## 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`).

# README

## Temu Products Database (95K Products)

Search and filter **95,189 Temu US marketplace products** with rich filtering: keyword, category, price range, sales volume, rating, reviews. Sort by best-sellers, cheapest, highest rated.

> ⚠️ **This is a curated snapshot database, NOT real-time scraping.** Use it for market research, pricing analysis, product discovery, category mining, and competitor intel. For real-time price monitoring of a specific product, use a different tool.

### Why this database

- Temu's anti-bot makes real-time scraping unreliable for most use cases
- 95K products gives statistically meaningful market data across 21 categories
- Snapshot includes sales volume, ratings, review counts — actual best-seller signals
- Pure data lookup, no proxies — fast, deterministic, no upstream blocks

### What's inside

- **95,189 products** across **21 categories** (Beauty, Home & Kitchen, Electronics, Toys, etc.)
- **189 sub-categories**
- Price range: $0.13 - $565.98 (avg $6.62)
- Sales: 1 - 39,011 units (best-sellers identified via salesVolume)
- Rating: 1.0 - 5.0 stars

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `keyword` | String | Substring match in title (case-insensitive). Example: `led lights`, `wireless earbuds`. |
| `l1Category` | String | Level 1 category exact match. See full list below. |
| `l2Category` | String | Level 2 sub-category exact match. |
| `priceMin` | Number | Minimum USD price. |
| `priceMax` | Number | Maximum USD price. |
| `minSoldCount` | Number | Only return products with this many sales or more. Try `1000` for best-sellers. |
| `minRating` | Number | Min rating (0-5). |
| `minReviews` | Number | Min review count. |
| `sortBy` | Select | `sales_desc` (default), `sales_asc`, `price_asc`, `price_desc`, `rating_desc`, `reviews_desc`. |
| `maxResults` | Integer | Cap on returned rows. Default 100, max 10000. |

- US marketplace only.

## MCP server setup

```json

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).
