## 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.

### Who is it for
| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Sales prospecting | Teams building targeted B2B lead lists across Canada |
| Market research | Analysts mapping suppliers and competitors by city |
| Local marketing | Agencies reaching businesses in a category and area |
| Data enrichment | Ops teams adding phone, website and address to a CRM |
### How to use it
1. Add one or more **search queries** (for example `restaurant`, `plumber`, `dentist`, `law firm`).
2. Add one or more **cities** (for example `Toronto`, `Vancouver, BC`, `Calgary`) or postal codes.
3. Keep **Fetch Business Details** on for website, email and description, or turn it off for a faster phone and address run.
4. Set **Max Businesses To Scrape** and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**Which fields matter most for lead generation?**
Business name, phone and website are the core contact fields, with the full address and category to help you segment and qualify each lead.
**Does every listing include an email and website?**
Website, email and description are included whenever the business has published them. Phone and address coverage is very high across categories and cities.
**Can I search many categories and cities at once?**
Yes. Every search query is combined with every city, so one run can cover a whole prospecting list.
**Am I charged for empty runs?**
No. You are only charged per business returned, so a run that finds nothing costs nothing.
### Export, API and AI agents (x402 + MCP)
Export the scraped data to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, pull it as a **dataset** through the Apify **API**, or wire it into your app with **no code**. This web scraper and data extractor also works for bulk data extraction and scheduled runs.
For AI agents: this Actor is available on **x402**, Apify's agentic payment standard built with Coinbase. An AI agent can discover, pay for and run it on its own with a funded wallet and a single HTTP request: no account, no subscription, no API key and no human in the loop. It also runs as an **MCP** tool inside Claude, Cursor and other AI clients out of the box. Learn more about [x402 agentic payments on Apify](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402).
