Compare Apify vs. PYPROXY

Apify provides the infrastructure developers need to build, deploy, and monetize web automation tools. The platform centers on Apify Store, a marketplace featuring 10,000+ community-built Actors. These are serverless programs that scrape websites, automate browser tasks, and power AI agents. Developers create Actors using JavaScript, Python, or Crawlee (Apify's open-source crawling library), then publish them to the Store. When other users run your Actor, you earn money. Apify manages the infrastructure, handles payments, and processes monthly payouts to thousands of active developers. Apify Store offers ready-to-use solutions for common use cases: extracting data from Amazon, Google Maps, and social platforms; monitoring prices; generating leads; and much more. Under the hood, Actors automatically manage proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, JavaScript-heavy pages, and headless browser orchestration. The platform scales on demand with 99.95% uptime and maintains SOC2, GDPR, and CCPA compliance. For workflow automation, Apify connects to Zapier, Make, n8n, and LangChain. The platform also offers an MCP server, enabling AI assistants like Claude to discover and invoke Actors programmatically.

The market-leading proxy solution offers tens to millions of IP resources. The commercial residential and ISP proxy network has 90M+ IPs. Access to residential addresses is restricted to high-performance servers only. Abundant bandwidth support business demands. Real-time speeds can reach 1M-5M/s. 99 percent success rate guarantees data collection activities. The number of proxies can be used and invoked at different frequencies. You can create a lot of proxy servers at once. Provide various API parameter configurations. It is easy and quick to generate proxy using username and password authentication. You are protected from any prying eyes and your privacy is assured. Your network environment will not be accessed at any time. Access to high-performance servers requires access at real residential addresses. This allows for normal connection of the proxy. Unlimited concurrency lowers business costs.
