FAQ
Is a result guaranteed to be complete? Each result carries the date it was read. If the upstream service is down the run fails with a clear message and you are not charged.
Can I call it from code or an AI agent? Yes: run it through the Apify API, or use the MCP tool and pay-per-call endpoint listed at https://ambolt.dev.
Is this affiliated with the data source? No. Source names are used descriptively; each result keeps its source attribution and licence line.
