🎯 Features

Actor automatically detects each type of contact information and deduplicates it in the output, making it easy to process and analyze the collected data. Here's what makes it stand out from the crowd:

• Domain-based grouping: actor automatically organizes extracted data by domain.
• Emails, phones and social media platforms: actor extracts emails, phone numbers and links to Discord, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Reddit, Snapchat, Telegram, TikTok, Twitch, Twitter/X, YouTube.
• Adjustable crawl limits: actor allows setting the limit on how many pages it will crawl per domain and how deep it will go into the website. Algorithm prioritises "team" and "about us" pages, making useful data available with less pages crawled.
• Cost-efficiency: written in Rust with performance in mind. Actor skips full browser rendering, which reduces memory use and speeds up crawling, allowing more work on less hardware.

Limitation: actor only validates the format of links found on the target website; it does not verify whether the contact information is active or correct.

🛠 Troubleshooting

Why hasn’t the actor discovered any emails, even though I can clearly see one on the website?

Some webmasters use services like Cloudflare to protect their websites. These services can hide email addresses from crawlers like ours. That’s expected behavior, and we currently can’t bypass it. Still, feel free to share your case with us — we’re happy to take a look and help if we can.

Why hasn’t the actor discovered any pages?

There are a few possible reasons:

• Different subdomain: the actor treats each subdomain as a separate website. It won’t follow links from domain.com to second.domain.com. If the content you need is on another subdomain, include a direct link to it in the starting URL. The only exception is www. — the actor treats www.example.com and example.com as the same.
• JavaScript-rendered website: if the page loads content using JavaScript, the actor won’t see it — it doesn’t support JavaScript rendering at the moment.
• Blocked or missing links: if no internal links are found on the starting URL, the actor can’t proceed to other pages.
