# Adobe Stock keyword research: demand and competition

**Use case:** 

Type the keywords you are thinking of shooting or generating and get one report per keyword: how many assets compete, downloads of the top 100, the best sellers, the keywords they use and how much of the top is recent or AI-made. Sort by median downloads to find niches where few assets sell a lot.

## Input

```json
{
  "searches": [
    "christmas background",
    "halloween",
    "business meeting",
    "coffee"
  ],
  "mode": "keywordReport",
  "sort": "downloads",
  "contentType": "all",
  "aiContent": "all",
  "maxItemsPerSearch": 20,
  "onlyNewItems": false
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "keyword": {
    "label": "Keyword",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "totalResults": {
    "label": "Total results",
    "format": "integer"
  },

## FAQ

### What does a high recent share mean?

In the keyword research task, recentShareTop100 is the share of the top 100 by downloads uploaded in the last year. A high value means new work still reaches the top of that niche.

### Where do the download numbers come from?

The keyword research task uses the download count Adobe Stock shows for each asset. It ranks assets by how often buyers licensed them.

### How much does this task cost to run?

The keyword research task is billed per result: 0.40 USD per 1,000 assets on the free plan, less on paid plans, and 0.005 USD per keyword report.

### Can I run it on a schedule or through the API?

Yes. Save the keyword research task to your account, add a schedule in Apify Console, or start it from the Apify API, Make, Zapier or n8n with the same input.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/babymum7/adobe-stock-scraper.md

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`).
