## 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.

## Google Maps Lead Extractor

### What does Google Maps Lead Extractor do?

Google Maps Lead Extractor enables you to get detailed business data, local search results, and customer reviews from [Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps) directly using search terms or listing URLs.

Google Maps Lead Extractor can scrape:

- Local search results (lighter, faster payload)
- Full business details (contact info, address, opening hours, coordinates)
- Paginated customer reviews
- Scored local business leads (combining search and details)
- Optional lead enrichment with website emails and Google web results

### Why scrape Google Maps?

Google Maps has millions of businesses listed and is a great source of data for lead generation, competitive research, reputation management, and local market intelligence.

Here are just some of the ways you could use that data:

- Build detailed contact lists for B2B outreach and sales
- Analyze customer reviews and sentiment for specific competitors
- Track business ratings and popularity in specific areas
- Discover new businesses and map local market trends
