EuroScrape: ready-to-use data scrapers (Apify Actors)

Cloud scrapers for hotel and flight prices, public tenders, second-hand marketplaces, app reviews, company data and website technologies. No code and no servers needed: run them on Apify, schedule them, get alerts, and pay only per result.

This repository holds input templates and real sample outputs for each Actor, plus code snippets to run them from your own scripts. (The Actors’ source code is not public.)

📦 Actors

Each run also costs $0.003 to start. Apify subscribers get 10–30% off.

🚀 Run an Actor from your code

Get your API token in Apify Console → Settings → Integrations.

curl

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/euroscrape~google-hotels-prices/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @examples/google-hotels-prices/input.json

Python (pip install apify-client)

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("euroscrape/eu-public-tenders").call(run_input={
    "keywords": ["software"],
    "countries": ["DE", "FR", "PL"],
    "publishedWithinDays": 7,
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item.get("title"), item.get("deadline"), item.get("url"))

JavaScript (npm install apify-client)

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('euroscrape/eu-marketplace-deals').call({ searchQueries: ['nintendo switch oled'] });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.filter((x) => x.type === 'listing').slice(0, 5));

🤖 Use with AI agents (MCP)

Every Actor here works as a tool for Claude, Cursor, VS Code and any MCP client, through Apify’s hosted MCP server. Add one URL to your client and the Actors you list become callable tools:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "euroscrape": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=euroscrape/eu-electricity-prices,euroscrape/vat-validator",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

No token in a file? Open mcp.apify.com and connect your client with OAuth instead.

Ready-made sets, one server URL per need:

All of them are pay-per-event Actors: an agent can also pay per run without an Apify account (agentic payments: x402, Skyfire). Each folder in examples/ has the input an agent should send and a real result.

📁 Examples

Each folder in examples/ has a page for its Actor (what it returns, API call, MCP URL, price) and:

• input.json: a working input you can paste in Apify Console or send to the API,
• output-sample.json: one real result (personal data removed).

🔔 Monitoring

Hotels, tenders, second-hand marketplaces, Kleinanzeigen and company registries have a monitoring mode: set a monitorName, schedule the Actor (Apify Console → Schedules), and each run returns only what’s new (new tenders, new listings, new companies, price drops…). Hotels, tenders and marketplaces can also push alerts to Slack, Telegram, Discord or any webhook.

📊 Data pages, updated daily

Two small tables rebuilt every day from official open data: the cheapest electricity hours in 28 European bidding zones and the cheapest fuel around twenty French cities. Each has a JSON copy.

✈️ Flight price tracker

A template repository that tracks Google Flights prices in Git: one CSV per route, updated every day by GitHub Actions, with a Telegram or Discord alert when a fare drops. One Python file, no dependency: EuroScrape/flight-price-tracker.

🤖 MCP server

All twenty Actors as tools for Claude, Cursor and any MCP client, with a spending cap per call: EuroScrape/euroscrape-mcp. In Claude Desktop it installs in one click from the latest release, and it is listed in the official MCP registry as io.github.EuroScrape/euroscrape-mcp.

📚 Articles & guides

Real numbers, real code, from building and running these Actors:

• Check a hotel’s price on every booking site (and spot rate-parity gaps) without writing a scraper
• Same used iPhone, 62% price gap - comparing second-hand prices across 18 European countries
• 57% of the contract lots I sampled got a single bid - mining EU tenders and award winners from TED
• Find websites running WordPress, WooCommerce or Shopify - and the ones that need your help
• Build B2B lead lists from official company registers (France SIRENE and UK Companies House)
• The same flight cost $362 or $162 depending on the day - building a fare calendar from Google Flights
• Get every new 1-star review of your app in Slack (App Store and Google Play, 58 countries)
• When a Vinted search finds nothing, it quietly shows you popular junk - here is how to detect it
• Zero-rating an intra-EU invoice? Without a VIES consultation number, you may owe the VAT yourself
• France publishes every property sale as open data - most people compute the price per m² wrong
• Night power is not the cheapest, and the cheapest fuel station is often a ghost - two things official energy data taught me
• I matched 2,518 apartment sales to their energy certificates - F and G homes sold 16% cheaper per m²
• Companies file 1 French building permit in 5 and build 3 homes in 4 - and the register names them 8 months before the site opens
• A 4.8-star shop tells you nothing - across 444 German online shops the rating fits in a third of a point, while the share of 1 and 2 star reviews varies 11x
• The median “PlayStation 5” on Kleinanzeigen costs 55 euros - three traps in second-hand price data
