Indeed Company Reviews Scraper ⭐

What does Indeed Company Reviews Scraper do?

Indeed Company Reviews Scraper collects employee reviews from Indeed company pages into a clean, structured dataset. Give it one or more Indeed company URLs or company slugs, and it returns every review it can reach: the overall star rating, the five category sub-ratings, the headline and full text, pros and cons, the reviewer's job title, location, employment status, helpful votes, the review date, and a direct link to each review.

The Actor works with www.indeed.com plus country domains such as ca.indeed.com and uk.indeed.co.uk, so you can collect reviews for a single employer or a whole list of companies in one run. Results are saved to the Apify dataset and are ready to export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or your own systems.

Why use Indeed Company Reviews Scraper?

• Build employer intelligence fast - Turn thousands of public reviews into a dataset you can sort, filter, and analyze without copy-paste.
• Compare employers objectively - Pull the same fields for every company so ratings, work-life balance, and management scores line up side by side.
• Feed research and AI workflows - Use the structured output for HR analytics, competitor research, sentiment analysis, or RAG data pipelines.
• Automate and schedule - Run the Actor on a schedule to track how a company's reviews change over time.
• Export anywhere - Download results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, or stream them into Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, or your own app through the Apify API.

Tips for Best Results

• Use the Apify Residential proxy. Indeed blocks datacenter IPs, and residential access is far more reliable.
• Start with a small results_wanted to confirm the fields you need, then scale up.
• Keep max_pages reasonable for large employers. Each page returns 20 reviews.
• Use country-domain URLs when you want reviews from a specific country rather than the default US view.
• Some reviews do not include pros, cons, or every sub-rating. Those fields are simply omitted from that record.
• Company pages change over time. If a field disappears for a company, open an issue and it will be reviewed.
• Set results_wanted to a value above 20 if you need more than the first page of reviews.

Integrations

• Google Sheets - Push review datasets straight into a spreadsheet.
• Webhooks - Trigger downstream systems when a run finishes.
• Make and Zapier - Connect review data to no-code automations.
• API - Fetch the dataset programmatically from the Apify API.
• CSV and Excel - Export for analysts who prefer spreadsheets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an official Indeed reviews API?

No. Indeed does not provide a public reviews API. This Actor collects the publicly visible data from company review pages and returns it as structured JSON.

How many reviews can I collect?

Up to your results_wanted and max_pages limits. Indeed serves reviews 20 per page. Large employers can have thousands of reviews, so raise both limits for a full pull.

Can I collect reviews for non-US companies?

Yes. Use a country-domain URL such as https://ca.indeed.com/cmp/Company or https://uk.indeed.co.uk/cmp/Company to read that domain's reviews.

Can I run this Actor on a schedule?

Yes. Schedule it in Apify Console to refresh review data daily, weekly, or at any interval.

Can I export the data to CSV or Excel?

Yes. The Apify dataset can be downloaded as CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, and more.

Why are some fields missing on some reviews?

Reviewers do not always fill in pros, cons, or every sub-rating. When a field is empty at the source, it is left out of that record rather than saved as an empty value.

Do I need to log in to Indeed?

No. The Actor collects public review data and does not require an Indeed account.

Is it legal to scrape Indeed reviews?

Scraping publicly available data can be legal, but you are responsible for complying with applicable laws, Indeed's terms, and privacy rules. Use the data responsibly.
