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 ## 🤖 AI Web Scraper — LLM Data Extraction > Extract structured data from any web page using AI. Describe what you want — the LLM understands the page and returns clean JSON. No selectors, no code, no maintenance. The future of scraping. Pay per page. ### 🔑 Features - Runs in the Apify cloud — no local setup, no maintenance - Structured JSON output ready for analytics, CRMs, or databases - Batch-friendly — process many inputs in one run - Integrates with Zapier, Make.com, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack, and direct API calls - Pay-per-use pricing — no subscription, no monthly minimum ### 💼 Common Use Cases - Market research and competitive intelligence - Data enrichment and lead generation - Content monitoring and automated alerts - Pipeline and integration workflows - Dashboards and reporting --- ### 💻 Code Example — Python ```python from apify_client import ApifyClient client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN") run = client.actor("nexgendata/ai-web-scraper").call(run_input={ ## Fill in the input shape from the actor's input_schema }) for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items(): print(item) ```` ### 🌐 Code Example — cURL ```bash curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/nexgendata~ai-web-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ /* input schema */ }' ``` ### ❓ FAQ **Q: How do I get started?** Sign up at [apify.com](https://www.apify.com/?fpr=2ayu9b), grab your API token from Settings → Integrations, and run the actor via the Apify console, API, Python SDK, or any integration (Zapier, Make.com, n8n). **Q: What's the typical cost per run?** See the pricing section below. Most runs finish under $0.10 for typical batches. **Q: Is this actor maintained?** Yes. NexGenData maintains 140+ Apify actors and ships updates regularly. Bug reports via the Apify console issues tab get responses within 24 hours. **Q: Can I use the output commercially?** Yes — you own the output data. Check the target site's Terms of Service for any usage restrictions on the scraped content itself. **Q: How do I handle rate limits?** Apify manages concurrency and retries automatically. For very large batches (10K+ items), run multiple smaller jobs in parallel instead of one mega-job for better reliability. ### 💰 Pricing Pay-per-event pricing — you only pay for what you actually extract. - **Actor Start:** $0.0050 - **Page Scraped:** $0.0150 ### 🔗 Related NexGenData Actors - [RAG Web Browser](https://apify.com/nexgendata/rag-web-browser?fpr=2ayu9b) - [Hacker News Scraper](https://apify.com/nexgendata/hacker-news-scraper?fpr=2ayu9b) ### 🚀 Apify Affiliate Program New to Apify?
