What This Actor Does

Cameo is the marketplace where celebrities record personalized video messages. This Actor turns a list of talent into structured data — the numbers you can't get anywhere else:

• Price — the current price per personalized video (in USD by default)
• Reputation — star rating and total review count
• Identity — name, profession / known-for, bio, category
• Status — availability (in stock / out of stock), profile image and URL

Paste talent handles or profile URLs and get one clean row per celebrity — perfect for a celebrity price index.

Why Use This

• The price index nobody else has. Cameo's price-per-video is the core signal for talent-booking and influencer-pricing decisions — this Actor structures it at scale.
• Compare and rank. Price + rating + review count let you rank talent by value, popularity and cost.
• Any talent. Track competitors, a roster, or a category of celebrities over time.
• Clean and fast. Reads Cameo's own profile data (structured JSON) — no manual lookups.

Quick Start

Run it in the console (no code)

1. Paste Cameo handles or profile URLs (e.g. brianbaumgartner, https://www.cameo.com/melissajoanhart).
2. Click Start (the US proxy is preconfigured so prices come back in USD).
3. Export as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or push to Google Sheets, a webhook or a database.

Run it via API (Python)

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run_input = {"handles": ["brianbaumgartner", "melissajoanhart", "loudobbs"]}

run = client.actor("YOUR_USERNAME/cameo-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

for t in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(t["name"], "·", t["price"], t["currency"], "·", t["rating"], "★", t["reviewCount"])

Build a price index (Python)

run = client.actor("YOUR_USERNAME/cameo-scraper").call(run_input={"handles": [ ...your talent list... ]})
rows = list(client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items())
rows.sort(key=lambda t: -(t.get("price") or 0))
for t in rows[:10]:
    print(f'{t["name"]:<24} ${t["price"]:<6} {t["rating"]}star ({t["reviewCount"]})')

Tips

• USD by default: Cameo shows prices in the visitor's local currency, so the US proxy is preconfigured to return USD. The currency field always tells you which currency a row is in.
• Handles: the handle is the last path segment of a profile URL — cameo.com/brianbaumgartner -> brianbaumgartner.
• Availability flags whether the talent is currently taking bookings.
• Schedule it with Apify Schedules to track price and rating changes over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Cameo account? No. The Actor reads publicly visible profile data — no login required.

Why is a proxy preconfigured? Cameo localizes prices by IP; a US proxy ensures prices come back in USD. You can change the country in the proxy settings.

Can I discover talent, or only look them up? This Actor scrapes talent you provide (handles/URLs). Build your list from Cameo categories or your own roster.

What export formats are supported? JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or via API — plus Google Sheets, webhooks, Make and Zapier.
