Description

Apify provides the infrastructure developers need to build, deploy, and monetize web automation tools. The platform centers on Apify Store, a marketplace featuring 10,000+ community-built Actors. These are serverless programs that scrape websites, automate browser tasks, and power AI agents. Developers create Actors using JavaScript, Python, or Crawlee (Apify's open-source crawling library), then publish them to the Store. When other users run your Actor, you earn money. Apify manages the infrastructure, handles payments, and processes monthly payouts to thousands of active developers. Apify Store offers ready-to-use solutions for common use cases: extracting data from Amazon, Google Maps, and social platforms; monitoring prices; generating leads; and much more. Under the hood, Actors automatically manage proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, JavaScript-heavy pages, and headless browser orchestration. The platform scales on demand with 99.95% uptime and maintains SOC2, GDPR, and CCPA compliance. For workflow automation, Apify connects to Zapier, Make, n8n, and LangChain. The platform also offers an MCP server, enabling AI assistants like Claude to discover and invoke Actors programmatically.
