Apify platform

Copy for LLM

Apify is a cloud platform and marketplace for web scraping and automation tools.

Actors are serverless cloud programs running on the Apify platform. They can perform simple actions like filling out web forms or sending emails, or complex operations like crawling millions of web pages or transforming large datasets. Actors can be started manually, via API, or on a schedule, and integrate easily with other applications.
