Apify
Apify offers a comprehensive platform for web scraping, browser automation, and data extraction at scale. The platform combines managed cloud infrastructure with a marketplace of over 10,000 ready-to-use automation tools called Actors, making it suitable for both developers building custom solutions and business users seeking turnkey data collection.
Actors are serverless cloud programs that handle the technical complexities of modern web scraping: proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, JavaScript rendering, and headless browser management. Users can deploy pre-built Actors for popular use cases like scraping Amazon product data, extracting Google Maps listings, collecting social media content, or monitoring competitor pricing. For specialized needs, developers can build custom Actors using JavaScript, Python, or Crawlee, Apify's open-source web crawling library.
The platform operates a developer marketplace where programmers publish and monetize their automation tools. Apify manages infrastructure, usage tracking, and monthly payouts, creating a revenue stream for thousands of active contributors.
Enterprise features include 99.95% uptime SLA, SOC2 Type II certification, and full GDPR and CCPA compliance. The platform integrates with workflow automation tools like Zapier, Make, and n8n, supports LangChain for AI applications, and provides an MCP server that allows AI assistants to dynamically discover and execute Actors.
