How to use the TechLeads Official Technology Scraper on Apify

Short answer

Use the official Actor on Apify Store. You do not need a TechLeads tl_* API key. Paste up to 1,000 domains, run, and export results. Pricing is $0.50 per 1,000 domain results (platform usage included on the Actor).

Steps

  1. Open the Actor page while signed into Apify.
  2. In Input, set domains to a list of root domains or URLs (max 1,000).
  3. Click Start (leave batch size / concurrency at defaults unless you need to tune them).
  4. Open the run Dataset and export CSV or JSON.

Optional: clone the example task for a ready-made input.

Input example

{
  "domains": ["shopify.com", "stripe.com"]
}

Output

One dataset item per domain:

  • domain, url, success
  • techs[] with name, optional tag, categories
  • scrapedAt
  • error when success is false

Pricing

1,000 domains$0.50
10,000 domains$5.00

Compared with typical BuiltWith paid plans often discussed around ~$295+/mo, TechLeads Growth at $79/mo (and Apify pay-per-result) is about 4× cheaper for many entry workflows. Confirm live prices on each vendor.

Standby HTTP endpoints

When Standby is enabled on the run:

  • GET /health
  • GET /lookup?domain=example.com
  • POST /lookup/batch with { "domains": [...] }
  • GET /openapi.json

Use your Apify API token — not a TechLeads key.

When to use the dashboard instead

Use techleads.fyi for technology search, large lead list exports, Alerts, and Domain Watch. Use Apify when you want batch technology lookup inside Apify pipelines.
