## 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

## Radaris People Search Scraper

Search [Radaris.com](https://radaris.com) by person name and get matching profiles — addresses, phone numbers, relatives, alternate names, and more.

### What it does

Radaris is a public-records people-search site. This actor lets you look up any US person by first and last name (with optional state filter) and returns the matching profile cards as structured data.

**Input:** Person name + optional state

**Output:** One dataset record per matching profile, including:

- Full name and profile URL
- Age and primary location
- Known relatives (pipe-separated)
- Alternate names / AKA (pipe-separated)
- Addresses, phones, and emails (when available on the detail page)

### Usage

#### Basic search

```json
{
    "firstName": "John",
    "lastName": "Smith",
    "maxItems": 20
}
```

#### State-filtered search

```json
{
    "firstName": "Jane",
    "lastName": "Doe",
    "state": "CA",
    "maxItems": 10
}
```

### Input parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `firstName` | string | Yes | First name to search for |
| `lastName` | string | Yes | Last name to search for |
| `state` | string | No | US state abbreviation to narrow results (e.g. `CA`, `NY`, `TX`) |
| `maxItems` | integer | No | Maximum number of profiles to return (default: 10) |

### Output schema

Each record in the dataset has the following fields:

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `name` | string | Full name of the person |
| `profile_url` | string | URL of the profile on Radaris |
| `age` | integer | Age of the person (when available) |
| `location` | string | Primary city and state |
| `addresses` | string | Known addresses (pipe-separated) |
| `phones` | string | Known phone numbers (pipe-separated) |
| `emails` | string | Known email addresses (pipe-separated) |
| `relatives` | string | Known relatives with ages (pipe-separated) |
| `alternate_names` | string | Alternate names / aliases (pipe-separated) |
| `scraped_at` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp |

### Data source

Data comes from [Radaris.com](https://radaris.com), a public-records aggregator that indexes publicly available information from government records, white pages, and other public sources.

### Technical notes

- Radaris is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile. This actor uses CapSolver to bypass the challenge (Tier 3 CF bypass).
- Residential proxy (DataImpulse) is used for reliable access.
- Search results are fetched from the `/p/{firstName}/{lastName}/` path.
- The actor is name-search only — no email or phone lookup is supported.

### Limitations

- Results are limited to what Radaris indexes. Some people may not appear.
- Addresses, phones, and emails on detail pages may be gated by Radaris (premium content); the scraper returns what is publicly accessible.
- State filtering narrows results but may not be exhaustive for common names.
