## 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.

# README

## Kompass B2B Contact Scraper

Extract company contact data from [nl.kompass.com](https://nl.kompass.com) — the largest B2B business directory in the Netherlands and Belgium. Search by keyword, sector, or company name and collect structured contact information at scale.

### What it does

This Actor crawls Kompass search results and extracts the following data for each company:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `companyName` | Official company name |
| `url` | Kompass profile URL |
| `city` | City |
| `country` | Country (e.g. Nederland, België) |
| `phone` | Phone number |
| `website` | Company website URL |
| `description` | Short company description |
| `sectors` | Products/services the company supplies |

### Input

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `searchQuery` | string | *(empty)* | Keyword, sector, or company name to search for |
| `country` | string | `NL` | ISO country code to filter results (`NL`, `BE`, `DE`, etc.) |
| `maxPages` | integer | `5` | Maximum number of search result pages to scrape |
| `proxyCountryCode` | string | `NL` | Preferred proxy country (requires paid Apify plan) |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "searchQuery": "software",
  "country": "NL",
  "maxPages": 3
}
````

### Output

Results are stored in the **Dataset** tab after each run. Each item represents one company:

```json
{
  "companyName": "Ampco Metal S.A.",
  "url": "https://nl.kompass.com/c/ampco-metal-s-a/nl142595/",
  "city": "Woerden",
  "country": "Nederland",
  "phone": "+31 348 416 706",
  "website": "http://www.ampcometal.com",
  "description": "Al meer dan een eeuw helpen wij de technische problemen van onze klanten op te lossen...",
  "sectors": "Aluminiumbrons, Aluminiumnikkelbrons, Berylliumkopervervanger"
}
```

You can export results as **JSON**, **CSV**, or **Excel** directly from the Apify Console.

### Use cases

- **Sales prospecting** — Build targeted B2B lead lists by sector or region
- **Market research** — Map out competitors and suppliers in a specific industry
- **CRM enrichment** — Add missing contact data to existing company lists
- **Partner sourcing** — Find suppliers or distributors in the Netherlands or Belgium

### Setup & running locally

#### Requirements

- Python 3.10+
- [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli)

#### Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/LuukZout/luzodi.git
cd luzodi
python -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\activate        ## Windows
pip install -r requirements.txt
playwright install chromium
```

#### Run locally

Edit `storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json` to set your search parameters, then:

```bash
apify run
```

> **Note:** Running locally without a proxy will likely result in 403 blocks from Kompass. Deploy to Apify for reliable results using their proxy network.

#### Deploy to Apify

```bash
apify login
apify push
```

Then start a run from the [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com).

### Notes

- Kompass uses bot detection (Cloudflare). A **residential proxy** is recommended for reliable scraping — available on the Apify Personal plan or via an external proxy provider.
- Email addresses are not included in the output. Kompass loads these via a separate authenticated request after a user interaction.
- Results per page vary between 10–25 companies depending on the search query.
