# Keyword Gap Analysis: Find Competitor Keywords You're Missing

**Use case:** 

Enter your site and your competitors and get every Google keyword they rank for that you don't, sorted by the traffic it brings them. Each keyword comes with their position and ranking URL, search volume, CPC, difficulty and intent. Brand keywords are filtered out, so you get terms you can actually target. Pay per keyword, no Semrush or Ahrefs subscription.

## Input

```json
{
  "mode": "gap",
  "targets": [
    "competitor.com"
  ],

  "maxCompetitors": 20,
  "sortBy": "traffic",
  "gapType": "missing",
  "resultType": "organic",
  "maxPosition": 100,
  "minSearchVolume": 50,
  "brandKeywords": "auto",

```

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/pravus/competitor-keywords.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
