Product Description

Apify is a web scraping and automation platform and turn websites into an API.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Apify has a strong unique value proposition in both web scraping and automation, thanks to our powerful cloud-based platform.

Fast turnaround for complex projects
The combination of the flexibility of the Apify platform, the number of pre-existing actors in Apify Store, and our open-source tooling, enable Apify developers to deliver solutions for even more complicated projects to customers faster than our competitors.

Open-source tools mean no vendor lock-in
All our solutions are based on our open-source libraries and Apify SDK, which gives customers the peace of mind that they will not be vendor-locked, as they can always move their solutions outside of the Apify platform.
