# Apify Store Scraper (`gio21/apify-store-scraper`) Actor Scrape and analyze 20,000+ public actors from the Apify Store. - **URL**: https://apify.com/gio21/apify-store-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Gio](https://apify.com/gio21) (community) - **Categories:** Developer tools - **Stats:** 3 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing $3.00 / 1,000 actor scrapeds This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

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). # README ## Apify Store Scraper Scrape and analyze 20,000+ public actors from the Apify Store. Built for portfolio research, competitive intelligence, and pricing analysis. ### What you get per actor - **Identity:** id, name, title, username, owner full name, profile pictures - **Discovery:** description, categories, badge, URL - **Adoption stats:** totalRuns, totalUsers, totalUsers7Days / 30Days / 90Days, bookmarkCount, lastRunStartedAt - **Quality stats:** actorReviewRating, actorReviewCount, runs30Days breakdown (SUCCEEDED / FAILED / ABORTED / TIMED-OUT), successRate30d - **Pricing:** pricingModel, primaryEventPriceUsd, pricingTiersByEvent (FREE / BRONZE / SILVER / GOLD / PLATINUM / DIAMOND per event), apifyMarginPercentage, pricingStartedAt - **Detail enrichment (optional):** createdAt, modifiedAt, exampleRunInput, isPublic, isDeprecated ### Use cases - **Niche research:** search "instagram" / "linkedin" / "shopify" and rank competitors by 30-day users - **Pricing benchmarks:** see what every actor in your category charges across all tiers - **Market gaps:** filter `minTotalUsers > 100` and `category=X` to map the established players - **Portfolio audit:** scrape `username=` your own profile and dump stats for every actor - **Hot-and-rising:** sort by `newest` + filter `minTotalUsers > 10` to find rising actors in their first weeks ### Input | Field | Description | |---|---| | `searchTerm` | Free-text search across titles, names, descriptions. | | `category` | One of: AGENTS, AI, AUTOMATION, BUSINESS, DEVELOPER_TOOLS, ECOMMERCE, EDUCATION, INTEGRATIONS, JOBS, LEAD_GENERATION, MARKETING, NEWS, OPEN_SOURCE, OTHER, REAL_ESTATE, SEO_TOOLS, SOCIAL_MEDIA, TRAVEL, VIDEOS. | | `sortBy` | popularity / newest / relevance / totalUsers. | | `maxItems` | Cap on returned actors. The store has 20,000+ — be specific. | | `enrichWithDetails` | Adds createdAt, modifiedAt, exampleRunInput. Same flat price either way. | | `minTotalUsers` | Filter out abandoned / test actors. | | `pricingModelFilter` | PAY_PER_EVENT / PAY_PER_USAGE / PAY_PER_RESULT / FREE / FLAT_PRICE_PER_MONTH. | ### Pricing **$0.003 per actor scraped.** Pay-per-event. 1000 actors = $3. ### Notes - Uses Apify's own public Store API (no auth, no scraping needed for listing data). - The API filters some actors server-side (deprecated, draft, etc.) — counts toward offset, so pagination converges correctly. - Detail enrichment runs at concurrency=8 to keep wall-time low. - No proxy required. # Actor input Schema ## `searchTerm` (type: `string`): Search across actor titles, names, and descriptions (e.g. 'instagram', 'shopee', 'pdf'). Leave empty to list all. ## `category` (type: `string`): Filter by Apify Store category. Leave empty for no filter. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): How to sort the results. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of actors to return. ## `enrichWithDetails` (type: `boolean`): Adds extra fields from /v2/acts/{id}: createdAt, modifiedAt, builds, exampleRunInput. Doubles the API call count - cost is the same flat $0.003/actor regardless. ## `minTotalUsers` (type: `integer`): Drop actors below this cumulative user count. Useful to filter abandoned/private/test actors. ## `minTotalUsers30Days` (type: `integer`): Drop actors below this 30-day active user count. Cleaner signal than total users (which is cumulative). ## `pricingModelFilter` (type: `string`): Only return actors with this pricing model. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchTerm": "", "category": "", "sortBy": "popularity", "maxItems": 50, "enrichWithDetails": true, "minTotalUsers": 0, "minTotalUsers30Days": 0, "pricingModelFilter": "" } ```` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): All scraped Apify Store actors with stats, pricing, categories, owner, URL. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "maxItems": 50 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("gio21/apify-store-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
