## 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.

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.

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

## Creator Brand Collaboration Finder

Find creator sponsorship signals with platform, niche, brand mention, collaboration format, audience clue, campaign code, and outreach angle.

Creator Brand Collaboration Finder is built for one focused job: turning public source pages or pasted research snippets into usable creator collaboration records. It does not try to be a generic webpage scraper. The parser, fields, examples, and dataset schema are shaped around this actor's specific business question.

Use it when you already have public pages, listings, announcements, reviews, directories, or copied snippets and want a repeatable way to extract the information that matters without manually filling a spreadsheet.

### Who Uses It

Influencer marketers, creator agencies, affiliate teams, DTC brands, sponsorship researchers, and partnership teams.

### What It Finds

The actor looks for signals connected to find creator sponsorship signals with platform, niche, brand mention, collaboration format, audience clue, campaign code, and outreach angle. It keeps the output focused on fields a buyer can review, filter, enrich, or send into a CRM, spreadsheet, product backlog, procurement workflow, or research database.

The extraction method is specific to this actor:

Creator-caption parsing with platform detection, brand/sponsor extraction, format classification, niche mapping, and outreach-angle generation.

### How It Works

1. The actor accepts public URLs or pasted snippets in `creatorSources`.
2. Public URLs are fetched when possible and converted into visible text.
3. Pasted snippets are processed directly, which is useful for pages that block automated fetching or require manual browsing.
4. Actor-specific parsing logic extracts only the fields listed below.
5. Empty or low-information inputs are skipped safely, with clean logs instead of noisy failed rows.

### Input

Use `creatorSources` for the sources you want to process. Each item can be a public URL or a focused text snippet.

```json
{
    "creatorSources": [
        "Instagram creator Maya Fit posts a sponsored reel with FitGear protein for women fitness beginners and shares code MAYA20.",
        "YouTube travel creator Leo Roams reviews TravelNest luggage in a packing tips video for digital nomads.",
        "TikTok skincare creator Sana Glow mentions DermLab serum in a morning routine partnership for acne-prone audiences."
    ],
    "maxResults": 3
}
````

### Output Fields

- `creatorName` - Creator, influencer, or public profile name.
- `platform` - Creator platform such as Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, or newsletter.
- `profileUrl` - Creator profile or post URL.
- `contentNiche` - Content niche or audience category.
- `brandMentioned` - Brand, sponsor, or product mentioned.
- `collaborationFormat` - Collaboration type such as sponsored reel, review, or routine partnership.
- `audienceSignal` - Audience segment described in the source.
- `sponsorCategory` - Sponsor category inferred from niche and brand.
- `campaignClue` - Promo code or campaign clue attached to the sponsorship.
- `outreachAngle` - Suggested reason to contact or invite the speaker.

### Example Output

```json
{
    "creatorName": "Maya Fit",
    "platform": "Instagram",
    "profileUrl": "https://example.com/creator",
    "contentNiche": "fitness and wellness",
    "brandMentioned": "FitGear",
    "collaborationFormat": "sponsored reel",
    "audienceSignal": "women fitness beginners",
    "sponsorCategory": "fitness and wellness",
    "campaignClue": "code MAYA20",
    "outreachAngle": "Invite as a VP Sales Operations on RevOps and pipeline automation"
}
```

### Best Use Cases

- Build a focused spreadsheet from repeated source pages.
- Review public signals before sales, partnership, product, procurement, or market research work.
- Monitor a category over time using the same output fields.
- Turn copied notes from newsletters, communities, directories, review pages, or search results into a structured dataset.

### Tips For Better Results

- Use source pages that visibly contain the signal you want this actor to extract.
- For hard-to-fetch sites, paste the relevant public text snippet directly into the input.
- Keep each input item focused on one page, listing, announcement, review, or profile.
- Review extracted rows before making high-stakes business, legal, procurement, or security decisions.

### Limitations

- The actor does not bypass logins, paywalls, private systems, CAPTCHA, or anti-bot walls.
- The actor extracts from visible text and may miss information hidden behind scripts or user interactions.
- Some fields may be empty when the source does not contain that information.
- Output quality depends on source quality, so focused source text produces the strongest rows.
