## 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`).

## 🚀 EcomData BrandScout: Amazon & Flipkart Brand Finder

**Identify high-potential e-commerce brands effortlessly.**

Turn any product keyword into a targeted lead list. This Actor discovers brands on **Amazon and Flipkart**, filtering specifically for the "Growth Sweet Spot" of **50-120 reviews** to find rising private label sellers.

### 🌟 Why use EcomData BrandScout?

Finding the right brands to approach or compete with is manual and slow. Whether you are an agency looking for B2B leads or a seller looking for market gaps, this tool provides:

- **Lead Quality:** Filter by review count to find brands that are scaling but not yet giants.
- **Brand Extraction:** Get the official brand name and marketplace location instantly.
- **Keyword-Based Discovery:** Just type a product name to map out the entire competitive landscape.
- **Multi-Marketplace Support:** Search across Amazon Global and Flipkart in one tool.

### 🛠️ How to Get Started

1. **Enter Keyword:** Type your target product name (e.g., "Mushroom Lamp") into the `keyword` field.
2. **Set Review Filter:** Define your target range (e.g., 50 to 120) to find high-potential sellers.
3. **Run the Actor:** Click the **Run** button.
4. **Download Data:** Once finished, go to the **Dataset** tab to export your brand list as CSV or Excel.

### 📊 Output Example

| brand | location | reviewsCount | title | url |
|-------|----------|--------------|-------|-----|
| JeVenis | www.amazon.in | 84 | Mushroom Decoration Garden... | \[Link] |

### 💡 Business Use Cases

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keywords": [
    "Yoga Mats"
  ]
}' |
apify call complex_intricate_networks/brandscout-ecommerce-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,complex_intricate_networks/brandscout-ecommerce-scraper"
        }
    }
}

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).
