I built FuelPrices to answer one question fast: what does fuel cost near this location right now? It is a fuel prices API on Apify that returns live gas station prices for any US ZIP code, city, or GPS point, with some Canadian coverage.

Each result is one row of gas station data: station name, street address, distance from your search point, user rating, and current cash and credit prices, plus when each price was posted. It covers six fuel grades: Regular, Midgrade, Premium, Diesel, E85, and Unleaded 88. A freshness filter drops stations whose prices are older than N days, and every run can also write a CSV for spreadsheets or BI tools.

Pricing is pay per result: $1.00 per 1,000 stations returned. No subscription, no monthly minimum, no cookies, no login. 145+ users run it at a 99.8% success rate.

How to use it

1. Open the Actor on Apify and enter a location: "11507", "Austin", or "36.08, -115.05".

2. Pick a fuel type (Regular is the default) and, if you want, a maximum price age in days.

3. Run it. Results land in a dataset you can read as JSON or CSV, or pull straight from the REST API.

Example tasks and use cases

Each link is a runnable, pre-configured example:

• Find gas station prices by ZIP code - check every station near a ZIP and spot the cheapest gas.

• Find live gas prices in any US city by fuel type - city-wide prices filtered to the grade you care about.

• Find gas prices near GPS map coordinates - feed it lat/long from a map or a vehicle.

• Fetch gas prices in New York by API - NYC station prices as a REST call.

• Fetch gas prices in Los Angeles by API - LA fuel costs for apps and dashboards.

• Fetch gas prices in Chicago by API - Chicago pump prices in clean JSON.

• Fetch gas prices in Houston by API - track Texas fuel markets.

• Fetch diesel prices in San Diego by MCP - west coast diesel prices for logistics.

• Fetch gas prices in Jacksonville by API - Florida fuel data by API.

There are 25 runnable examples on the Actor's Examples page, covering major US cities by API and by MCP.

Common uses: fuel price monitoring across cities and ZIP codes, competitive benchmarking for fuel retailers, cost dashboards for fleets and delivery routes, and price-comparison features inside consumer apps.

Works with MCP

The Actor is exposed over MCP (Model Context Protocol), so you can plug it into MCP-compatible AI clients such as Claude and use it as a tool. Ask "what do diesel prices look like around Dallas right now" and the assistant calls the Actor and returns structured station rows: no scraping code, no manual export.

FAQ About Scraping Gas Prices

• What does it return? One row per station: name, address, distance, rating, cash and credit prices, and when each price was posted.

• What does it cost? $1 per 1,000 results, pay per event. No subscription.

• Can AI tools use it? Yes. It runs over MCP, so Claude and other MCP clients can call it directly.
