Five social platforms, five actors, and 189 ready to run tasks published in one day

The drawing

The problem

Follower counts sit on five platforms, each with its own page shape and its own rules for automated reads. A list of domains doesn't say which account belongs to which company. Most tools return a number with no status, so a blocked page, a missing account, and the wrong account all look the same.

What we built

Five actors from one shared template. A domain goes in and one flat row comes out: the account found, the follower count, exact where the platform shows it, and a status field that keeps blocked, not found, not extractable, and identity mismatch apart. Each actor charges per event: company checked, profile resolved, and follower count extracted. Before publish, each ran once on the platform and its row was checked against its own dataset schema.

Each actor also has its own MCP server on npm with one read only tool. We drove each server as a real MCP client against the live actor, checked its inputs against the actor's own input schema, and proved that check can fail before trusting a pass. Each server passes the actor's own memory setting, so a caller pays one start event per run.

What it produced

• 5 of 5 actors public on the Apify Store on August 22, 2026, with live pricing read back at 0 drift.
• 189 of 189 task pages verified through the API, and 15 of 15 sampled public pages matched their titles.
• First platform runs: 1,103,541 exact LinkedIn followers for one public brand and 7,471 exact Pinterest followers for another.
• 5 of 5 MCP servers installed from npm into a clean directory and listed their tool.

Your scenario

Run TikTok Brand Presence Mapper or LinkedIn Company Page Mapper on Apify against ten domains you know, and read the status column before the counts. If you collect from social pages with your own scripts, residential proxy networks such as Bright Data and ThorData serve pages that refuse datacenter traffic. Send us the platforms you track and we'll tell you which actor covers each one.
