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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Turo Scraper Scrape car rental listings from [Turo.com](https://turo.com) — the world's largest peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace. Extract vehicle details, pricing, ratings, host information, and availability by location. ### What data can you get from Turo? For each car listing, the scraper returns: - **Vehicle details**: make, model, year, type (car/SUV/truck/minivan), trim - **Pricing**: average daily price in USD - **Ratings & reviews**: host rating (out of 5), completed trip count - **Host info**: host ID, All-Star Host status - **Location**: city, state, country, latitude/longitude, distance from search center - **Images**: high-resolution vehicle photos - **Listing metadata**: new listing flag, delivery availability, tags, badges - **Direct URL**: link to the listing on Turo ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `locations` | string[] | **Required.** City names or airport codes to search. Examples: `"Los Angeles, CA"`, `"San Francisco, CA"`, `"ORD"` | | `startDate` | string | Trip start date (MM/DD/YYYY). Defaults to 3 days from now | | `endDate` | string | Trip end date (MM/DD/YYYY). Defaults to 6 days from now | | `startTime` | string | Pickup time. Options: `06:00` to `22:00` (hourly). Default: `"10:00"` | | `endTime` | string | Return time. Options: `06:00` to `22:00` (hourly). Default: `"10:00"` | | `sortBy` | string | Sort order: `RELEVANCE`, `PRICE`, or `DISTANCE` | | `vehicleType` | string | Filter: `all`, `cars`, `suvs`, `minivans`, or `trucks` | | `maxResults` | integer | Max results per location (1–200). Default: 50 | #### Example input ```json { "locations": ["Los Angeles, CA", "San Francisco, CA"], "startDate": "06/01/2026", "endDate": "06/04/2026", "sortBy": "PRICE", "vehicleType": "suvs", "maxResults": 50 } ```` ### Output ```json { "vehicle_id": 3688538, "make": "Ford", "model": "Mustang", "year": 2026, "type": "CAR", "daily_price": 36.55, "currency": "USD", "rating": 5.0, "trip_count": 7, "host_id": 53896354, "all_star_host": false, "new_listing": false, "distance_miles": 2.8, "city": "Los Angeles", "state": "CA", "country": "US", "latitude": 34.0747, "longitude": -118.2844, "is_delivery": false, "image_url": "https://images.turo.com/media/vehicle/images/anpvPY7FTA6HuUxLblBchg.heic", "url": "https://turo.com/us/en/car-rental/united-states/los-angeles-ca/ford/mustang/3688538", "tags": [], "badges": [], "source_location": "Los Angeles, CA" } ``` ### Use cases - **Price comparison**: Track car rental prices across cities and dates - **Market research**: Analyze the peer-to-peer car rental market by vehicle type, pricing, and ratings - **Travel planning**: Find the best-rated cars in your destination city - **Fleet analytics**: Monitor vehicle availability and pricing trends - **Competitive intelligence**: Compare Turo prices against traditional rental agencies ### Limitations - Turo caps search results at 200 vehicles per location - Detailed pricing breakdown (taxes, fees) requires visiting individual listing pages, which is not included in this version - Only US locations are supported (Turo operates in the US, Canada, UK, and France) - Turo has aggressive anti-bot protection — occasional runs may return fewer results if Cloudflare blocks a particular proxy IP ### Tips for best results 1. **Be specific with locations**: Use "City, State" format (e.g., "Los Angeles, CA") rather than just city names 2. **Set realistic dates**: Turo requires future dates. The scraper defaults to 3–6 days from now 3. **Use fewer locations per run**: Browser reuse works across locations, but each new location adds ~50s of navigation time 4. **Sort by PRICE** if you want the cheapest options first # Actor input Schema ## `locations` (type: `array`): Locations to search (city names or airport codes).
