## 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.

## LinkedIn Jobs Intelligence — B2B Sales Signals

**Extract LinkedIn job listings and turn hiring data into actionable B2B sales intelligence. No login or LinkedIn account required.**

Find companies that are actively scaling their teams — the single strongest signal that a business is growing and ready to buy.

#### For B2B Sales Teams
- A company posting 10+ engineering jobs = **rapid product expansion** → perfect time to pitch your SaaS
- A company hiring a VP of Sales = **scaling their revenue team** → they need your tooling
- A competitor posting many roles = **intelligence on their growth trajectory**

#### For Recruiters & HR Analysts
- Monitor which companies are hiring for your target role
- Track salary ranges and seniority distributions across the market
- Get competitor hiring activity in real-time

#### For Market Researchers & Investors
- Track hiring velocity as a leading indicator of company growth
- Identify emerging hubs and remote-friendly companies
- Monitor industry-wide talent demand shifts

---
