## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Vendor Trust & Compliance Evidence Collector

Collect vendor trust evidence from public security, privacy, legal, status, and compliance pages.

This Actor helps procurement teams, security reviewers, compliance consultants, and B2B buyers screen vendor websites before a manual review. It looks for public evidence around security, compliance, legal terms, subprocessors, DPAs, privacy, uptime, and operational reliability.

### Use cases

- Pre-screen vendors before procurement or security review
- Build a vendor risk spreadsheet from public web pages
- Find SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, DPA, subprocessor, privacy, terms, security, and status-page evidence
- Collect links and text excerpts for manual compliance review
- Monitor whether a vendor has enough public trust documentation

### Input

Provide vendor website URLs.

```json
{
  "urls": ["https://www.apify.com"],
  "maxConcurrency": 3
}
```

The Actor checks the supplied URL and common trust paths such as `/security`, `/trust`, `/privacy`, `/terms`, `/subprocessors`, `/dpa`, and `/status`.

### Output

Each vendor produces one dataset item with:

- `trustScore` from 0 to 100
- `procurementStatus`: `strong_evidence`, `needs_review`, `weak_evidence`, or `failed`
- `coverage.security`, `coverage.compliance`, `coverage.legal`, and `coverage.operations`
- public evidence excerpts with category, keyword, URL, and text snippet
- discovered trust pages
- `signals` and `warnings`

### Pricing

You are charged per audited vendor result. Failed checks are saved without the paid event.

Primary charge event: `vendor-trust-result`

# 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 = {
    "urls": [
        "https://www.apify.com"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("frank_conifer_af4/vendor-trust-page-auditor").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) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "urls": ["https://www.apify.com"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("frank_conifer_af4/vendor-trust-page-auditor").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.apify.com"
  ]
}' |
apify call frank_conifer_af4/vendor-trust-page-auditor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,frank_conifer_af4/vendor-trust-page-auditor"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
