## What's an Apify Actor?

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).

<td align="center"><strong>Price & studio</strong><br>plus sale status</td>
<td align="center"><strong>JSON / CSV / Excel</strong><br>output formats</td>
</tr></table>

<br>

### What you get

Each record is one clip in the catalog, ready for a pricing model, a spreadsheet or market research:

- **title** and **url**: the clip and a direct link
- **price**, **discountedPrice** and **onSale**: current pricing and sale status
- **studioName**, **studioId** and **studioUrl**: the studio that sells it
- **category** and **categoryId**
- **relatedCategories** and **relatedKeywords**: how the clip is tagged
- **format**, **resolution**, **lengthMinutes**, **sizeMB**
- **addedAt**: when it was published
- **description**: the clip description
- **performers**, **thumb**, **previewLink**
- **observedAt**: when the record was read

### Who is it for

| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Pricing research | Creators and studios benchmarking clip prices in a niche |
| Market research | Analysts sizing demand and competition by category |
| Trend tracking | Teams watching which themes and studios are growing |
| Catalog building | Developers feeding a catalog or dashboard |

### How to use it

1. Enter a **search keyword** (or `all` to browse the newest clips), and optionally a **category id**.
2. Set **Max Items** and run.
3. Export the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull them through the Apify API.

### Frequently Asked Questions

**What can I search?**
Any keyword against the public catalog, optionally narrowed to a single category by its numeric id. Use `all` to browse the newest clips across every category.

**Does it include prices?**
Yes. Each clip returns its price, its discounted price when it is on sale, and a sale flag, so you can compare pricing across studios and niches.

**How many clips per run?**
As many as you set in Max Items. The catalog paginates automatically until the limit is reached or the results run out.

**Is any of this behind a login?**
No. The actor only reads the public catalog listing (titles, prices, studios and tags). It does not access purchased content.
