## 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.

## Tool: LinkedIn Post Generator
> Turn a topic into a ready to post LinkedIn update with a strong first line hook and clean line breaks, written in a voice that reads like a real person and not a bot.
**📥 [Input](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/linkedin-post-generator-tool/input-schema) · 📤 [Output](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/linkedin-post-generator-tool/output-schema) · 💰 [Pricing](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/linkedin-post-generator-tool/pricing) · ▶️ [Examples](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/linkedin-post-generator-tool/examples)**
Hook first earns the see more click
Reads human no cliches, no engagement bait
Mobile ready short paragraphs, clean breaks
### What it does
Give it a topic and pick a tone. It writes a full LinkedIn post with a hook in the first line, short paragraphs that are easy to read on a phone, and an optional call to action. You get back a clean, structured record:
- **post**, the full text with line breaks ready to paste
- **hook**, the opening line built to earn the see more click
- **cta**, the closing call to action
- **hashtags** when you ask for them, 3 to 5 relevant tags
- **characterCount** so you can see it fits comfortably
No em dashes, no bot voice, and no cringe engagement bait like "Agree?" or "Thoughts?". Just a post you would actually be happy to publish.
### Paid plans only
This tool runs on the latest, most reliable premium AI models. Because each run has a real model cost, it is available to paid Apify accounts only. A run started from a free account stops immediately with an upgrade message. Upgrade your Apify subscription to a paid plan and run it again.
### Who is it for
| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Founders and executives | Post consistently without the blank page |
| Ghostwriters | Draft client posts in a natural voice fast |
| Marketers | Keep a content calendar full and on brand |
| Job seekers | Share wins and lessons that get seen |
### Input
- **topic**: what the post should be about.
- **tone**: professional, personal story or contrarian.
- **cta**: optional call to action to close the post.
- **hashtags**: turn on to add 3 to 5 relevant hashtags.
### Notes
- The post is kept within LinkedIn friendly length and validated before it is returned.
- Review and edit before you post. You know your audience and voice best.

### 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).
