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/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 ## Vault Company Profiles Scraper Scrape company salary, rankings, benefits, departments, offices, and culture data from [Vault.com](https://vault.com) company profiles — no login, no cookies, no API key required. Vault covers thousands of employers across law, consulting, banking, accounting, technology, and other professional-services industries. ### What this actor does - **Company profiles** — first-year/base salary figures, salary-vs-industry positioning, employee count, company type, featured rankings (e.g. "Vault Law 100", "Best Consulting Firms for Compensation"), major departments/practice areas, office locations, career site & newsroom links, top executives, notable cases/awards, "About the Company", and "Why Work Here" editorial content. - **Benefits & perks** — every benefit Vault lists for a company, grouped by category (Family & Wellness, Health, Financial, Vacation & Time Off, and more). - **Company directory** — browse or fully paginate Vault's ~1,288-company directory (name, logo, profile URL), filterable by industry, US state/location, and company size, and sortable by name or size. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `mode` | string | `profile` | `profile` / `benefits` / `companies` | | `companyPaths` | array | `["management-strategy/bain-company"]` | Vault `industry/slug` paths or full profile URLs (mode=profile/benefits) | | `maxItems` | integer | `50` | Hard cap on total emitted records. For `mode=companies`, set this near ~1300 to pull Vault's full live directory | | `industry` | string (select) | none | mode=companies only — filter to one Vault industry category (e.g. `Consulting`, `Law`) | | `location` | array (select) | none | mode=companies only — filter to one or more US states (or `International`) | | `companySize` | array (select) | none | mode=companies only — filter to one or more employee-count buckets | | `sortBy` | string (select) | `az` | mode=companies only — `az` / `za` / `ls` (largest company size first) / `sl` (smallest first) | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify proxy | Leave on default — auto-escalates on a block | #### Finding a company path A Vault company profile URL looks like `https://vault.com/company-profiles/law/kirkland-ellis` — the path is everything after `/company-profiles/` (`law/kirkland-ellis`). If you don't know a company's industry segment, run `mode=companies` first to browse the directory and copy the `companyPath` field from any result. #### Example: full company profile ```json { "mode": "profile", "companyPaths": ["law/kirkland-ellis", "management-strategy/accenture"] } ```` #### Example: benefits & perks ```json { "mode": "benefits", "companyPaths": ["management-strategy/bain-company"] } ``` #### Example: browse the directory ```json { "mode": "companies", "maxItems": 18 } ``` #### Example: pull the full directory, filtered and sorted ```json { "mode": "companies", "maxItems": 1300, "industry": "Consulting", "location": ["CA", "NY"], "sortBy": "az" } ``` ### Output Output shape depends on `mode`. All records include `recordType` and `scrapedAt`. Empty/unavailable fields are always omitted — Vault doesn't publish every field for every company (e.g. law firms show `partnerCount`/`firstYearSalary`; consulting firms show `companyType`/`affiliatedCompanies` instead). **profile** (`companyProfile`): - `companyName`, `companyPath`, `companyUrl`, `industry`, `logoUrl` - `firstYearSalary`, `salaryRangeVsIndustry` (positioning vs. industry peers) - `employeeCount`, `companyType`, `partnerCount`, `topExecutive`, `otherExecutives`, `affiliatedCompanies` - `rankings[]`, `majorDepartments[]`, `majorLocations[]` - `careerSiteUrl`, `newsSiteUrl`, `notableCases`, `notableAwards` - `aboutCompany`, `whyWorkHere` - `otherStats` — any additional industry-specific stats Vault publishes for that company **benefits** (`benefit`): - `companyName`, `companyPath`, `benefitCategory`, `benefit` **companies** (`companyListing`): - `companyName`, `companyPath`, `companyUrl`, `logoUrl` - `industry` — only present when the `industry` input filter was applied (Vault's directory API never exposes a per-company sector/industry value on unfiltered results, so this reflects the filter you applied rather than a per-record field) ### Use cases - **Compensation benchmarking** — compare first-year/base salary figures and industry salary positioning across law firms, consulting firms, and banks. - **Employer branding research** — pull rankings and benefits data for competitor analysis in professional services. - **Recruiting & talent intelligence** — surface department structure, office locations, and "Why Work Here" messaging for target employers. - **Career research** — check a firm's benefits package and Vault ranking before applying. - **Market mapping** — build a competitor set by industry using the company directory. ### FAQs **Do I need to provide cookies or an API key?** No — all data comes from public, unauthenticated Vault.com pages. **What if a company path doesn't exist on Vault?** The actor logs a warning and skips it; it never crashes the run. Run `mode=companies` to confirm the exact `industry/slug` path first. **Why do some companies have `partnerCount`/`firstYearAssociateCount` and others don't?** Vault tailors its stats to each industry — law firms report partner and associate headcounts; consulting and corporate profiles report company type and affiliated regional entities instead. Fields with no underlying data are omitted rather than sent as blank/null. **Does `mode=companies` support search or pagination?** Yes — it paginates through Vault's full live directory (~1,288 companies as of testing) and supports `industry`, `location`, and `companySize` filters plus `sortBy`. Set `maxItems` near the total to pull everything; a plain "public/private" company-type filter exists in Vault's own filter metadata but has no working request parameter, so it is intentionally not exposed here. **How current is the data?** Vault profile pages reflect the live company profile at scrape time; Vault itself updates rankings annually and salary/benefits data as firms report changes. **Can I run multiple companies in one call?** Yes — pass multiple paths in `companyPaths`; the actor processes them sequentially and applies `maxItems` across the combined output. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to scrape. ## `companyPaths` (type: `array`): Vault `industry/company-slug` paths (e.g. `management-strategy/bain-company`, `law/kirkland-ellis`) or full profile URLs (e.g. `https://vault.com/company-profiles/law/kirkland-ellis`). Not sure of the industry segment? Run `mode=companies` first to find valid paths. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on the total number of records emitted. For mode=companies, Vault's live directory holds ~1,288 companies (~13 pages of 100) — set this near that ceiling to pull the full directory. ## `industry` (type: `string`): Only return companies in this Vault industry category. Leave blank for all industries. ## `location` (type: `array`): Only return companies headquartered/located in these states (or International). Leave empty for all locations. ## `companySize` (type: `array`): Only return companies in these employee-count buckets. Leave empty for all sizes. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Sort order for the company directory. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): vault.com has shown no bot-management challenges in testing. The actor connects directly and automatically escalates to Apify's free datacenter proxy on a block, purely as a safety net. Leave this on the default. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "profile", "companyPaths": [ "management-strategy/bain-company" ], "maxItems": 50, "industry": "", "location": [], "companySize": [], "sortBy": "az", "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `records` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped Vault.com records. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
