Editor's notes
For broad extraction of places, contacts and hours, Google Maps Scraper by compass is the most used option here, with 41,848 users in the last 30 days, a 97% success rate and $4.00 per 1,000 results. For reviews only, Google Maps Reviews Scraper (compass) has a 100% success rate at $0.60 per 1,000 results, though it has fewer reviews (198) than the general tool. If you need contact details taken from business websites, Google Maps Email Extractor (lukaskrivka) fits that job at $5.00 per 1,000 results with a 94% success rate. Google Maps Extractor (compass) suits keyword and category searches with filters. Two cheaper actors, Google Maps Scraper by vortex_data ($1.00 per 1,000, 807 users) and the scraperlink listing ($0.50 per 1,000, 711 users), have smaller review counts (19 and 31), so their ratings rest on less feedback.
Things to know before scraping Google Maps
- Google Maps results vary with the search location, language and query wording, so repeat runs of the same search may return different places.
- Email extraction depends on what each business publishes on its own website, so many places will return no email address.
- Google Maps actively limits automated access, so expect blocks and retries at larger volumes and check whether an actor uses proxies.
Google's Terms of Service restrict automated scraping, and collecting reviewer names, contact details or job titles may be subject to personal-data rules such as the GDPR. This is general information and not legal advice; check the terms and applicable law before you scrape.

How to read this table
- Users (30 days): distinct Apify accounts that ran the actor in the last 30 days. The best single signal that an actor still works on the live site.
- Success (30 days): share of public runs that finished successfully. Below about 85% usually means the target site changed and the actor is struggling.
- Price: pay-per-event actors charge per result and include Apify's compute. "Free" actors charge no fee, but you pay Apify platform usage for the compute they use, which costs more for browser-based scrapers.
- Last run: if nobody has run an actor for weeks, treat it as unmaintained.
