About Apify is a full-stack web scraping and automation platform helping anyone get value from the web.

Build once, publish to Store, and earn when others use it. Thousands of developers do this - Apify handles infrastructure, billing, and monthly payouts. Apify Store has ready-made Actors for scraping Amazon, Google Maps, social media, tracking prices, lead-gen, and more. Actors handle proxies, CAPTCHAs, JavaScript rendering, headless browsers, and scaling. Everything runs on Apify's cloud with 99.95% uptime. SOC2, GDPR, and CCPA compliant. Integrate with Zapier, Make, n8n, and LangChain. Apify's MCP server lets AI like Claude dynamically discover and use Actors

Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros In the first three years, I have been using the Basic plan for $99.99 per year. However, I have exceeded my monthly request limit, and my current subscription plan does not allow any further API requests for this period. This is ok for my business and I am happy with this. - Ease of use - Documentation is okay - Setup was okay - Pricing at beginning was okay, but it increased by 50% without warning. Cons Starting September 2023, the service provider will charge extra fees if my request exceeds the limit of my subscription plan. However, I recently received a notification from their system stating that I have already exceeded the monthly request limit allowed by my current subscription plan. - Very aggressive - Auto renew without warning - Threaten legal action with no leeway - Does not listen
