The Manifest Agency Scraper — Global B2B Agencies API

Scrape The Manifest (Clutch’s sister B2B directory) agency and company listings into clean JSON: name, rating, reviews, hourly rate, min project size, team size, location, website, and profile URL.

Unofficial community Actor — not affiliated with The Manifest, Clutch, or The Manifest’s parent company. Uses only publicly available directory and profile HTML. Please respect robots.txt, rate limits, and The Manifest’s terms; enable Apify Proxy and keep concurrency modest.

Why use this

The Manifest indexes global marketing, design, and software agencies with client-review scores and budget bands. Lead-gen, vendor research, and market-mapping teams need those cards as structured rows — not copy-paste from a 3,000-page directory.

This Actor walks public /{category}/agencies or /{category}/companies pages (Cheerio, no browser), optionally enriches each /company/{slug} profile, and charges pay-per-event only for companies written to the dataset.

Pricing (PPE)

$1.20 / 1,000 companies via custom event company-scraped ($0.0012 each), plus a small apify-actor-start. No usage pass-through. Do not enable synthetic apify-default-dataset-item alongside company-scraped (avoids double billing). Memory: 512–2048 MB (default 1024).

Input

Field	Description
category	Friendly slug: web-design, digital-marketing, seo, software-development, web-development, app-development, …
