Input
| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| mode | string | Yes | browse | What to fetch. `browse` walks the BuiltIn company directory with the filters below. `search` looks companies up by name. `byCompany` fetches specific companies by name, slug or BuiltIn URL. |
| searchQueries | array | No | [] | Company names or partial names to search for, e.g. `stripe`, `openai`, `data dog`. Browse-only filters are ignored in search mode with a warning. Each query returns up to 50 matching companies before `maxItems` is applied. |
| companyUrls | array | No | [] | BuiltIn company URLs (e.g. `https://builtin.com/company/stripe`), slugs (`stripe`) or exact company names (`Stripe`). Names are resolved through BuiltIn's company search; only an exact slug or exact name match is accepted. Unresolved inputs are emitted as error rows with `input` and `error` fields. |
| startUrls | array | No | [] | Optional BuiltIn URLs to process instead of the mode routes. Accepts requestListSources shapes: plain strings or objects with a `url` field, e.g. `{ "url": "https://builtin.com/companies?city=Chicago" }`. Directory URLs (`/companies...`) are paginated and results are deduplicated; company profile UR |
| locations | array | No | [] | Browse one or more US city/metro markets. BuiltIn does not OR repeated city parameters, so the actor requests each market separately and unions/deduplicates the results; records include `searchLocation` and `matchedLocations`. Accepts the same aliases as `location` (e.g. `chicago`, `austin`, `new-yo |
| location | string | No | – | US city or metro market to browse. Used only when `locations` is empty; browse mode only, while search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. `All US` searches every US market. Legacy values `national` and an empty value also mean all US. |
| industry | string | No | – | Filter companies by BuiltIn industry. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. |
| technology | string | No | – | Filter companies by a technology they publish on BuiltIn. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. |
| companySize | string | No | – | Filter companies by employee-count band. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. |
| officeType | string | No | – | Filter by work arrangement. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. `remote` means fully remote companies; `hybrid` and `on-site` match the company's published office model. Values such as `On-Site`, `On Site` and `onsite` are normalized to `OnSite`. Companies with no published |
Show the other 10 settings
| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| hiringOnly | boolean | No | false | Only return companies with at least one open job on BuiltIn. Companies without a published hiring signal are excluded when this filter is set. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. |
| remoteJobsOnly | boolean | No | false | Only return companies that currently list remote jobs on BuiltIn. Browse mode only; search/byCompany ignore it with a warning. |
| minEmployees | integer | No | – | Drop companies whose published employee count is below this value. Companies without a published count are kept. If `minEmployees` is greater than `maxEmployees`, the actor stops with a clear status message instead of returning bad data. |
| maxEmployees | integer | No | – | Drop companies whose published employee count is above this value. Companies without a published count are kept. If `minEmployees` is greater than `maxEmployees`, the actor stops with a clear status message instead of returning bad data. |
| includeDetails | boolean | No | true | Fetch each company's full BuiltIn record for its tech stack, offices, headquarters, founding year, website and benefits count. If a detail record is missing or has no tech stack, the actor falls back to the company profile page. Turn off for the fastest listing-only run. |
| includeProfile | boolean | No | false | Also read each company profile for recent jobs, typical on-site time and product/tech headcount. Adds one request per company. |
| includeJobCards | boolean | No | false | Read each company's public `/company/{slug}/jobs` page and attach up to 20 recent job cards (`jobCards`) with job ID, title, approximate posted age, location and workplace type. This is a recent-page sample, not the company's complete job board. Adds one request per company. |
| postedWithinDays | integer | No | – | Keep only recent job cards whose published relative age is within this many days. Ages are approximate (`postedAgeDaysApprox`); cards with no age or an open-ended age such as `30+ Days Ago` are excluded because freshness cannot be confirmed. Setting this enables `includeJobCards` automatically. |
| includeBenefits | boolean | No | false | Also read each company's benefits page and return the full list of published perks. Adds one request per company. |
| maxItems | integer | No | 100 | Hard cap on company records returned; the maximum remains 10,000 per run. Large runs with includeDetails on are slow because each company needs a detail request; use includeDetails false for bulk listing. For a directory larger than 10,000, run filtered shards (for example one market or industry per |

What a run costs
The result rate falls on higher Apify plans. Each figure is the published per-result rate times the number of results.
| Apify plan | Per 1,000 | 10,000 results | 100,000 results |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free plan | $0.99 | $9.90 | $99 |
| Starter plan | $0.82 | $8.20 | $82 |
| Scale plan | $0.66 | $6.60 | $66 |
| Business plan | $0.49 | $4.90 | $49 |
- Every run also has a start event, charged per GB of memory (minimum one): $0.10 on Free, $0.03 on Business. At its default memory of 1 GB a run starts at $0.10 on Free. Fewer, larger runs keep this small.
- The Free plan includes $5 of monthly usage (Apify pricing, checked 2026-11-11); at the Free rate that covers at most about 5,050 results, less start events and platform usage.
- Worked example: 10,000 results in one run on the Free plan cost $10 ($9.90 for results + $0.10 start), plus Apify platform usage (compute), billed separately by Apify.
- Pay per event. Platform usage (compute) is billed by Apify on top of the event prices. Compare other tools in the cost estimator.
