Why this actor

This data is sold as expensive static lists elsewhere (film-production company databases run from hundreds to thousands of dollars, often stale). There is no on-demand, country × category-filtered production-services directory feed on the market — this actor is that: fresh, filterable, de-duplicated, and pay-per-result so you only pay for the companies you actually pull.

	This actor	Static list vendors
Filter by country and service category	✅ Yes	⚠️ Pre-cut lists only
Freshness	✅ On-demand, live	❌ Often months/years old
Company-level only (PDPA/GDPR-friendly)	✅ By design	⚠️ Often bundled with personal contacts
Output	JSON + CSV, CRM/LLM-ready	CSV dump
Pricing	Pay-per-result	Flat hundreds–thousands

What you get per company

Company-level fields only:

• Company: name, service section (e.g. Production Companies & Services, Production Equipment Rental), specific category (e.g. Commercials Production Companies, Film, Commercials & TV Studios & Stages)
• Location: country, city, county, full address, postcode
• Contact (company-level): website, generic business email (e.g. info@… — personal/named emails are filtered out), phone, fax
• Socials: LinkedIn (company), Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram
• Profile: year established, listing package type, source profile URL, scrape timestamp

No personal data. This actor returns only company/organization-level information. It does not scrape the directory's separate crew (individual people) section, never emits individual names, and drops any email whose local-part looks like a person's name or initials — only explicit role mailboxes (info@, sales@, bookings@, …) are kept.

How it works (and how it stays compliant)

• Reads public, non-login company profile pages and enumerates them from the site's public sitemap — results served on demand for your run.
• Honours robots.txt at runtime (the source disallows /auth/login, /account/profile, /search, /newsletter, /thank-you — the actor never touches those).
• Polite, rate-limited requests with an identifying User-Agent.
• Company-level fields only; the crew/person section is excluded and personal-looking emails are dropped — to keep your use PDPA/GDPR-friendly.
• You are responsible for using the extracted data in compliance with the source's terms and applicable law in your jurisdiction. This actor accesses publicly available, non-personal business information.

Pricing

Pay-per-result — you only pay for the companies you actually get. Run a small maxResults first to preview before scaling up.
