## FAQ

### How much does this example cost?

Three successful analyses cost $0.0015. The Actor price is $0.50 per 1,000 analyzed sites ($0.0005 per site-analyzed event). Invalid, blocked and unreachable sites are free.

### What does it detect?

CMS, ecommerce platform, analytics, CDN, web server, frameworks and 3,600+ other technologies, with versions when they appear in the public HTML or DNS.

### Will it catch tools loaded only by JavaScript?

Not always. This Actor uses plain HTTP, not a browser, so technologies that appear only after JavaScript runs (for example some tag-manager-injected tools) can be missed.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Tech Stack Detector: Bulk Website Technology & CMS Lookup](https://apify.com/hillcountrybots/tech-stack-detector.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/hillcountrybots/tech-stack-detector.md

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`).
