## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## 💼 Clutch & B2B Agencies, Software Vendors & Decision Makers Scraper

Extract top-rated B2B marketing agencies, custom software development firms, hourly billing rates, minimum project thresholds, team headcounts, client reviews, and direct website contacts from **Clutch.co**.

***

### ⚡ What Does Clutch & B2B Agencies Scraper Do?

This Actor extracts premier B2B agency and technology vendor intelligence:

- **Financial & Deal Size Data**: Extract minimum project sizes (e.g. `$10,000+`, `$25,000+`) and hourly billing rates (`$100 - $149/hr`).
- **Agency Headcount & Capacity**: Identify firm size ranges (e.g. `50 - 249 employees`, `250 - 999 employees`).
- **Reputation & Review Metrics**: Average 5-star ratings, total verified client review counts, and Clutch Verified status.
- **Focus Areas & Contact Info**: Extract core service specializations (SEO, Web Development, PPC, AI/ML), website domains, and direct phone lines.
- **Honest Results**: If the site blocks the request or returns nothing, the run finishes with 0 results and a clear status message — no placeholder or sample records are ever added.

***

### 💼 Ideal Use Cases

- **SaaS Founders & Partner Managers**: Find high-performing agencies for agency partner/affiliate programs.
- **White-Label Providers**: Target established agencies with substantial project minimums for white-label outsourcing.
- **B2B SDRs**: Build verified prospect lists of decision-makers and agency owners.

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).
