCsv` (type: `string`):

Spreadsheet-friendly export of the overview view. Consumer: humans, sales-ops teams, Excel / Google Sheets users.
