# Data Tools: clean web data for developers and AI agents

Ready-to-run Python examples for pay-per-use [Apify](https://apify.com/fguiraud) Actors that turn **search trends, news, competitor ads, documents, websites, YouTube, TikTok and Instagram videos and audio** into clean JSON, Markdown, CSV and Excel.

🌐 Website: **https://fernandoguiraud16-coder.github.io/data-tools/**

Each example is a single short script plus a `sample-output.json` from a real cloud run, so you can see exactly what you get before running anything.

## Quick start

1. Create a free Apify account and copy your API token from **Console → Settings → API & Integrations**.
2. Install the client and set the token:

   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   export APIFY_TOKEN=your_token          # Windows PowerShell: $env:APIFY_TOKEN="your_token"
   ```

3. Run any example:

   ```bash
   python examples/google-trends/compare_terms.py "chatgpt, gemini, claude" --geo US
   ```

## Pricing

All Actors are **pay per result**: you pay a fraction of a cent per item (term, article, ad, document, domain, video or audio minute), and failed or empty items are not charged. Apify's free plan includes monthly credits, enough to try every example. Exact prices are on each Actor's page.

## Support
