Google News scrapers compared

Which Google News scraper should you use? We rank 309 ready-made tools by how many people actually used them and how often their runs succeeded in the last 30 days, from official Apify Store statistics updated daily.

Quick answer

Short answer (Apify Store data, 2026-10-30): the most used Google News scraper is Google News Scraper (Pay Per Event) — 600 users in the last 30 days, 99.4% of runs succeeded, listed at $4.00 per 1,000 billed “dataset items” events. Most reliable with 300+ runs: Google News Scraper (100.0%).

At a glance: 309 tools; 56 of 60 displayed tools have recorded 30-day run completion (20+ public runs); the current usage pick accounts for 33% of all reported users. Dataset file date: 2026-10-30; individual observation dates vary or are unknown.

Comparison evidence

Sorting covers only the displayed subset (at most 60 tools), not the entire store or every matching actor. Success means run completion, not output accuracy. Review sorting uses review count, not rating. Unknown evidence stays last; ties retain original order.

Download the Google News comparison CSV (60 displayed tools). The source URL (url) is preserved for provenance; vendor_url is the approved buying destination, blank when unavailable. Affiliate vendor links may earn ScraperWatch a commission, disclosed per row in affiliate_disclosure. Includes snapshot_date (the dataset file date, not tool observation), observed_on (blank when unknown), observation_status (fetched, carried_forward or unknown), carried_forward, usage, recorded runs and reviews (blank when unavailable; 0 means recorded zero), success rate (0–1), pricing model (pricing_model), exact selected billing-event key (event), listed USD per 1,000 selected events (per_k), and USD per recorded run start (start). These are listed rates, not a workload quote: event units differ and additional event or platform charges may apply. Unknown model/event, charges and success rates are blank; numeric zero is recorded zero, and FREE identifies an explicit free pricing model.

How to read this data

Success rate is the share of public runs that finished successfully in the last 30 days. Summed reported actor users: 1,813. Users may overlap across tools; this is not a count of unique people or buyers, or search volume.

Carried forward means retained from an earlier fetch; pricing and usage may have changed, or the listing may be absent from today's fetch. Unknown observation dates remain unknown. Dataset file dates and tool build dates are not tool observation dates.

Most used: Google News Scraper (Pay Per Event) (600 users in 30 days).

Most reliable with 300+ runs: Google News Scraper (100.0% of 94,943 runs succeeded).

Current recommendations use only tools fetched in this dataset with a known observation date. Carried-forward and unknown-date records remain in comparisons but cannot be current picks.

Pricing coverage among 60 displayed tools: 59 with a recorded primary-event rate; 0 with an unavailable primary-event rate; 1 with an explicit FREE model. Primary-event rates use the recorded billing units below; different events are not equivalent results.

Success rate is shown only for tools with 20+ runs in 30 days; below 90% is highlighted. Prices use recorded list-tier event amounts (explicit FREE tier when tiered); other plan rates are not inferred. Rates are per 1,000 primary events in the recorded unit named beside each rate; an unavailable billing unit is labeled explicitly. Different billing events do not imply equivalent results. Run-start and additional charges, plus your workload, determine total cost. Unavailable means the snapshot did not provide the value; an explicit FREE model is separate from a zero listed event rate. You are responsible for complying with Google News's terms and applicable law. How we measure.

Other ways to get this data

Scraping APIs instead of a ready-made tool. Providers on our scraping-API benchmark panel, alphabetical: ScraperAPI (measurement paused) (affiliate link) · ScrapingAnt (affiliate link) · ScrapingBee · Scrapingdog (measurement paused) (affiliate link). See the API benchmark for dates, sample sizes and limits; those controlled fixtures are not a test of this website.

We earn commissions through links marked as affiliate links; this never changes measurement or order.
