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.
The managed vector database and knowledge engine for production AI
Store and query vector embeddings with automatic indexing that requires no manual tuning or algorithm selection.
Writes are acknowledged in under 100ms and become searchable within seconds, while all data is searched in parallel so speed holds at scale.
Connect agents to Pinecone through plugins for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Gemini CLI, MCP, or a direct REST API with one key.
Serve compiled, governed enterprise knowledge to agents through a single query, cutting token usage and latency versus multi-step RAG loops.
