## 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).

## Email Intelligence & Enrichment API — Apify Actor

### What does Email Intelligence & Enrichment do?

**Email Intelligence & Enrichment** analyzes any email address and returns rich insights such as **name detection**, **gender and country prediction**, **email quality score**, **inbox pattern**, and **disposable email detection**. Provide one or multiple emails, optionally with **country hints**, and receive a structured enrichment profile.

Powered by a complex algorithm that mixes country names statistics and heuristics, this Actor can extract names even from emails where the name isn’t separated by dots, underscores, or any delimiter.

If you only need a lightweight API for **name → country/gender prediction**, you can use:
👉 **[https://apify.com/apioracle/name-info](https://apify.com/apioracle/name-info)**

### Why use Email Intelligence & Enrichment?

This Actor is ideal for:

* 🔍 Lead qualification
* 🎯 Marketing personalization
* 🧹 Data cleaning & validation
* 🛡️ Fraud detection
* 📊 Identity intelligence & enrichment pipelines

Thanks to the Apify platform, you get:

* ⚡ Cloud scaling
* 📅 Scheduling any extraction
* 🔌 REST API for full automation
* 🔁 Automatic retries & logging
* 📄 Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or API endpoints

### How do I use this Actor?

1. Open the Actor.
2. Go to the **Input** tab.
3. Add your emails (with optional `country_iso_2_hints` if you know the user country).
4. Click **Start**.
5. Download your dataset or access via API.

Common uses:

* CRM enrichment
* Identity verification workflows
* Automated lead scoring via API
* Bulk enrichment jobs

### Input example

```json
{
  "emails": [
    {
      "email": "mariorossi@emailprovider.com",
      "country_iso_2_hints": ["IT"]
    }
  ]
}
````

***

### Output example (simplified)

```json
[
  {
    "email": "lucamarmotta@emailprovider.com",
    "is_disposable_email": false,
    "quality_score": 0.8,
    "domain": "emailprovider.com",
    "email_pattern": "{first}{last}",
    "first_name": "mario",
    "last_name": "rossi",
    "guessed_gender": "male",
    "guessed_country": "Italy",
    "guessed_country_iso_2": "IT"
  }
]
```

Download your dataset in **JSON**, **CSV**, **Excel**, or via **API**.

***

### Tips & advanced options

- Add `country_iso_2_hints` for better accuracy.
- Process hundreds/thousands of emails in one run.
- Integrate in real-time using the Dataset API URL.
- Chain with other Actors for full contact enrichment.

### FAQ

#### Is this compliant?

The Actor does **not** scrape websites and does **not** access private data. It analyzes only the email string you provide. If handling personal data, ensure compliance with GDPR or local regulations.

#### Can I use this via API?

Yes — every run generates an API endpoint containing your dataset.

#### What formats can I export?

JSON, CSV, Excel, or via REST API.

### Need only name → gender/country prediction?

Use the lightweight API version here:
👉 **<https://apify.com/apioracle/name-info>**

***

### Need a custom version?

If you want deeper scoring, company enrichment, or custom logic, open an Issue or contact the developer through Apify.
