Apify Portfolio Expansion Planner

Rank user-supplied candidate niches by public Store opportunity and textual adjacency to a user-supplied portfolio. Portfolio data is BYOD and never fetched from Apify. The report separates supplied portfolio context from public Store evidence and exposes bounded deterministic scores.

Pricing

• Candidate niches ranked by public Store opportunity and BYOD portfolio adjacency.
• Deterministic adjacency, novelty, priority, rationale, and coverage fields.
• Explicit separation between supplied portfolio text and Store-verified evidence.

Input

{
  "schemaVersion": "1.0",
  "requestId": "plan-001",
  "portfolioActors": [
    {
      "id": "a1",
      "name": "Apify Store Idea Validator",
      "title": "Apify Store Idea Validator",
      "description": "Scores ideas against public Store evidence.",
      "categories": ["MCP_SERVERS", "DEVELOPER_TOOLS"]
    }
  ],
  "candidateQueries": ["store opportunity", "pricing benchmark"],
  "maxResults": 10,
  "freshnessMinutes": 60,
  "detailLevel": "compact"
}

Portfolio data is validated as supplied evidence and is never fetched or treated as Store-verified. The business envelope is written to KVS key OUTPUT; replaying the same requestId cannot create another Dataset row or result-found charge.

FAQ / Support

Is portfolio text fetched from an account? No. Portfolio objects are supplied by the caller and are never fetched from Apify.

What this is NOT. It is not a portfolio editor, financial forecast, or guarantee that a candidate will succeed. Report bugs through the Actor page.
