## 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`).

![Actor Banner](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/PyvJzfQg02FD3RYhd/records/g2-reviews-scraper-banner.png)

Scrape **G2 software reviews** by product slug or URL. Extracts star rating, headline, full review body, reviewer job title, company, company size, industry, and helpful votes.

### Why use this?

- **Competitor intelligence** — monitor what buyers say about rival products
- **Social proof audits** — gather evidence for case studies and battlecards
- **B2B buyer identification** — reviewers are real decision-makers; cross-reference with email and LinkedIn scrapers
- **Market research** — segment reviews by company size, industry, or sentiment

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `demoMode` | boolean | `false` | Return 3 Slack demo reviews (no G2 request needed) |
| `productSlugs` | string\[] | — | G2 slugs, e.g. `["salesforce-crm", "hubspot-crm"]` |
| `productUrls` | URL\[] | — | Direct G2 review page URLs |
| `maxReviews` | integer | `50` | Max reviews per run (1–1000) |
| `sortBy` | select | `most_recent` | `most_recent` or `most_helpful` |

**Finding a slug:** look at the G2 URL — `g2.com/products/{slug}/reviews`.

#### Minimal input

```json
{ "productSlugs": ["slack"], "maxReviews": 25 }
```

#### Demo run (free smoke test)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call intelscrape/g2-reviews-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,intelscrape/g2-reviews-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
