## 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

## DesignRush Scraper — Premium B2B Agency Leads with Minimum Budget Data

**Extract 40,000+ verified B2B agencies from DesignRush** — the brand-discovery directory used by Fortune 500 procurement teams. Every record ships with **email, phone, full street address, hourly rate, minimum project budget, employees, founded year, and inline verified reviews** — clean JSON / CSV / Excel, no manual exports.

This is the **richest agency dataset on the open web** packaged into a single Apify actor: better contact coverage (100% email + phone in our sample), more granular pricing signals (minimum budget AND hourly rate), and full review bodies embedded in each record.

***

### ⭐ Why this scraper beats every alternative

DesignRush is the directory **Fortune 500 marketing departments use to shortlist agencies**. Unlike GoodFirms or Clutch, every listed agency declares:

- **Minimum project budget** (`$10K–$25K`, `$50K–$100K`, `$100K+`, `Inquire`) — a fit signal the other directories simply don't carry
- **DesignRush Design Awards** — third-party validated top-quality marker, ideal for elite-tier targeting
- **Notable client logos** — Microsoft, Sony, P\&G class brands they've served (instant trust signal for outreach)
- **Portfolio gallery** — visual work samples directly in the record

You get this data **at scale**: 50 agencies per category page (vs 10 on competitors) → 5× faster bulk discovery, lower cost per lead.

#### Who buys this data

- **B2B sales teams** running outbound to digital agencies
- **Agency-tech vendors** (project management tools, time tracking, dev tools, design plugins) targeting their ICP
- **Account-based marketing (ABM) teams** building hand-picked Tier-1 account lists
- **Procurement / RFP teams** sourcing creative & marketing partners with budget signals
- **Investors / M\&A analysts** screening acquisition targets in the creative-services space
- **Recruiters & talent platforms** placing creatives in award-winning agencies
- **PR & comms teams** monitoring agency awards & client wins for media outreach
- **SaaS founders** building "agencies hire SaaS" lookalike pipelines
- **Market researchers & strategists** sizing the design / digital-marketing TAM

If you've ever paid four-figure prices to ZoomInfo, Apollo, Crunchbase, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator for agency leads — this scraper delivers a richer, more specific dataset for a fraction of the cost.

### 💰 Real-world use cases — money-making scenarios

#### 1. Build a 5,000-lead outbound list for B2B SaaS targeting agencies

You sell a creative-team productivity tool. Run:

```json
{
  "categorySlugs": ["web-design-companies", "branding-agencies", "digital-marketing"],
  "locationSlugs": ["us"],
  "minRating": 4.0,
  "minReviews": 5,
  "maxRecords": 5000,
  "scrapeReviews": false
}
```

→ 5,000 mid-to-premium US agencies with **email, phone, hourly rate, minimum budget**, ready for Apollo, Smartlead, Lemlist, or HubSpot import.

#### 2. Elite-tier targeting — only award-winning agencies

You sell premium services to top agencies and want only the cream. Run:

```json
{
  "categorySlugs": ["web-design-companies", "design-agencies"],
  "awardWinnersOnly": true,
  "minRating": 4.8,
  "minReviews": 10,
  "scrapeReviews": true
}
```

→ Hand-picked Tier-1 list with reviews for personalized outreach.

#### 3. ABM segmentation by budget × team-size × geography

You sell to mid-market agencies (`50–99 employees`) in California willing to spend $50K+ on a project. Filter post-export by `minBudget` + `employeesRange` + `headquarters.state` — instant ICP segment.

#### 4. Competitive intelligence — track an agency vertical

Schedule a weekly run on `branding-agencies` + `naming-agencies`. Diff against last week's dataset → new reviews, new clients, new award badges. Sales-trigger gold.

#### 5. Recruitment & talent placement

You place creative talent. Pull every award-winning agency by city → know exactly where the top creative jobs sit, with employee bands and hiring signals.

#### 6. PR & media outreach pipeline

You're a PR firm. Pull all agencies with new DesignRush awards in the last month (compare scrape datasets) → pitch them coverage opportunities the day their award lands.

#### 7. M\&A target screening

You're a PE firm acquiring agency rollups. Pull every agency with `employees: 100–249`, `rating: 4.5+`, `minBudget: $50K+` — instant longlist of cash-positive acquisition candidates with revenue proxies.

#### 8. SaaS lookalike modeling

Your top 100 customers are mid-size design agencies. Pull every similar agency by service-mix + employees + country → instant lookalike pipeline.

#### 9. Programmatic SEO — "Best X Agencies in Y" pages

Pull every category × every state → generate hundreds of programmatic landing pages ("Best Web Design Agencies in California", "Top Branding Firms in New York") with rich, structured data.

#### 10. Investor due-diligence prep

You're investing in a SaaS sold to agencies. Pull the full agency landscape in 24h → understand TAM, geographic concentration, employee bands, award rates. One run = investor-grade landscape map.

### 💡 Tips & best practices

#### Sales / outbound

- **Start narrow, then scale.** Always run `maxRecords: 100` for the first run to validate the data on your real ICP before pulling thousands.
- **Run with `scrapeProfileDetails: true`** for outbound — listing card data alone misses the email/phone/full address.
- **Skip reviews for pure lead-gen** (`scrapeReviews: false`) if you only need contact data — faster runs, lower cost.
- **Combine filters for ICP precision** — `minRating: 4.5` + `minReviews: 10` + `employeesFilter` + `locationSlugs` zeroes in on your perfect prospect.

#### Competitive intelligence

- Set `scrapeReviews: true` for full review bodies (default ON, no extra request cost) — gold for understanding what clients say about your competitors.
- Use the **reviews view** (CSV export) for sentiment analysis, LLM-based theme extraction, or quote mining for case-study pitches.

#### Elite-tier targeting

- `awardWinnersOnly: true` + `minRating: 4.8` + `minReviews: 20` = the top decile of agencies. Use for premium outreach where every contact deserves a custom approach.

#### Speed vs depth

- `scrapeProfileDetails: false` → ultra-fast listing-only discovery, 50 leads/page, cheaper.
- `scrapeProfileDetails: true` (default) → full data per profile, recommended for any paid outreach.

#### Geography

- Pair `locationSlugs: ["us"]` with state slugs for hyper-local: e.g. `["us", "california", "new-york"]`. Each combination is paginated separately, giving you maximum coverage.

#### Cost management

- The first 100 records every run are free — design your queries to fit within that for testing.
- For huge runs (10K+ records), schedule them overnight with `maxConcurrency: 2` for stable execution.

### ❓ FAQ

**Is the data fresh?**
Every run pulls live data at the moment of execution. Schedule daily or weekly runs for change tracking (new agencies, new awards, new reviews).

**Can I scrape a single specific agency?**
Yes — pass it in `agencySlugs: ["agency-slug"]` or include the profile URL in `startUrls`.

**Can I export to my CRM?**
Yes — the dataset is exportable as **CSV, XLSX, or JSON**, and Apify's API lets you pipe it directly into HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Apollo, Clay, Smartlead, Lemlist, Outreach, Reply.io, or any custom stack.

**Will the same agency appear twice in one run?**
No — deduplication by slug across all discovery sources.

**Can I filter by award status?**
Yes — `awardWinnersOnly: true` returns only agencies holding a DesignRush Design Award badge.

**Can I filter by rating or review count?**
Yes — `minRating: 4.5` (or any 0–5 value) + `minReviews: 10` for quality filters.

**Can I limit to a specific country, state, or city?**
Yes — `locationSlugs: ["us", "california", "new-york"]`. Combine with `categorySlugs` for tight segmentation.

**Are reviews included by default?**
Yes — `scrapeReviews: true` is the default and reviews are embedded in each record at no extra request cost.

**Can I schedule recurring runs?**
Absolutely — Apify's built-in scheduler runs this scraper on any cron expression. Daily / weekly / monthly all supported.

**Does this work for software listings too?**
No — DesignRush is exclusively an **agency directory**. For SaaS / software listings, see our **GoodFirms Scraper** which includes software product data.

**Is there a free tier?**
Yes — the **first 100 records per run are free**. Plenty for validating the data on your real ICP before scaling.

**Can I sort the data after I scrape?**
Yes — open the CSV in Excel / Google Sheets and sort by any field (`rating`, `hourlyRateRange`, `minBudget`, `employeesRange`, `reviewCount`, etc.).

**What's the difference between this and the GoodFirms Scraper?**
GoodFirms has more total agencies (~110K vs 40K) but DesignRush has **better contact coverage** (100% email + phone), **minimum budget data** (which GoodFirms lacks), and **award badges**. For pure outbound contact lists, DesignRush is denser per record. For maximum agency volume, GoodFirms wins. Many users run both and dedupe by website.

***

### 💸 Pricing

This scraper uses **Pay-per-result** pricing — you pay only for the records you actually receive. No subscriptions, no platform fees from us. Fresh B2B agency leads at a fraction of ZoomInfo / Apollo / Crunchbase pricing per record.

The **first 100 results per run are free** so you can validate the data before scaling.

Advanced: paste any DesignRush category, country/state, or profile URL to scrape it directly. Most users can leave this empty and use the category picker above.

## `requestDelay` (type: `integer`):

Pause between requests. Higher values run more gently.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many requests to run at once. Keep low (1–3) for the most reliable runs.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Leave the default (no proxy) for best results. Only enable a proxy if you hit per-IP rate limits on very large runs, and prefer Residential if you do.

## Actor input object example

```json

# Actor output Schema

## `dataset` (type: `string`):

Open to view, filter and export all scraped results from this run (JSON, CSV, Excel).

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "categorySlugs": [
        "web-design-companies",
        "digital-marketing"
    ],
    "locationSlugs": [],
    "scrapeProfileDetails": true,
    "scrapeReviews": true,
    "maxRecords": 100,
    "agencySlugs": [],
    "startUrls": [],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": false
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("haketa/designrush-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "categorySlugs": [
        "web-design-companies",
        "digital-marketing",
    ],
    "locationSlugs": [],
    "scrapeProfileDetails": True,
    "scrapeReviews": True,
    "maxRecords": 100,
    "agencySlugs": [],
    "startUrls": [],
    "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": False },
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("haketa/designrush-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "categorySlugs": [
    "web-design-companies",
    "digital-marketing"
  ],
  "locationSlugs": [],
  "scrapeProfileDetails": true,
  "scrapeReviews": true,
  "maxRecords": 100,
  "agencySlugs": [],
  "startUrls": [],
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}' |
apify call haketa/designrush-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,haketa/designrush-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
