About Apify is a full-stack web scraping and automation platform helping anyone get value from the web. At its core is Apify Store, a marketplace with over 10,000 Actors where developers build, publish, and monetize automation tools.

Apify Store has ready-made Actors for scraping Amazon, Google Maps, social media, tracking prices, lead-gen, and more.

		Pros from Real Users Pros Super reliable and straightforward tool. Refined set of features and clear documentation. Our setup couldn't have been much faster and we've not had any issues with the tool in over a year! Our system was using a more expensive competing product, but Gaffa made the transition simple and seamless. We are primarily using it to print PDF reports from our site, but plan to expand its use to other parts of our product and processes. Very easy to get going! Really expressive API. Saved me a lot of time and allowed me to do just what I needed in terms of interacting with sites and getting data back in the right way. Also the dashboard where you can see your previous requests is really useful when debugging!
