Teachers Pay Teachers Scraper

Pull educational resources from Teachers Pay Teachers (TpT) at scale — prices, sale prices, quality scores, ratings, grade levels, subjects, formats, standards alignment, teacher-author store details, and optional individual buyer reviews. Search by keyword, paste a single resource link, or point it at a whole store to pull that seller's entire catalogue. Built for curriculum companies, edtech market-research teams, and TpT sellers who need structured competitive data across thousands of resources without copying it off one product page at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• Three ways in — keyword, resource URL, or whole-store URL — search a term like "fractions", paste a /Product/... link for one resource, or paste a /store/... link to pull a competitor's full catalogue. Mix all three freely in a single run.
• 19 grade-level filters — PreK through Grade 12 plus Homeschool, Adult Education, Higher Education, Staff, and Not Grade Specific — so you only collect resources for the audience you sell to.
• 20+ subject and resource-type filters — Math, English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, World Languages, Arts, Music, Special Education, and ESL/EFL/ELL subjects, plus format filters for worksheets, task cards, Google Apps, PDF, PowerPoint, Easel activities, and more.
• Free-only and price-range targeting — set a minimum and maximum USD price, or set the maximum to 0 to return only free resources — the fastest way to map a market's freebies.
• Quality-score threshold (0–5 scale) — TpT gives each resource an aggregate quality score out of 5; filter to 3.0+, 3.5+, 4.0+, 4.5+, or 5.0 (top rated) to surface only proven best-sellers.
• Individual buyer reviews on demand — flip one switch to collect each resource's reviews as separate rows: reviewer, numeric rating (0–4), the qualitative satisfaction label, comment text, grades taught, and buyer location — the raw material for sentiment analysis.
• Every resource carries standards alignment — Common Core and other academic standards notation (e.g. 3.NF.A.1) attached to each resource, so you can map a catalogue to a curriculum framework.
• Two clean record types, parent-to-child linked — product rows and review rows, each review joined to its resource by product id and URL, delivered in separate Resources and Reviews tabs.
• On-sale detection and four sort orders — filter to currently discounted resources and order results by relevance, rating, price (low or high), or newest.

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
searchQueries	string[]	["fractions"]	Search terms (e.g. "fractions", "sight words") and/or TpT links. A resource page (/Product/...) returns that resource; a store page (/store/...) returns that seller's resources. Each entry is processed on its own.

Filters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
gradeLevels	string[]	[]	Only include resources for these grade levels. 19 options from PreK / Preschool through 12th grade, plus Higher education, Adult education, Homeschool, Staff, and Not grade specific. Empty means all grades.
subjects	string[]	[]	Only include resources in these subject areas: Math, English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies / History, Specialty, Arts, Music, World Languages, Holidays / Seasonal, English Language Learning (ESL/EFL/ELL), Special Education, For All Subjects. Empty means all subjects.
resourceTypes	string[]	[]	Only include these resource types or file formats: Worksheets, Activities, Task cards, Centers, Assessment, Lesson plans, Games, Printables, Projects, Google Apps, PDF, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Word, Easel activity, Internet activities. Empty means all types.
onSaleOnly	boolean	false	Only include resources that are currently on sale.
minRating	string	"0"	Only include resources with at least this overall quality score. Options: Any score, 3.0 & up, 3.5 & up, 4.0 & up, 4.5 & up, 5.0 & up (top rated). TpT shows an aggregate quality score out of 5.
priceMin	number	null	Only include resources priced at or above this amount in USD. Empty means no minimum.
priceMax	number	null	Only include resources priced at or below this amount in USD. Set to 0 to return only free resources. Empty means no maximum.

Results

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
sort	string	"relevance"	Order for search and store results: Relevance, Rating, Price: low to high, Price: high to low, Newest. Ignored for direct resource URLs. "Price: high to low" ranks the highest-priced resources within a relevance-based sample of up to 500 results, so on very large result sets the ranking is over that sample rather than the entire catalogue.
maxResults	integer	100	Maximum resources to collect for each search term or store. Set to 0 to collect everything (a broad search or large store can hold thousands).

Reviews

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
includeReviews	boolean	false	Also collect each resource's individual ratings and reviews as separate rows. Adds rows and cost — a popular resource can have thousands of ratings. Off by default.
maxReviewsPerProduct	integer	50	When reviews are enabled, the maximum number of reviews to collect per resource. Set to 0 to collect all reviews.

Output

Every row carries a recordType field — product or review — so you can filter cleanly downstream. The Overview tab holds every record; the Resources and Reviews tabs are clean, type-filtered subsets of the same run.

Tips for Best Results

• Point a store URL at a competitor to pull their whole catalogue. Paste a /store/... link with maxResults: 0 to collect every resource a seller lists — the fastest way to build a full competitive picture.
• Leave reviews off unless you need sentiment. Reviews add a row per review, and a popular resource can carry thousands. Turn includeReviews on only for the runs where buyer feedback matters, and cap maxReviewsPerProduct to keep volume in check.
• Set the maximum price to zero to map the freebies. priceMax: 0 returns only free resources — a clean way to see what a market gives away versus what it charges for.
• Filter to 4.5 & up (or 5.0 for top rated) to skip the long tail. The minRating threshold runs on TpT's 0–5 aggregate quality score, so setting a high floor surfaces only proven best-sellers and you spend results on resources buyers actually rate highly.
• Start with a modest maxResults to test filters. Run 20–50 first to confirm your grade, subject, and format filters return the right resources, then scale up.
• Combine terms and links in one run. Mix keywords, resource URLs, and store URLs in searchQueries — each entry is processed independently with the same filters applied to search and store results.
• Filters are ignored for direct resource URLs. A /Product/... link always returns that exact resource; grade, subject, price, and sort settings only shape search and store results.

Pricing

From $7.50 per 1,000 resources + $0.50 per 1,000 reviews — undercuts the market for TpT resource extraction while keeping optional reviews cheap and pay-only-if-you-use-them. This actor is billed pay-per-event: you are charged per resource and per review collected. No compute or time-based charges — you pay only for the resources and reviews you collect. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; loyalty discounts apply automatically on the Apify platform.

Event	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Per 1,000 resources	$9.00	$8.50	$8.00	$7.50
Per 1,000 reviews	$0.60	$0.56	$0.53	$0.50

Example total costs at the Gold rate:

What you collect	Resources cost	Reviews cost	Total
500 resources, no reviews	$3.75	$0.00	$3.75
500 resources + 20 reviews each (10,000 reviews)	$3.75	$5.00	$8.75
2,000 resources, no reviews	$15.00	$0.00	$15.00

A "resource" is one product row; a "review" is one review row. Reviews are only collected when you enable them. Platform fees (storage) are additional and depend on your Apify plan.
