## 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

### What does ATIA Membership Directory Scraper do?

This Actor scrapes the public [ATIA (Assistive Technology Industry Association) membership
directory](https://www.atia.org/about-atia/membership-directory/) and turns it into a clean,
structured dataset of assistive-technology vendor and organization records — company name,
location, phone, website, description, membership tier, and the directory's own "Areas of Focus"
tags (Disability, Age/Population, Environment). Run it on demand or on a schedule via Apify to keep
an always-current list of ATIA member organizations, with full API access, scheduling, and export
integrations.

### Why use ATIA Membership Directory Scraper?

- **Accessibility procurement research** — school districts, hospitals, and government buyers
  sourcing assistive technology vendors.
- **Market research** — competitive landscape mapping for AT/AAC vendors, investors, and analysts.
- **Partnership/business development** — quickly build a normalized outreach list of ATIA member
  organizations without manually paging through 12 directory pages.

### How to use ATIA Membership Directory Scraper

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. (Optional) Adjust **Start URLs** to scrape from a specific directory page, or leave the default
   to start at page 1.
3. (Optional) Adjust **Max items** / **Max pages** limits.
4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
5. Download your data in JSON, CSV, Excel, or other formats from the **Dataset** tab.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `startUrls` | array | Directory URL(s) to start from. Defaults to the directory's first page. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Maximum number of member records to scrape (default 200). |
| `maxPages` | integer | Maximum number of listing pages to follow (default 15). |

```json
{
  "startUrls": [{"url": "https://www.atia.org/about-atia/membership-directory/"}],
  "maxItems": 200,
  "maxPages": 15
}
```

### Output

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. Example item:

```json
{
  "company_name": "AAC Plus, Inc.",
  "profile_website_url": "https://aac-plus.com/",
  "address": "7941 Katy Fwy. Houston, TX 77024 United States",
  "phone": "866-322-2007",
  "company_description": "At AAC Plus Inc., our mission is to create engaging, innovative communication solutions...",
  "membership_tier": "standard",
  "disability_focus": ["Communication", "Learning"],
  "age_population_focus": ["Early childhood", "School"],
  "environment_focus": ["Accessibility", "Home", "School"],
  "source_page_number": 1,
  "source_url": "https://www.atia.org/about-atia/membership-directory/",
  "crawl_timestamp": "2026-07-11T00:30:17Z"
}
```

### Data table

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| company\_name | Member organization name |
| profile\_website\_url | Organization's own website |
| address | Street address / location as printed on the directory card |
| phone | Business phone number |
| company\_description | Public company description |
| membership\_tier | "premiere" or "standard" |
| disability\_focus | Disability-focus tags (e.g. Communication, Mobility) |
| age\_population\_focus | Age/population-focus tags (e.g. School, Adult) |
| environment\_focus | Environment-focus tags (e.g. Home, Accessibility) |
| source\_page\_number | Directory page number the row came from |
| source\_url | Directory page URL scraped |
| crawl\_timestamp | UTC timestamp of the scrape |

**Note:** this Actor intentionally does not extract individual contact names or direct email
addresses, even though they appear on the source page — only organizational fields are collected.

### Pricing / Cost estimation

**How much does it cost to scrape the ATIA membership directory?** Pricing is **$10 per 1,000
results**. The full directory is small (~130 members across 12 pages), so a full run typically
costs well under $2.

| Results | Estimated cost |
|---|---|
| 100 | $1.00 |
| 500 | $5.00 |
| 1,000 | $10.00 |
| 5,000 | $50.00 (exceeds the full directory — a full run will finish well before this) |

### Tips or Advanced options

- Leave `maxItems`/`maxPages` at their defaults to capture the full directory in one run.
- To re-scrape just a subset, set `startUrls` to a specific `/page/N/` URL and a small `maxPages`.
- Runs are polite by design — 1 second between page fetches — so a full-directory run takes well
  under a minute.

### FAQ, disclaimers, and support

This Actor only collects data that is already publicly visible on ATIA's own membership directory
page, with no login required. It does not collect or export individual contact names or email
addresses. Directory structure changes on ATIA's end could require a maintenance update — please
use the Issues tab to report any problems. Need a custom version (e.g. including contact-level
fields with appropriate consent, or a different target directory)? Reach out via the Issues tab.
