## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Shopify Tech Stack & Sales Opportunity Scraper

Extract verified Shopify eCommerce store leads enriched with deep technical audit metrics, missing marketing tracking pixels, absent newsletter capture modals, and page speed diagnostics.

Designed specifically for **eCommerce marketing agencies, Shopify developers, Klaviyo specialists, and conversion rate optimization (CRO) consultants** looking for high-intent client acquisition angles.

***

### Why Target Shopify Stores with Technical Flaws?

Pitching generic "web development" or "SEO services" gets ignored. But pitching an eCommerce founder with a **specific, identifiable leak in their funnel** creates immediate urgency:

1. **Missing TikTok Pixel / Events API**: The store is paying for ad traffic on Meta or Google but leaving money on the table by not retargeting TikTok visitors or leveraging TikTok Shop.
2. **Missing Email Capture Modals**: High-traffic storefronts failing to capture first-time visitors with a welcome offer lose 10%–15% of prospective subscribers forever.
3. **Sluggish Mobile Speed Scores**: Heavy Shopify theme apps and uncompressed hero banners drag Core Web Vitals below 65, directly damaging mobile checkout rates.
4. **Missing Meta Conversions API (CAPI)**: Storefronts relying strictly on browser-side pixels lose up to 30% of purchase event signals due to ad blockers and iOS tracking restrictions.

This Actor identifies these exact gaps and pairs every prospect with **verified contact emails, telephone numbers, country, category, and an actionable cold outreach pitch**.

***

### Key Features

- **Automated Tech Stack Inspection**: Identifies Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Klaviyo marketing scripts, detected Shopify theme, and estimated mobile page speed.
- **Actionable Opportunity Filter**: Target stores specifically by identified marketing flaws (`MISSING_TIKTOK_PIXEL`, `MISSING_EMAIL_POPUP`, `SLOW_PAGE_SPEED`, `MISSING_META_PIXEL`, or `ANY_FLAW`).
- **Comprehensive Niche Coverage**: Filter by popular eCommerce verticals: Apparel & Fashion, Beauty & Cosmetics, Health & Wellness, Home & Living, Jewelry & Accessories, Electronics, Food & Beverage, Pet Supplies.
- **Geographic Precision**: Filter brands across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany, and France.
- **Verified Direct Contacts**: Enriched with direct customer support or founder email addresses and telephone lines.
- **Tailored Agency Outreach Pitch**: Generates an immediate, copy-paste cold email hook tailored to the store's exact technical shortcoming.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("automation_studio/shopify-opportunity-scanner").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call automation_studio/shopify-opportunity-scanner --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,automation_studio/shopify-opportunity-scanner"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
