They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## 🚀 Apify Store Actor Analytics & Competitor Tracker **Apify Store Actor Analytics & Competitor Tracker** is a fast, lightweight data extraction tool designed for Apify creators, developers, and product managers. It extracts real-time performance metrics for any Apify Store developer portfolio without running heavy headless browsers or relying on slow DOM renders. Whether you are conducting competitor research, monitoring market demand for specific web scrapers, or keeping a historical log of your own Actor growth, this tool provides instant access to crucial backend metrics. --- ### 💡 Why Track Apify Store Actors? Building successful web scrapers on Apify requires understanding market demand and developer performance. This Actor helps you answer critical business questions: * **Which Actors are gaining traction?** Monitor **Monthly Active Users (MAU)** to identify growing market demand. * **How are competitors pricing their tools?** Analyze pay-per-result rates, flat monthly subscription prices, and free tier options across the store. * **Are users sticking around?** Compare total historical users against 30-day active users to assess user retention and Actor utility. * **How popular is a tool?** Track total **bookmarks** and **star ratings** to measure user satisfaction and community interest. * **Is the project actively maintained?** Check the **last modified date** to see if a competitor is continuously updating their tool. --- ### ✨ Key Features & Extracted Data Points This Actor retrieves clean, structured backend data for every public Actor associated with any given Apify handle/username: | Data Field | Type | Description & Business Value | |---|---|---| | `actorName` | String | Technical slug identifier for the Actor | | `title` | String | Human-readable title displayed in the Apify Store | | `actorUrl` | String | Direct web URL to the published Actor page | | `price` | String | Formatted pricing structure (e.g., `$20 / 1,000 results`, `Free`) | | `rating` | String | Average star rating out of 5.0 alongside total review count | | `bookmarked` | Integer | Total number of Apify users who have saved/bookmarked the Actor | | `totalUsers` | Integer | All-time total users who have added or run the Actor | | `monthlyActiveUsers` | Integer | Active user count over the last 30 days (MAU) | | `lastModified` | String | ISO formatted date (`YYYY-MM-DD`) of the last published build | | `scrapedAt` | Timestamp | ISO timestamp indicating when the data was extracted | --- ### ⚡ How It Works (No Headless Browser Required) Unlike traditional web scrapers that load heavy Chrome/Playwright instances and parse fragile HTML elements, this Actor queries Apify's internal Store API endpoints directly. #### Key Advantages: 1. **Ultra-Fast Performance:** Scrapes an entire profile with 50+ Actors in **under 2 seconds**. 2. **Zero Browser Overhead:** Uses minimal RAM and compute power, keeping your run costs at fractions of a cent. 3. **100% Reliable:** Immune to frontend layout changes or CSS selector breaks. --- ### 📥 Input Parameters Configuring the Actor is simple. You only need to pass the target developer's Apify handle. #### Input JSON Example ```json { "username": "https://apify.com/complex_intricate_networks" } [ { "actorName": "ecomdata-pro-amazon-flipkart-meesho-scraper", "title": "EcomData Pro: Amazon, Flipkart & Meesho Scraper", "actorUrl": "[https://apify.com/complex_intricate_networks/ecomdata-pro-amazon-flipkart-meesho-scraper](https://apify.com/complex_intricate_networks/ecomdata-pro-amazon-flipkart-meesho-scraper)", "price": "$20 / 1,000 results", "rating": "5.0 (2 reviews)", "bookmarked": 14, "totalUsers": 152, "monthlyActiveUsers": 41, "lastModified": "2026-07-20", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-22T16:38:00.000Z" }, { "actorName": "founder-contact-enricher-hiring-signals", "title": "Startup Hiring Signals & Founder Contact Finder", "actorUrl": "[https://apify.com/complex_intricate_networks/founder-contact-enricher-hiring-signals](https://apify.com/complex_intricate_networks/founder-contact-enricher-hiring-signals)", "price": "Free", "rating": "4.8 (12 reviews)", "bookmarked": 45, "totalUsers": 1250, "monthlyActiveUsers": 310, "lastModified": "2026-07-18", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-22T16:38:00.000Z" } ] # Actor input Schema ## `username` (type: `string`): The handle of the Apify creator you want to track. ## Actor input object example ```json { "username": "complex_intricate_networks" } ```` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
