## Pricing

from $1.50 / 1,000 domain intelligence rows

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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.

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).

## Domain Intelligence Website Audit

Fast request-based website intelligence for lead generation, agency audits, sales research, enrichment workflows, and monitoring.

This Actor audits company domains without launching a browser. It fetches the public website, optional contact page, and DNS records, then returns a clean row with contact signals, technology stack, email health, lead score, and a practical sales angle.

### What You Get

- Final website URL and HTTP status
- HTTPS/reachability status
- Page title, H1, meta description, canonical URL, and language
- Public emails and phone numbers from the homepage and contact page
- Social profile links such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, GitHub, and TikTok
- Technology signals such as Shopify, WooCommerce, WordPress, Webflow, HubSpot, Klaviyo, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Stripe, Cloudflare, React, and Next.js
- MX, SPF, DMARC, and name server signals
- Lead score from 0-100 and lead grade from A-F
- Improvement reasons and a short sales angle
- Optional monitoring changes between runs

### Why This Actor Is Profit-Safe

- It uses HTTP requests and DNS lookups only.
- It does not run a browser.
- It does not use proxies.
- It has request-level and whole-run timeouts.
- One domain normally creates one paid dataset row.
- Invalid inputs, failed domains, and internal notices are saved to the key-value store instead of being written as paid error rows.
- Monitoring snapshots are stored outside the paid dataset.

### Quick Start

1. Add domains such as `stripe.com`, `shopify.com`, or `companycam.com`.
2. Keep **Scan contact page** enabled to find more public emails and phone numbers.
3. Keep **Include DNS email health** enabled for MX, SPF, and DMARC signals.
4. Set **Max domains** to your desired output cap.
5. Run the Actor and download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via API.

### Result Limits And Billing

Apify pay-per-event result billing is based on rows written to the default dataset.

- One audited domain normally writes one domain intelligence row.
- **Max domains** is a hard cap.
- The Actor never writes more domain rows than the selected cap.
- Failed fetches are recorded in `latest-notices` in the named key-value store.
- Monitoring state is saved in the named key-value store and does not create paid dataset rows by itself.
- When **Output only the changes** is enabled, the dataset contains only changed domain rows.

Example: if you submit 500 domains and set **Max domains** to 100, the Actor writes at most 100 paid dataset rows.

### Monitoring Logic

When monitoring is enabled, the Actor:

1. Audits each domain.
2. Stores a compact snapshot per domain in the named key-value store.
3. Compares the latest snapshot with the previous snapshot.
4. Saves detected changes to `latest-changes`.
5. Outputs either normal audit rows or change rows depending on **Output only the changes**.

Tracked changes include:

- HTTP status
- Title and meta description
- Public emails and phones
- Social links
- Technology signals
- Lead score and grade

### Output Fields

Common fields include:

- `domain`
- `finalUrl`
- `statusCode`
- `isReachable`
- `isHttps`
- `title`
- `metaDescription`
- `h1`
- `publicEmails`
- `phones`
- `contactPageUrl`
- `socialLinks`
- `technologies`
- `hasMx`
- `mxHosts`
- `spfRecord`
- `dmarcRecord`
- `nameServers`
- `leadScore`
- `leadGrade`
- `improvementReasons`
- `salesAngle`
- `scrapedAt`

### Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing.

- Actor start: `$0.003`
- Domain intelligence row:
  - Free tier: `$3.00 per 1,000 rows`
  - Bronze: `$2.50 per 1,000 rows`
  - Silver: `$2.00 per 1,000 rows`
  - Gold, Platinum, and Diamond: `$1.50 per 1,000 rows`

The platform usage cost is low because the Actor is request-based, uses 256 MB by default, and does not launch a browser or proxy. In cloud tests, a 5-domain run cost about `$0.00015` in platform usage, while each successful domain writes one paid domain intelligence row.

Failed domains are stored as key-value store notices instead of paid dataset rows. This keeps billing fair for users and protects the Actor from low-quality paid output.

### Notes

- The Actor reads public website and DNS information only.
- Email discovery is limited to public emails found on the audited pages.
- Some websites block requests or hide contact details behind JavaScript; those cases are logged as notices.
- Technology detection is best-effort and based on visible HTML, scripts, and response headers.

# Actor input Schema

## `domains` (type: `array`):

Company domains to audit. Examples: stripe.com, shopify.com, example-store.com.
## `urls` (type: `array`):

Optional full website URLs. Use this when you want to audit a specific hostname or landing page domain.
## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum domain intelligence rows to write. One domain normally produces one paid dataset row.
## `includeContactPage` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch the first detected contact/about/support page to find additional emails and phone numbers.
## `includeDns` (type: `boolean`):

Check MX, SPF, DMARC, and name server signals. This is request-based and does not use a browser.
## `includeTechnologySignals` (type: `boolean`):

Detect common website, ecommerce, analytics, support, and marketing tools from HTML, scripts, and headers.
## `includeSalesAngle` (type: `boolean`):

Generate a short pitch angle from detected gaps such as missing analytics, email deliverability, contact capture, or ecommerce retention tools.
## `monitorChanges` (type: `boolean`):

Save a snapshot per domain in a named key-value store and compare future runs for changed health, contacts, technology, or score.
## `onlyChanges` (type: `boolean`):

When monitoring is enabled, output only changed domain rows instead of all audit rows.
## `requestTimeoutSeconds` (type: `integer`):

Timeout per HTTP request. Lower values reduce runtime cost; higher values help slow websites.
## `maxRunSeconds` (type: `integer`):

Cost protection timeout for the whole run. The Actor stops before another domain if the budget is nearly exhausted.
