## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

2. **Extracts listing details** — name, address, phone, rating, reviews, price range, cuisine type
3. **Detects chain restaurants** — flags Starbucks, McDonald's, etc. so you can filter independents
4. **Crawls restaurant websites** to find owner names, emails, and phone numbers

| `location` | string | — | Optional city/state filter |
| `maxResults` | integer | `5` | Max restaurants to return (1-500) |
| `cuisineType` | string | — | Filter by cuisine (e.g., `Italian`, `Mexican`) |
| `minRating` | number | `0` | Minimum star rating filter (0-5) |
| `extractOwnerDetails` | boolean | `false` | Crawl websites for owner contacts |

### Example Use Cases
