## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Public Demo Video Signal Agent

Extract structured evidence from public product demo, product-tour, and
explainer video pages.

This Actor is built for AI agents, sales researchers, product marketers, and
competitive-intelligence workflows that need to answer a narrow question:

> Does this public page contain credible product demo video evidence?

It does not render JavaScript, play videos, download media, submit forms, or
crawl the site.

### What It Finds

- YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, Loom, Vidyard, Brightcove, Mux, HTML5 video, and
  related embed signals.
- Video evidence from iframes, `VideoObject` JSON-LD, meta video tags, HTML5
  media sources, script references, and visible links.
- Demo/product-tour context such as "watch demo", "product tour", "see it in
  action", "walkthrough", and "overview video".
- Watch-demo CTAs.
- Focus-term matches.
- A stable `demoVideoHash` for unchanged comparisons.

### What It Does Not Do

- It is not a lead-form or funnel analyzer. Use a lead-capture workflow for
  form fields and demo booking friction.
- It is not a render-readiness checker. A page is not billable here merely
  because it has an iframe or JavaScript shell.
- It is not a brand-asset finder. Logo, media-kit, and social preview images
  are not treated as demo video evidence.
- It is not a webinar/event scraper. Webinar-only, event replay, speaker,
  agenda, and registration pages are written as non-billable partial records.

### Input Example

```json
{
  "demoPageUrls": ["https://www.wistia.com/product"],
  "focusTerms": ["video"],
  "requestTimeoutSecs": 20
}
````

### Output Highlights

Each dataset record includes:

- `status`
- `inputUrl`, `finalUrl`, and `siteOriginUrl`
- `pageTitle` and `metaDescription`
- `demoPageType`
- `videoEmbeds`, `videoCount`, and `videoProviders`
- `demoCtas` and `demoCtaCount`
- `matchedDemoTerms`, `matchedRequestDemoTerms`, and `matchedFocusVideoTerms`
- `webinarOnlySignals`
- `evidenceSnippets` and `evidenceUrls`
- `videoSignalScore`, `confidenceScore`, and `completenessScore`
- `demoVideoHash`, `previousDemoVideoHash`, and `changeStatus`
- `billableEventName`

### Useful-Result Pricing

This Actor is intended for pay-per-event pricing:

- `apify-actor-start`: charged once per run.
- `useful-demo-video-signal-result`: charged only for useful, new or changed
  demo video signal records.

Unchanged records, unsafe URLs, failed fetches, pages without video evidence,
demo-request pages without video, focus misses, webinar-only pages, and generic
video pages without demo context are not charged for the useful event.

Do not configure `apify-default-dataset-item`.

### URL Safety

The Actor accepts only public HTTP/HTTPS pages. It rejects private-network and
local addresses, `.local` domains, credentials, query parameters, fragments,
path parameters, sensitive account/token paths, cross-site redirects,
non-HTML responses, and pages larger than 3 MB.

### Change Detection

Pass prior records through `previousDemoVideoRecords`. If the same page returns
the same `demoVideoHash`, the Actor writes an unchanged record without charging
`useful-demo-video-signal-result`.

# Actor input Schema

## `demoPageUrls` (type: `array`):

Public HTTP/HTTPS pages that contain product demo, product-tour, or explainer video evidence. Query parameters, fragments, credentials, path params, private-network hosts, and token-like account paths are rejected.

## `focusTerms` (type: `array`):

Optional product, use case, segment, or feature terms that must appear before the useful result event is charged.

## `previousDemoVideoRecords` (type: `array`):

Optional previous records from this Actor. If demoVideoHash is unchanged for the same page, the result is written without charging the useful event.

## `maxVideos` (type: `integer`):

Maximum video records to return per page.

## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`):

Maximum time in seconds to wait for each public page response.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "demoPageUrls": [
    "https://www.wistia.com/product"
  ],
  "focusTerms": [],
  "previousDemoVideoRecords": [],
  "maxVideos": 20,
  "requestTimeoutSecs": 20
}
```

# 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 = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("jacksu/public-demo-video-signal-agent").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);
});
