## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### 📊 Example output (real run)

![Sample output](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/1ztQFHwG8acESTazI/records/website-tech-stack-detector-sample)

A real record from a live run — clean structured data, exported as CSV / JSON / Excel or via API.

**Paste a list of websites and instantly see what each one is built with.** This actor fetches every site and detects its full technology stack — e-commerce platform, CMS, JavaScript framework, analytics, ad pixels, payment processors, CRM/marketing tools, CDN/hosting, and key libraries. A fast, no-key **BuiltWith / Wappalyzer alternative.** You only pay per site analyzed.

- ✅ **Pay only per site analyzed** — no subscription, no per-lookup credits to track
- ✅ **No API key, no setup** — paste URLs, hit run
- ✅ **Fast & reliable** — direct fetch + signature matching, works on any public site
- ✅ **Pairs with lead-gen** — feed a Maps or contact scraper's output to qualify leads by tech

### How to use

1. Open the **Input** tab.
2. Paste websites or domains into **`websites`**:

```json
{ "websites": ["shopify.com", "https://stripe.com", "notion.so"] }
```

3. Click **Start**. Results stream in as each site is analyzed.

> 💡 You can paste a Google Maps scraper's output directly — items with a `website` field are read automatically.

### Output example

```json
{
  "website": "gymshark.com",
  "ecommerce": "Shopify",
  "framework": "React, Next.js",
  "analytics": "Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager",
  "ad_pixels": "Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel",

}
```

### Who it's for

- **Sales & lead-gen** — find every site on Shopify (or any platform) to pitch your product/agency
- **Competitive research** — see exactly what stack competitors run
- **Agencies** — qualify prospects by the tools they already use
- **Recruiters & analysts** — map technology adoption across a market

### FAQ

**Do I need an API key?** No. Paste websites and run.

**What if a site blocks the request?** You're only charged when a site is successfully analyzed.

**Can I feed it a Maps/contact scraper's results?** Yes — items with a `website` field are picked up automatically.

**How accurate is it?** It matches well-known signatures in each site's HTML and response headers — high precision on the popular technologies above.

# Actor input Schema

## `websites` (type: `array`):

List of website URLs or domains, e.g. \["shopify.com", "https://stripe.com"]. You can also paste a Google Maps scraper's output — items with a "website" field are read automatically.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Higher = faster but heavier. 10 is a good default.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "websites": [
    "shopify.com",
    "stripe.com",
    "notion.so"
  ],
  "maxConcurrency": 10
}
```
