## What's an Apify Actor?

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.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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.

---

Acquisitions and mergers. Each record has the acquirer, target, deal value, payment type, and date. Records are deduped and matched to a single company, not a raw scrape. Set your filters, run, and you pay only for the records returned.

### Inputs

| Input | Description |
|---|---|
| `maxItems` | Max records (default 100) |
| `cursor` | Advanced: resume from a previous run's `NEXT_CURSOR` to paginate ahead |
| `since` | Only records after this timestamp, e.g. 2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z |
| `minAmountUsd` | Minimum amount in USD. |
| `maxAmountUsd` | Maximum amount in USD. |
| `paymentType` | Filter by acquisition payment type. |
| `isMerger` | Show only mergers. |

#### Example output

```json
{
  "acquirer": {
    "name": "Acme Corp",
    "domain": "acme.com"
  },
  "target": {
    "name": "Beta Inc",
    "domain": "beta.io"
  },
  "dealAmountUsd": 120000000,
  "paymentType": "cash",
  "isMerger": false,
  "announcedAt": "2026-03-10"
}
````

### FAQ

**Is this a Crunchbase or PitchBook alternative?**

Yes. It is a self-serve, API-first option next to Crunchbase, PitchBook, Coresignal, and Harmonic, with no sales call.

**How do I get the next batch?**

Each run saves a `NEXT_CURSOR` to its key-value store. Pass it as the `cursor` input on the next run to continue where you left off. For new records over time, use the `since` filter.

**How fresh is the data?**

New records are available within hours of being reported.

**Can I get this data over API?**

Yes. Datahyena is API-first: REST, webhooks, or MCP (Claude, Cursor, Codex). This actor is the Apify-native way to run it.

### Use it in your own stack

For ongoing use it is cheaper and more flexible to go direct: REST, webhooks, and MCP, with subscription pricing and 50 free credits to start.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("datahyena/company-acquisitions-ma").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
