Overview

What is Apify?

Apify is a full-stack platform for web scraping and data extraction. Teams use it to automate repetitive browser tasks and collect structured web data. It supports custom code as well as thousands of pre-built scraping tools.

Apify lets users build, schedule, and deploy web scrapers called Actors. These Actors can crawl websites, extract data, and automate browser workflows. The platform supports popular automation libraries like Puppeteer and Playwright. Extracted data can be exported in formats such as JSON, CSV, or XML. Users can integrate outputs directly with other tools through webhooks and APIs. A marketplace offers over six thousand ready-made Actors for common sources like Google Maps and social platforms.
