## 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.

### Who is it for
| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Business development | Contractors and consultants finding live tenders to bid on |
| Lead generation | Sales teams building lists of buyers and winning suppliers with contacts |
| Market intelligence | Analysts tracking who wins contracts, in which countries, for how much |
| Compliance and diligence | Teams screening suppliers and public spending on development projects |
### How to use it
1. Choose a **mode**: procurement notices (tenders) or contract awards (suppliers and amounts).
2. Optionally set a **country**, a **search keyword** (for example `road`, `water`, `solar`) and, for notices, a **notice type**.
3. Set **Max Items** and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**What is the difference between notices and awards?**
Notices are procurement opportunities: open and past tenders with deadlines and the buyer's contact. Awards are the contracts that were signed, including the winning supplier, the supplier's country and the amount paid in USD.
**Can I focus on one country?**
Yes. Set the country field (for example `Kenya`, `India` or `Brazil`) to keep only records for that country. Leave it empty to collect across all countries.
**Can I search by topic?**
Yes. Use the search keyword to keep only records whose description contains your term, such as `hospital`, `road` or `renewable`.
**How fresh is the data?**
Records are read at run time, so each one reflects the latest published notice or award at the moment of the run (see observedAt).
