## 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

## TTAB Opposition Tracker

Track TTAB trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings. Built for IP counsel, brand teams, researchers and AI agents.

> This actor surfaces public IP records as data for your attorney or IP team — it is not legal advice or a legal clearance opinion.

### ⏰ Run this as a opposition watch (recommended)

Every IP registry actor is a monitoring subscription, not a one-shot lookup. Schedule a weekly sweep and catch new filings as they land:

```json
{
  "query": "your mark",
  "limit": 100
}
```

Weekly cron (`0 8 * * 1`) turns this into an always-on opposition watch.

### 📊 What you get

Clean JSON, one record per proceeding (full output has 13 fields):

- `allDefendants` — All Defendants
- `allPlaintiffs` — All Plaintiffs
- `dataSource` — Data Source
- `defendant` — Defendant
- `filingDate` — Filing Date
- `markRegistrationNumbers` — Mark Registration Numbers
- `markSerialNumbers` — Mark Serial Numbers
- `plaintiff` — Plaintiff
- `proceedingNumber` — Proceeding Number
- `proceedingType` — Proceeding Type

**Pricing:** $0.10 per proceeding (Pay-Per-Event) — about **10 proceedings per $1**.

### 🤖 Use with AI agents

Point Claude, the OpenAI Agents SDK, an n8n flow or any MCP-aware client at it and run TTAB trademark opposition proceedings on demand.

**Sample agent prompt:**

```
Track new TTAB opposition proceedings involving a company.
```

**Agentic payments (x402):** Supports agentic payment via x402 — agents can call this actor with USDC, no API key required.
