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 ## Clutch.co Scraper — B2B Agency Leads (Rates, Reviews, Size) to CSV/Excel **Fast Clutch.co scraper for B2B agency intelligence.** Pull service-provider listings by category and location — name, rating, review count, hourly rate, minimum project size, employee count, location, and website — into clean, spreadsheet-ready rows. No login, no API key. `clutch scraper` · `clutch.co scraper` · `b2b agencies` · `agency directory` · `agency data export` · `lead generation` · `competitor research` · `service providers` Built for sales teams targeting agencies, consultancies benchmarking competitors, and analysts mapping the service-provider market. --- ### 👥 Who Is This For? * **B2B Sales:** Prospect agencies/consultancies by service + rate band. * **Agencies & Consultancies:** Benchmark competitors' ratings, rates, and size. * **Market Analysts:** Map the service-provider landscape by category and geography. --- ### ⚡ Features * **Firmographics** — rating, review count, hourly rate, minimum project size, employee count, location. * **Lead fields** — agency name, Clutch profile URL, website. * **Multi-category** — crawl several Clutch categories in one run, optional location filter. * **De-duplicated** — by Clutch profile URL. * **Cost control** — hard `maxItems` cap. * **Export** — CSV/Excel/JSON, or call via Apify's MCP server. --- ### 🚀 How to Use 1. Add Clutch **category slugs** (from the URL `clutch.co/agencies/{slug}`), e.g. `digital-marketing`, `seo`, `web-developers`. 2. Optionally add a **location** slug (e.g. `united-states`, `india`). 3. Set your **Maximum Items** cap and **Start**. 4. Export as CSV, Excel, JSON, or HTML. #### Sample Input ```json { "categories": ["digital-marketing", "seo"], "location": "united-states", "maxPagesPerCategory": 3, "maxItems": 500, "scrapeProfileDetails": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` *** ### 📊 Output Data Dictionary | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `name` | string | `"Acme Marketing"` | | `clutchUrl` | string | null | `"https://clutch.co/profile/acme-marketing"` | | `website` | string | null | `"https://acme.com"` | | `rating` | number | null | `4.8` | | `reviewCount` | integer | null | `173` | | `minProjectSize` | string | null | `"$10,000+"` | | `hourlyRate` | string | null | `"$100 - $149 / hr"` | | `employeeCount` | string | null | `"250 - 999"` | | `location` | string | null | `"San Diego, CA"` | | `tagline` | string | null | `"We grow brands."` | | `category` | string | `"digital-marketing"` | | `scrapedAt` | string (ISO) | `"2026-06-29T10:00:00.000Z"` | > Fields not shown on a listing come back `null`. #### Extra fields with **Full profile** mode (`scrapeProfileDetails: true`) | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `bio` | string | Full agency description | | `founded` | string | e.g. `"Founded 2013"` | | `telephone` | string | Phone from the profile | | `address` | object | street, locality, region, country, postalCode | | `serviceFocus` | array | `[{ service, percentage }]` — e.g. SEO 40% | | `serviceLines` | array | Detailed service breakdown | | `chartPie` | object | Tech, industry & client-size breakdowns | | `socialMediaLinks` | array | `[{ type, url }]` (LinkedIn, Facebook…) | | `reviews` | array | `[{ title, comments, rating, reviewer, datePublished }]` | | `reviewsOnPage` | integer | How many reviews captured (first page only) | *** ### 🔎 Two modes - **Directory (default):** name, rating, reviewCount, hourlyRate, minProjectSize, employeeCount, location, website, clutchUrl. One request per results page. - **Full profile (`scrapeProfileDetails: true`):** visits each agency profile for the rich object — `bio`, `serviceFocus` (%), `serviceLines`, `chartPie` (tech/industry/client breakdowns), `reviews[]`, `socialMediaLinks`, `address`, `founded`, `telephone`. **+1 request per agency** (slower, more bandwidth). > `reviewCount` is the agency's total (e.g. 173); `reviewsOnPage` is how many full review objects were captured from the profile page (Clutch embeds only the first page of reviews). ### 💡 Proxy (required — Clutch blocks data-center IPs) - **Default:** Apify residential — works out of the box. - **For best reliability:** add your own residential / web-unblocker proxy in the Proxy setting. Tip: use `maxItems` / `maxPagesPerCategory` to control cost. ### ⚖️ Compliance & Responsible Use Collects **publicly listed business** directory data only. You are responsible for lawful use, anti-spam compliance for outreach, and respecting Clutch.co's Terms of Service and `robots.txt`. # Actor input Schema ## `categories` (type: `array`): Clutch category slugs, e.g. 'digital-marketing', 'seo', 'web-developers', 'app-developers'. From the URL: clutch.co/agencies/{slug}. ## `location` (type: `string`): Optional location slug, e.g. 'united-states', 'india', 'new-york'. Appended as clutch.co/agencies/{category}/{location}. ## `maxPagesPerCategory` (type: `integer`): Directory pages per category. ## `scrapeProfileDetails` (type: `boolean`): If enabled, visits each agency's profile page for the full object (bio, service focus, locations, reviews, tech/industry charts, social links). Much richer, but +1 request per agency (slower, more residential bandwidth). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on total rows across all categories. 0 = unlimited. ## `debugLog` (type: `boolean`): Enable DEBUG-level logs (incl. page diagnostics) to troubleshoot blocked or empty categories. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Defaults to Apify US residential proxy — Clutch is Cloudflare-protected and blocks datacenter IPs. ## Actor input object example ```json { "categories": [ "digital-marketing" ], "maxPagesPerCategory": 1, "scrapeProfileDetails": false, "maxItems": 20, "debugLog": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "categories": [ "digital-marketing" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("matrix-crawl/clutch-scraper").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); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
