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.

Where do I report a problem? Open an issue on this Actor's page; replies are written by the Ambolt service team, usually within a day.
