G2 reviews scraper first paid run

G2 reviews scraper: cheapest first paid run

Q: What is the cheapest useful first paid run for this G2 reviews scraper?

Use one reviewPageUrls item in the published G2 format g2.com/products/{slug}/reviews, reviewLimit 1, delivery dataset, and dryRun false. reviewPageUrls is required. That is a paid run only when dryRun is false and a default-dataset result row is written. Mix a Capterra URL only after this one-URL schema check.

Q: How much does that G2 reviews scraper first run cost?

Billing is pay-per-event. Live Store events: Actor Start $0.001 (charged when the Actor starts; number of events depends on Actor memory, one event per GB, minimum one event) and result $0.003 for a single result in the default dataset (from $3.00 per 1,000 results). If the run writes 1 result row and charges one Actor Start event, those two events add to $0.001 + (1 × $0.003) = $0.004. The published Store Quickstart line is First paid run (1 URL / reviewLimit 1) ≈ $0.01 at current PPE. There is no separate published per-review billing event.

Q: Why is a mixed G2 + Capterra sample more expensive?

The live Store Quickstart is the same one-URL, reviewLimit 1 input. A later mixed sample with one G2 URL and one Capterra URL would bill a second result event at the same $0.003 rate ($0.001 + 2 × $0.003 = $0.007 if one Start event and two result rows). Same PPE rates; more result events. This page does not suggest a price change.

Q: Does a dryRun count as a first paid G2 reviews scraper run?

No. dryRun true validates input and returns scaffold output without fetching live data, so it does not write payable result rows. A first paid run needs dryRun false so a default-dataset result can be billed at $0.003.

Q: Why start with one G2 URL instead of mixing Capterra?

The live Store Quickstart is one G2 URL and reviewLimit 1. Mix G2 and Capterra in one run only after you validate the schema on that one-URL sample. One G2 URL is the smallest useful paid check for a G2 reviews scraper query. Do not send unpublished fields such as products, source, slug, maxReviewsPerProduct, or emitDeltas.

This page is the smallest useful paid run for a G2 reviews scraper on Apify: one public G2 product review page, reviewLimit 1, then the documented pay-per-event (PPE) add. It is not a full product FAQ. For field lists and routing, use the G2 & Capterra Review Scraper landing.

Live Store listing: G2 & Capterra Review Scraper (taroyamada/g2-capterra-review-intelligence). Store SEO title is G2 Reviews Scraper & Capterra Reviews. Open the Actor: https://apify.com/taroyamada/g2-capterra-review-intelligence.

Documented first-paid PPE if one Actor Start event and one default-dataset result charge: $0.001 + $0.003 = $0.004. The live Store card is from $3.00 / 1,000 results. The published Store Quickstart line is First paid run (1 URL / reviewLimit 1) ≈ $0.01 at current PPE. This page does not suggest a price change.

Smallest useful input JSON

Required input is reviewPageUrls. The published G2 format is g2.com/products/{slug}/reviews. Live schema prefill is https://www.g2.com/products/notion/reviews. Use that one URL for the first paid G2 check. Set reviewLimit to 1 (live schema default, prefill, minimum 1, maximum 5000). Leave delivery on dataset. Set dryRun false.

{
  "reviewPageUrls": [
    "https://www.g2.com/products/notion/reviews"
  ],
  "reviewLimit": 1,
  "delivery": "dataset",
  "dryRun": false
}

Do not add a Capterra URL on this first paid run. Mix G2 and Capterra only after this one-URL schema check. Do not send unpublished fields such as products, source, slug, maxReviewsPerProduct, or emitDeltas. There is no login, cookie, or private-review API field.

Documented PPE cost math

Prices below are the live Store events. They are not invented rates. Published events are Actor Start at $0.001 and result at $0.003 per default-dataset item. The live Store card is from $3.00 / 1,000 results. Platform usage is free. You are not charged for Apify platform usage, only the fixed event price.

	This first-run / live Store Quickstart	After first paid: mix Capterra
`reviewPageUrls`	one G2 URL (`g2.com/products/notion/reviews`)	two URLs (G2 Notion + Capterra Notion)
`reviewLimit`	1 (live schema default)	raise only after the one-URL row is useful
`delivery`	`dataset`	omitted; schema default `dataset`
`dryRun`	false	false
If one Start event and one result row per URL	$0.001 + (1 × $0.003) = $0.004	$0.001 + (2 × $0.003) = $0.007

That math uses only the published PPE numbers. The live billed event title is result at $0.003 for a single result in the default dataset (apify-default-dataset-item). The published README output is a per-product object with nested reviews[]. There is no separate published per-review billing event. Extra Actor Start events apply if memory is above 1 GB (one event per GB). dryRun true is not a paid run. The Store Quickstart’s own first-paid line is ≈ $0.01; the event add is $0.004 when one Start event and one result row charge.

Total cost mainly follows how many reviewPageUrls you process. Keep reviewLimit at 1 for the cheapest first success, then raise it. Lower reviewLimit is not a different billed event. This page does not suggest a price change.

What this first run returns

A good first run gives you a per-product row with ratings and review samples, plus status / warnings when a page is thin, blocked, or structurally changed. Documented product fields include source (g2), productName, overallRating, totalReviewCount, ratingBreakdown, and nested reviews[] (title, rating, date, author, body, pros, cons, verified).

Reviews are extracted from server-rendered HTML on public G2 review pages. Blocked requests are reported honestly. This independent Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by G2 or Capterra. Do not use the output to target individual reviewers.

What not to add yet

Do not add a second reviewPageUrls item until the one-URL output is useful.
Do not mix a Capterra URL until after this G2 schema check.
Do not raise reviewLimit above 1 until the nested reviews[] shape is approved.
Do not invent products, source, slug, maxReviewsPerProduct, or emitDeltas. They are not in the live schema.
Do not set delivery to webhook until the payload shape is approved.
