Open-source AI automation that unifies agents, flows and 770+ app integrations
Describe a task in everyday words and the agent determines the steps, chooses tools from your connected apps and MCP servers, and pauses for approval on sensitive actions.
Build automations on a canvas with branching, retries, waitpoints, subflows and error handling, then write inline TypeScript for the steps that need real code.
Every piece is MIT-licensed and community-built, covering the apps you already run, with an HTTP piece for any REST or GraphQL endpoint with auth and pagination handled.
Draft flows by chatting, store structured data in Tables that flows and agents can read and write, and keep internal documents searchable by every agent.

Run thousands of ready-made web scrapers and AI agents from one cloud platform
Over one hundred thousand ready-to-run scrapers and automation tools covering social media, maps, e-commerce, real estate, and general web crawling.
Connect Apify Actors directly to AI assistants and agents so they can search the store, run scrapers, and pull structured results as tool calls.
Managed proxy rotation and unblocking are built into the platform, so scrapers keep working when target sites add defenses.
An open-source crawling library plus Python and JavaScript SDKs for building custom Actors with Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, or Cheerio.
