## 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/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.

### What you get

Each record is one agency, ready for a lead list or a market map:

- **companyName**: the agency or company name
- **serviceCategory**: the service the agency was listed under
- **location**, **city**, **country**: where they are based
- **hourlyRate**: their hourly rate band
- **teamSize**: their employee count band
- **foundedYear**: the year they were founded
- **rating** and **reviewCount**: their score and number of client reviews
- **website**: the agency's own website
- **description**: a short summary of what they do
- **profileUrl**: a direct link to the full profile
- **sponsored**: whether the listing is a paid placement
- **observedAt**: when the record was collected

### Who is it for

| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Outbound sales | Teams selling tools and services to agencies |
| Agency research | Buyers shortlisting vendors by price and size |
| Competitive analysis | Agencies benchmarking rivals in their category |
| Market mapping | Analysts sizing a category by provider |

### How to use it

1. Add one or more **service categories** (for example `mobile app development`, `web design`, `digital marketing` or `software development`). One run scrapes them all.
2. Optionally add **locations** (country names or 2-letter codes like `us`, `gb`, `in`) to focus on specific markets.
3. Set **Max agencies** to cap how many to collect.
4. Run it. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.

### Frequently Asked Questions

**What categories can I search?**
Any agency service category, such as mobile app development, web design, digital marketing, ecommerce development, software testing, artificial intelligence and more. You can also paste a directory URL.

**Can I filter by country?**
Yes. Add one or more locations and the actor focuses on agencies in those countries.

**Do I get the agency's own website?**
Yes, when the listing exposes it, so you can reach the company directly rather than only through the directory.

**Do I pay for empty runs?**
No. You are only charged per real agency record returned. A run that finds nothing costs nothing.

**How fresh is the data?**
Listings, rates and ratings are read live at run time (see observedAt).
