## 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.
- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).
For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

> Look up any Greek company in the General Commercial Registry (GEMI) by name, registry number or VAT and get clean, structured records: GEMI number, VAT (AFM), legal form, status, registered address, share capital, activity (NACE/KAD) codes, the statutory officers and legal representatives behind the business, chamber membership and public phone and email.

Search or ID lookup by name, GEMI number or VAT
Officers & owners directors & representatives
Contacts & VAT phone, email & AFM
### What you get
Every company record includes, where the registry publishes it:
- **Identity** — GEMI number, Greek and Latin name, trading title, VAT (AFM)
- **Legal** — legal form, status, suspension flag, registration and start dates, branch flags
- **Location** — full registered address, city and postcode
- **Capital** — share capital amount, currency, number of shares, nominal price
- **Activity** — all KAD/NACE activity codes with descriptions and the stated company purpose
- **People** — statutory officers with role and VAT, plus legal representatives
- **Chamber** — chamber of commerce name, registration number, phone, email and address
- **Contacts** — public company phone and email
- **Provenance** — source registry page URL and an observedAt timestamp
You only pay for real company records. Empty or failed runs are not charged.
### Who is it for
| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| KYB and compliance | Teams verifying Greek counterparties and their officers |
| Lead generation | Sales teams building lists of companies and decision makers |
| Due diligence | Analysts checking status, capital, officers and registered details |
| Data enrichment | Builders adding company identifiers, VAT and activity codes to their records |
### How to use it
1. Add one or more **search queries** (a company name such as `Coca-Cola`, a GEMI number, or a VAT/AFM number).
2. Keep **Fetch full company details** on to attach officers, capital, activity codes and contacts.
3. Optionally narrow with **filters**: legal type, status, city, postcode, activity (KAD/NACE) code or registration date.
4. Set **Max Companies** and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**Can I search by name, or do I need an ID?**
Both. A name runs a registry search and returns every matching company; a GEMI number or VAT (AFM) pinpoints a single company.
**Does it include company officers and owners?**
Yes. With full details on, each company carries its statutory officers with their role and VAT, plus the legal representatives on record.
**Can I browse without a keyword?**
Yes. Leave the search queries empty and set filters such as city, postcode, legal type, status or activity code to list every company that matches.
**What do the statuses mean?**
Active means the company is on the register and trading; other values include Dormant, Bankruptcy, Dissolution - Liquidation and Deletion.
**How fresh is the data?**
Every record is read live at run time and carries an observedAt timestamp.
### Export, API and AI agents (x402 + MCP)
Export the scraped data to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, pull it as a **dataset** through the Apify **API**, or wire it into your app with **no code**. This web scraper and data extractor also works for bulk data extraction and scheduled runs.
For AI agents: this Actor is available on **x402**, Apify's agentic payment standard built with Coinbase. An AI agent can discover, pay for and run it on its own with a funded wallet and a single HTTP request: no account, no subscription, no API key and no human in the loop. It also runs as an **MCP** tool inside Claude, Cursor and other AI clients out of the box. Learn more about [x402 agentic payments on Apify](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402).
