GitHub Repository Stats Scraper

Extract clean GitHub repository intelligence for market maps, developer tooling research, open-source monitoring, lead qualification, investment research, and AI-agent workflows. This public actor accepts repository URLs, owner/repo slugs, GitHub users or organizations, and GitHub search queries, then returns structured repository rows that are ready for spreadsheets, CRMs, dashboards, and enrichment pipelines.

What You Can Extract

• Repository name, URL, description, topics, language, license, owner, and source mode
• Stars, forks, watchers, open issues, archived/private/fork flags, and visibility context
• Owner profile basics and repository metadata useful for developer-tool lead scoring
• Latest release metadata when available
• One row per repository so mixed inputs can be traced back to their source query

Common Use Cases

• Track open-source competitors, SDKs, AI tools, crypto projects, infrastructure projects, and developer platforms
• Build market maps from GitHub search queries, repository topics, and language filters
• Enrich developer-tool lead lists with stars, forks, language, license, issues, topics, and release activity
• Monitor repository traction before outreach, partnership, acquisition, or investment research
• Feed GitHub repository rows into dashboards, CRM systems, product-research workflows, and AI agents

Pricing

Recommended monetization: pay per dataset item. Launch around $0.002 per repository row for bulk repository research, then raise only after repeat usage appears.

Responsible Use

This actor extracts public GitHub repository metadata. Use it for research, enrichment, monitoring, and discovery. Respect GitHub terms and rate limits, and avoid spam outreach, repository manipulation, or misleading claims based only on star counts.
