## 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 |
|---|---|
| Legal marketing and outreach | Agencies and vendors selling to law firms |
| Lead generation | Sales teams building attorney contact lists by city and specialty |
| Market research | Analysts mapping legal supply by practice area and region |
| Referral networks | Firms sourcing co-counsel and referrals in other markets |
### How to use it
1. Add one or more **practice areas** (for example `criminal-law`, `personal-injury-plaintiff`, `divorce`).
2. Add one or more **locations** as `state/city` (for example `california/los-angeles`, `texas/houston`).
3. Set **Max Lawyers To Scrape** and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**What practice area values can I use?**
Use directory slugs such as `criminal-law`, `personal-injury-plaintiff`, `divorce`, `family-law`, `dui-dwi`, `estate-planning`, `bankruptcy`, `immigration`, `employment-law` or `real-estate`. Each practice area is searched in every location you list.
**How do I write the location?**
Use `state/city` in lowercase with hyphens, for example `california/los-angeles`, `new-york/new-york` or `florida/miami`.
**Does every record include an address and phone?**
Most attorneys and firms include a phone and full postal address. A small number of promoted listings may omit some fields, which are returned as null.
**Am I charged for empty runs?**
No. You are only charged per real attorney or firm record returned. A run that finds nothing is not billed.
### 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).
