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). # README ## Mascus Scraper — Global Heavy Machinery Collect machinery listings from Mascus.com, a global marketplace with over 400,000 listings spanning construction, agriculture, trucks, and forklifts across 60+ countries. ### What you can do with it - Research prices for used machinery across dozens of countries in one run - Build a global benchmark dataset for equipment valuation or cross-border trading - Track inventory levels for a specific brand or equipment category worldwide - Identify which regions have the highest supply of a given machine type - Support procurement decisions by comparing prices across multiple markets at once ### Filters | Filter | What it does | |---|---| | Category | Limit results to a specific equipment type (e.g. excavators, forklifts) | | Brand | Filter by manufacturer name | | Max Pages | Limit how many pages of results to collect | | Max Items | Set a cap on the total number of listings to collect | ### What you get | Field | What it contains | |---|---| | ad_id | Unique listing identifier | | title | Full listing headline | | make | Brand name | | model | Model name | | year | Year of manufacture | | price_clean | Asking price as a number | | currency | Currency of the price | | hours_int | Operating hours recorded on the machine | | country_iso | Country code of the seller | | location | Seller location | | seller | Seller name | | category | Equipment category | | subcategory | More specific equipment type | | serial_number | Machine serial number where listed | | weight_kg | Machine weight in kilograms where listed | | image_url | Link to the main listing photo | | url | Direct link to the listing on Mascus | | scraped_at | Date and time the data was collected | ### Pricing **$5.00 per 1,000 results. First 500 results free.** ### Legal This scraper collects publicly available listing data only. Seller contact details are included only when already displayed publicly by the site.
