## 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.

# README

## 🛠️ TechHawk — Website Tech Stack Detector + Lead Enricher (BuiltWith & Wappalyzer Alternative)

**Find out what technology any website is built with — and get the company's contact details in the same row.** A technology lookup + lead enrichment tool: detect the tech stack of any website (CMS, e-commerce platform, marketing tools, analytics, CRM) and export company name, emails, phones and LinkedIn — ready for sales prospecting, CRM enrichment and competitive analysis.

Give TechHawk a list of websites. For each one it returns the **full technology
stack** (7,500+ technologies: CMS, e-commerce, marketing automation, analytics,
payment processors, CRM, live chat, hosting, CDN, frameworks…) **plus a ready-to-use
B2B lead** — company name, emails, phone numbers, social links, LinkedIn URL, address
and country.

This is the affordable, pay-per-result **BuiltWith alternative** and **Wappalyzer
alternative** (BuiltWith costs $295–$6,000/mo). Build technographic lead lists like
*"every Shopify store using Klaviyo"*, *"WordPress sites using HubSpot"* or
*"agencies running GoHighLevel"* — and because the contact data is right there, you
can actually reach them. Find companies by the technology they use, then prospect them.

### Why it's different

Most tech-detectors just tell you the stack. Sales teams' #1 wish is **tech
detection + real contact data on one row** — that's exactly what TechHawk delivers.

- 🧠 **7,500+ technologies** via the open-source Wappalyzer fingerprint database
- 📇 **Lead enrichment built in** — emails, phones, socials, company, address
- 🎯 **Filter by technology** — keep only sites using Shopify / HubSpot / GHL / etc.
- 🌍 **Works worldwide** — US, UK, Germany, Singapore, India… (address via schema.org, country via ccTLD)
- 🔒 **No key, no browser, no external API** — reads only the site's own public HTML, so it never breaks when a third-party API goes down

### Input

```json
{
  "websites": ["gymshark.com", "allbirds.com", "techcrunch.com"],
  "mustUseTechnologies": ["Shopify"],
  "onlyWithContact": true,
  "crawlContactPage": true
}
```

| Field | What it does |
|-------|--------------|
| `websites` | Domains / URLs to analyse (one per line) |
| `mustUseTechnologies` | Keep only sites using ANY of these (build targeted lists) |
| `onlyWithContact` | Drop rows with no email/phone |
| `crawlContactPage` | Also crawl the contact/about page for more contacts (recommended) |
| `concurrency` | Sites analysed in parallel (1–10) |

### Output (one row per site)

```json
{
  "domain": "allbirds.com",
  "company_name": "Allbirds",
  "country": "United States",
  "technologies": ["Shopify", "Cloudflare", "Google Tag Manager", ...],
  "technology_count": 12,
  "ecommerce": ["Shopify"],
  "marketing_automation": ["Klaviyo"],
  "analytics": ["Google Analytics"],
  "emails": ["help@allbirds.com"],
  "phones": ["+1 888 963 8944"],
  "social_links": { "instagram": "...", "linkedin": "..." },
  "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/allbirds",
  "address": "...",
  "has_contact": true
}
```

Technologies are also grouped in `technologies_by_category`, and the popular
lead-gen categories are surfaced as flat columns: `cms`, `ecommerce`, `analytics`,
`marketing_automation`, `email_marketing`, `crm`, `live_chat`, `advertising`,
`payment`, `hosting`, `cdn`, `frameworks`.

### Great for

- **Agencies & SaaS** — find businesses using (or missing) a specific tool, then pitch them
- **Competitive intelligence** — see a competitor's or a whole niche's stack
- **Lead lists** — pair with a Google Maps / local-business run, then filter by tech + contact
- **AI agents** — a clean, pay-per-result tool an agent can call to profile any domain

### Notes

- Detection reads the public HTML, headers, cookies and meta — no JavaScript
  execution, so client-side-only tags loaded dynamically may not appear. The stack
  that matters for prospecting (platform, e-commerce, marketing, hosting) is caught.
- Contact coverage is best on sites that publish an email/phone (most SMBs do);
  large brands often hide contacts behind forms.

# Actor input Schema

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

One per line — e.g. gymshark.com, https://allbirds.com. Pair this with a Google Maps / lead-finder run to analyse a whole niche's tech + contacts.

## `mustUseTechnologies` (type: `array`):

Filter the output to companies that use ANY of these (e.g. 'Shopify', 'Klaviyo', 'HubSpot', 'GoHighLevel', 'WordPress'). Leave empty to keep every site. This is how you build 'every Shopify store using Klaviyo' lists.

## `onlyWithContact` (type: `boolean`):

Drop rows that have no reachable contact — keep only usable leads.

## `crawlContactPage` (type: `boolean`):

Also open the site's contact/about page to pull extra contact details. Slightly slower, much better contact coverage. Recommended ON for lead generation.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many sites to analyse in parallel (1-10).

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "websites": [
    "gymshark.com",
    "allbirds.com",
    "techcrunch.com"
  ],
  "mustUseTechnologies": [],
  "onlyWithContact": false,
  "crawlContactPage": true,
  "concurrency": 5
}
```
