## 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 Generator with Email & Social Enrichment

Extract business leads from Google Maps with automatic enrichment. Get names, phones, websites, addresses, ratings, reviews - then automatically visit each website to find emails, social media profiles, and score each lead.

### What it does

1. **Searches Google Maps** for any business type and location
2. **Extracts business data** - name, phone, website, address, rating, review count, category
3. **Enriches each lead** by visiting their website:
   - Finds email addresses
   - Finds Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Twitter profiles
4. **Scores each lead** as Hot, Warm, or Cold based on their digital presence:
   - **Hot** = No website or no digital presence (easiest to sell to)
   - **Warm** = Has website but missing email or social media
   - **Cold** = Has everything (website, email, social media)

### Use cases

- **Lead generation** for marketing agencies
- **Prospecting** for B2B sales teams
- **Market research** for any industry
- **Competitor analysis** by location
- **Finding businesses that need marketing help** (Hot leads)

### AI-friendly

This actor has a clean API that any AI model can call. Ask your AI assistant to "find me 20 plumbers in Dallas" and it can use this actor to deliver results.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| searchQuery | string | What to search on Google Maps (e.g., "plumbers in Dallas TX") |
| maxResults | integer | Maximum results to extract (1-100, default: 20) |
| enrichLeads | boolean | Visit websites for email/social enrichment (default: true) |

### Output

Each result includes:

- `name` - Business name
- `phone` - Phone number
- `website` - Website URL
- `address` - Full address
- `rating` - Google Maps rating (1-5)
- `review_count` - Number of reviews
- `category` - Business category
- `emails` - Email addresses found on website
- `social_instagram` - Instagram handle
- `social_facebook` - Facebook page
- `social_tiktok` - TikTok handle
- `social_linkedin` - LinkedIn profile
- `social_twitter` - Twitter/X handle
- `has_website` - true/false
- `has_email` - true/false
- `has_social_media` - true/false
- `lead_score` - hot/warm/cold (or `unknown` if website enrichment failed)
- `maps_url` - Direct Google Maps link

**Note:** Google Maps may throttle or block heavy runs, so very large result counts can return fewer leads than requested.
