Build reliable web scrapers. Fast.
Apify is the platform where developers build, deploy, and monitor
web scraping and browser automation tools.
powering the world's top data-driven teams
Web scraping can be challenging
Headless browsers, infrastructure scaling, sophisticated blocking.
Meet the full-stack platform that makes it all easy.
STEP 1
Develop with open-source tools
Simplify scraping with
Crawlee
CrawleeGive your crawlers an unfair advantage with Crawlee, our popular library for building reliable scrapers in Node.js.
import { PuppeteerCrawler, Dataset } from 'crawlee';const crawler = new PuppeteerCrawler({async requestHandler({ request, page, enqueueLinks }) {await Dataset.pushData({url: request.url,title: await page.title(),});await enqueueLinks();},});await crawler.run(['https://crawlee.dev']);
Use your favourite libraries
Apify works great with both Python and JavaScript. Scrapy, Selenium, Playwright or Puppeteer. It's your choice.
Start with our code templatesfrom scrapy.spiders import CrawlSpider, Ruleclass Scraper(CrawlSpider):name = "scraper"start_urls = ["https://the-coolest-store.com/"]def parse_item(self, response):item = Item()item["price"] = response.css(".price_color::text").get()return item
STEP 2
Deploy to Apify
Turn your code into an Apify Actor
Actors are serverless microapps that are easy to develop, run, share, and integrate. The infra, proxies, and storages are ready to go.

Deploy to the cloud
No config required. Use a single CLI command or build directly from GitHub.
> apify pushInfo: Deploying actor 'computer-scraper' to Apify.Run: Updated version 0.0 for scraper actor.Run: Building actor scraperACTOR: Pushing Docker image to repository.ACTOR: Build finished.Actor build detail -> https://console.apify.com/actors#/builds/0.0.2Success: Actor was deployed to Apify cloud and built there.
STEP 3
Take your code for a run
Run your Actors
Start from Apify Console, CLI, via API, or schedule your actor to start at any time. It’s your call.

Never get blocked
Use our large pool of datacenter and residential proxies. Rely on smart IP address rotation with human-like browser fingerprints.

Monitor performance over time
Inspect all Actor runs, their logs, and runtime costs. Listen to events and get custom automated alerts.
