## 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/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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.

# README

## Google Maps Low Rating Leads

**Find local businesses below your Google rating threshold - scored and ready for outreach.** This Actor is for reputation-management and local SEO agencies that need qualified prospects, not a raw Google Maps export.

### ✅ What you get / ❌ what this isn't

| You get | This is not |
|---|---|
| Only businesses at or below your rating threshold | Not a generic Maps dump |
| Phone, website, address, category, rating, and Maps URL | Not a review-text scraper |
| A contactability-aware lead score and reasons | Not a claim about review volume |
| Per-query diagnostics in the run `OUTPUT` record | Not affiliated with Google |

### 🔎 Why use this Actor

Raw Maps results make you filter hundreds of businesses that do not have a visible reputation problem. This Actor applies the filter before delivery, so the dataset contains the prospects a reputation-management agency can actually contact.

### 👥 Who it's for

- Reputation-management and review-recovery agencies.
- Local SEO consultants.
- Sales teams prospecting local businesses by category and city.
- Automation builders sending filtered leads to a CRM or spreadsheet.

### ⚙️ How it works

1. Enter searches such as `property management companies in Dallas, TX`.
2. Choose the maximum rating, for example `4.0`.
3. The Actor reads Google's structured Maps search feed through rotating proxies.
4. It emits only matching businesses, plus a per-query summary.

### 📥 Input

```json
{
  "searchQueries": ["property management companies in Dallas, TX"],
  "leadFilter": "low_rating",
  "maxRating": 4.0,
  "maxLeadsPerQuery": 50,
  "countryCode": "us",
  "language": "en"
}
````

Use one category and city per query for the clearest results. Set `leadFilter` to `all` only for diagnostics.

### 📤 Output

```json
{
  "recordType": "reputation_lead",
  "name": "Example Property Management",
  "category": "Property management company",
  "rating": 3.8,
  "phone": "+1 214-555-0123",
  "websiteUrl": "https://example.com",
  "leadScore": 60,
  "leadReasons": ["below-threshold rating (3.8)", "phone number available"],
  "googleMapsUrl": "https://maps.google.com/?cid=...",
  "searchQuery": "property management companies in Dallas, TX"
}
```

### 💵 Pricing

The intended price is **$5 per 1,000 matching leads**, with lower per-result prices on higher Apify plans. You pay for delivered matching rows, not every business scanned.

### 🔁 Automation ideas

- Schedule weekly city/category searches and send datasets to a CRM.
- Run one query per territory for local sales teams.
- Chain results into Website Contact Extractor for email enrichment.
- Deduplicate repeated territories with Lead List Deduplicator.

### ⚠️ Limits

- Google does not return low-rating businesses for every category or city; an empty lead set can be a valid result.
- This version filters on the star rating. It does not claim or filter by review count because the stable bulk endpoint does not expose that field consistently.
- Google may rate-limit individual proxy IPs. The Actor rotates sessions and retries retryable responses.
- Results reflect what Google shows for the requested country and language at run time.

### 🧩 Related Actors

- Google Maps No-Website Leads Scraper - prospects that need a website.
- Website Contact Extractor - emails, phones, and social profiles from business sites.
- Lead List Deduplicator - merge and clean prospect lists before CRM import.

### ❓ FAQ

#### Why is the result count lower than a normal Maps scraper?

Because this Actor charges and returns only businesses that pass your rating threshold.

#### Can I return all businesses?

Yes. Set `leadFilter` to `all` for diagnostics, but the product is designed around filtered low-rating leads.

#### Does it need a proxy?

Yes. Keep the default Apify residential proxy setting for reliable cloud runs.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

Google Maps searches to mine for reputation leads, e.g. "dentists in Phoenix, AZ" or "roofers in Dallas, TX". One category + city per line works best.

## `maxLeadsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many matching leads per search query. You are only charged for leads that match the selected reputation filter. 0 = no limit.

## `leadFilter` (type: `string`):

Return only businesses at or below the rating threshold, or return all businesses with scoring for diagnostics.

## `maxRating` (type: `number`):

Businesses at or below this rating count as low-rating leads.

## `countryCode` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country code used for Google localization (gl parameter), e.g. "us", "gb", "de".

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

Interface language for Google results (hl parameter).

## `minHitRate` (type: `number`):

Stop mining a search early if fewer than this fraction of scanned businesses match the filter after warm-up. This keeps cost-per-lead bounded. Set to 0 to disable.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy to use for Google Maps XHR requests. Keep the default residential pool unless you know what you are doing.

## `debugDumpHtml` (type: `boolean`):

Developer option - stores raw Google result pages in the key-value store for debugging.
