Actor Quality is here

We’re introducing Actor Quality, an automated scoring system that helps you discover reliable Actors faster and will encourage creators to build better Actors on Apify. This new system brings transparency to Apify Store through quality scores, badges, and will also give creators suggestions on how to improve their score.

What is Actor Quality?

Actor Quality evaluates every public Actor using multiple criteria, including reliability, documentation quality, user satisfaction, pricing strategy, and maintenance. The system helps users find the best Actors and provides creators with clear guidance on how to further develop what they’ve built.

How Actor Quality helps

With Actor Quality, users will be able to spot promising new Actors through the Rising Star badge, which highlights quality Actors with strong potential, and our search results will prioritize Actors with higher scores.

Creators, meanwhile, will get improvement suggestions based on their Actor’s strengths and weaknesses, while awards will boost their rankings. We also plan in the future to unlock Apify marketing support for quality Actors.

Learn more about Actor Quality in our documentation and join our Discord community to share your experience with other creators.
