🎯 What This Scraper Does

This Apify Actor extracts public crowdfunding projects from Kickstarter Discover and search results.

Each provided keyword is processed independently.

The scraper searches Kickstarter using the specified keyword and selected sorting method, extracts available crowdfunding projects, and continues through available results until maxItemsPerKeyword is reached.

You can provide one or multiple keywords in a single run.

For example:

ai
data
robotics
smart home
wearables

This makes it easy to build targeted crowdfunding datasets across different technologies, industries, product categories, and market trends.

---

📌 Supported Input

The scraper accepts one or multiple search keywords.

Examples:

🔎 AI

💻 Data

🤖 Robotics

🏠 Smart Home

⌚ Wearables

🚗 Electric Vehicles
