## 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.

# README

## Press Release Partnership Signal Extractor

Monitor press releases for partnership signals with companies, announcement type, target market, commercial motion, and follow-up reason.

Press Release Partnership Signal Extractor is built for one focused job: turning public source pages or pasted research snippets into usable partnership signal 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

Partner managers, sales teams, market researchers, ecosystem teams, corporate development analysts, and B2B lead researchers.

### What It Finds

The actor looks for signals connected to monitor press releases for partnership signals with companies, announcement type, target market, commercial motion, and follow-up reason. 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:

Announcement parsing with partner-company extraction, date detection, motion classification, target-market mapping, and follow-up trigger generation.

### How It Works

1. The actor accepts public URLs or pasted snippets in `pressReleaseSources`.
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 `pressReleaseSources` for the sources you want to process. Each item can be a public URL or a focused text snippet.

```json
{
    "pressReleaseSources": [
        "July 10, 2026: TaskFlow partners with HubSpot to launch embedded workflow automation for RevOps teams.",
        "SecureLayer announces alliance with CloudAudit for managed SOC 2 readiness services targeting healthcare SaaS.",
        "CartPilot integrates with Klaviyo to offer retention campaigns for Shopify Plus merchants."
    ],
    "maxResults": 3
}
````

### Output Fields

- `primaryCompany` - Main company in the announcement.
- `partnerCompany` - Partner, alliance, or integration company.
- `announcementDate` - Announcement date when visible.
- `announcementType` - Announcement verb or type.
- `partnershipMotion` - Type of partnership motion.
- `targetMarket` - Market or buyer segment targeted by the announcement.
- `commercialSignal` - Commercial reason the partnership matters.
- `followUpReason` - Reason to follow up from a sales or partner perspective.
- `pressReleaseUrl` - Press release or announcement URL.

### Example Output

```json
{
    "primaryCompany": "TaskFlow",
    "partnerCompany": "HubSpot",
    "announcementDate": "July 10, 2026",
    "announcementType": "partners with",
    "partnershipMotion": "integration partnership",
    "targetMarket": "RevOps teams",
    "commercialSignal": "embedded workflow automation",
    "followUpReason": "New integration partnership creates ecosystem outreach timing",
    "pressReleaseUrl": "https://example.com/press-release"
}
```

### 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.

# Actor input Schema

## `pressReleaseSources` (type: `array`):

Add public URLs or paste focused text snippets. Use one source per row. The actor extracts only signals that match its specific purpose.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of useful dataset rows to save.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "pressReleaseSources": [
    "July 10, 2026: TaskFlow partners with HubSpot to launch embedded workflow automation for RevOps teams.",
    "SecureLayer announces alliance with CloudAudit for managed SOC 2 readiness services targeting healthcare SaaS.",
    "CartPilot integrates with Klaviyo to offer retention campaigns for Shopify Plus merchants."
  ],
  "maxResults": 25
}
```
