## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

### What is the Amazon Reviews Scraper?

The **Amazon Reviews Scraper** is an Apify actor that pulls every review from any Amazon product page (across 8 marketplaces) and ships back a clean JSON dataset with sentiment scores and pros/cons baked in. Drop in an ASIN or a product URL, choose how many reviews to fetch, and the actor returns each review with: full text, star rating, author name, verified-purchase flag, helpful votes, posting date — plus a sentiment score (positive/neutral/negative + confidence) and a list of pros and cons distilled from the text.

Built on AFINN-165 lexicon for sentiment, with negation handling. No external sentiment API call, no extra cost.

### Use cases

- **Product research before launch** — analyze 1,000 reviews of competitor products to find unmet needs.
- **Brand monitoring** — daily scrape of your own product reviews; alert on dropping sentiment.
- **Comparative analysis** — pros/cons of product A vs product B at a glance.
- **AI training data** — labeled review datasets for fine-tuning sentiment models.
- **Refund / quality issue detection** — surface negative reviews mentioning "broken", "defective", "doesn't work" early.
- **Affiliate content generation** — auto-generate "Pros and Cons" sections for affiliate review articles.

{
  "productUrl": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0EXAMPLE12",
