## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Google Maps Lead Enricher — Local Business Contacts & Emails

Search Google Maps by keyword and location to discover local businesses, extract names, addresses, phones, ratings, and websites, then enrich each contact by crawling their website for emails and social links. This Google Maps lead enricher delivers CRM-ready local business data for sales teams, marketers, and agencies.

### Features

- **Keyword + location search**: Search any business type in any location with Google Maps data
- **Rating filtering**: Filter results by minimum star rating for quality control
- **Website enrichment**: Automatically crawls business websites to find direct emails and phones
- **Multi-format export**: JSON, CSV, HubSpot, Apollo, and Salesforce formats
- **Anti-bot protection**: Built-in stealth arguments and cookie consent handling

### How It Works

The actor opens Google Maps with your search query, scrolls through results to load all listings, and extracts business data from each card. For each business found, it visits the website to find contact information. Results are deduplicated and quality-scored before export.

### Input Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `searchQuery` | string | `dentists in Miami FL` | Google Maps search query |
| `maxResults` | integer | `50` | Max leads to return (1-500) |
| `minRating` | number | `0` | Minimum rating filter (0-5) |
| `enrichContacts` | boolean | true | Crawl websites for contacts |
| `outputFormat` | string | `json` | Export format |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify Proxy | Proxy for reliable scraping |

### Output Example

```json
{
  "name": "Miami Dental Care",
  "address": "123 Main St, Miami, FL",
  "phone": "(305) 555-0123",
  "website": "https://miamidental.com",
  "rating": 4.5,
  "reviewCount": 127,
  "emails": ["dr.smith@miamidental.com"],
  "category": "Dentist"
}
```

### Use Cases

- **Local lead generation**: Build lists of dentists, plumbers, or lawyers in any city
- **Sales prospecting**: Find every coffee shop in Austin with Instagram presence
- **Market research**: Map competitors by location and rating in your service area
- **Real estate**: Discover businesses near properties for commercial real estate

### Cost Estimate

- 50 enriched leads: ~$2.50
- 500 enriched leads: ~$25.00
- Directory-only (no enrichment): ~60% less

### Limitations

- Google Maps may rate-limit aggressive scraping; proxy recommended
- Some businesses have no website — those skip enrichment
- Website contact discovery limited to homepage + contact/about pages

### FAQ

**Q: Can I search multiple locations in one run?** Run the actor separately per location.

**Q: What if Google blocks my request?** Enable Apify Proxy in the input — residential proxies reduce blocking.

**Q: Are phone numbers guaranteed?** Google Maps always shows phone numbers when available. Email extraction depends on the website.
