## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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

### 🚀 Collabstr Scraper

Extract **creator profiles, exact service pricing, ratings, and reviews** from [Collabstr](https://collabstr.com), the influencer marketplace where brands hire vetted Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and UGC creators. The **Collabstr Scraper** turns the marketplace into structured data you can use for influencer discovery, pricing benchmarks, and outreach — exported as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Run it on the [Apify platform](https://apify.com) to get API access, scheduling, integrations, and automatic retries out of the box.

### ✨ Features

- 💰 **Exact pricing intelligence**: Get every creator's service packages with real prices — "1 Instagram Reel $500", "2 Instagram Stories $175", "4 UGC Product Photos $200" — plus the overall min/max price range.
- ⭐ **Ratings & reviews**: Average rating, review count, and the full list of reviews (author, date, score, and text).
- 🔗 **Real social handles**: The creator's actual Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and website links — ready to enrich or contact.
- 🌍 **Profile details**: Name, bio, job title, profile image, location, and the platforms each creator works on.
- 🔎 **Flexible inputs**: Scrape by category/search page, by individual creator URL, or across the entire site via the sitemap.

### 🛠️ How to use the Collabstr Scraper

1. **Add start URLs** – Paste one or more Collabstr URLs: a category page (e.g. `https://collabstr.com/search-influencers?c=fashion`), an individual creator profile (e.g. `https://collabstr.com/shweta-rao`), or the sitemap to crawl the whole site.
2. **Set a limit** – Choose how many creators to scrape with **Max items** (default 50).
3. **Run it** – Start the Actor and watch structured creator data fill the dataset.
4. **Export** – Download the results as JSON, CSV, HTML, or Excel, or pull them through the Apify API.

### 📥 Input

### 💵 How much does it cost to scrape Collabstr?

This Actor uses a **pay-per-result** model:

| Event           | Price             |
| --------------- | ----------------- |
| Actor start     | $0.005 per run    |
| Creator profile | $0.01 per creator |

That's **$10 per 1,000 creators**. The default 50-creator run costs about **$0.51**. New Apify accounts include free monthly usage credits, so you can try it at no cost.

### 💡 Tips

- Category and search pages return up to 24 creators each. To scrape at scale, add the **sitemap** URL (`https://collabstr.com/sitemap.xml`) as a start URL and set **Max items** to the volume you need.
- Combine multiple category URLs in one run to build niche-specific creator lists (fashion, beauty, travel, fitness, food, and more).
- Use the exposed social handles to enrich records with follower counts from dedicated Instagram/TikTok scrapers.

### ❓ FAQ

**Is scraping Collabstr legal?**
This Actor collects publicly available data. You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with Collabstr's Terms of Service and applicable laws (including data-protection regulations). Scrape responsibly and do not collect private or personal data without a lawful basis.

**Can I get follower counts?**
Follower counts are not shown publicly on Collabstr. The Actor returns each creator's real social handles, which you can pair with an Instagram or TikTok scraper to resolve follower numbers.

**Something isn't working — where do I report it?**
Use the **Issues** tab on the Actor's page to report problems or request features. Custom solutions are available on request.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Collabstr URLs to scrape. You can use category/search pages (e.g. https://collabstr.com/search-influencers?c=fashion), individual creator profile pages (e.g. https://collabstr.com/shweta-rao), or the sitemap (https://collabstr.com/sitemap.xml) to scrape creators across the whole site.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of creator profiles to scrape. Set to 0 for no limit.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):
