Octoparse vs. Apify

Octoparse is an AI web scraping tool with hundreds of ready-to-use online scraper templates. We understand how difficult it is to write a script for every website, let alone the headache of constant maintenance. Our custom scraper builder allows users to build a scraping workflow with AI auto detection and manual point and click. For fast results, we have built over 600 templates for every popular website in the world. These templates are designed for plug-and-play without spending too much time on setting up.

Apify is the largest marketplace of tools for AI. At its core is Apify Store, a marketplace where builders create, publish, and monetize tools called Actors. Actors are serverless cloud programs that get web data and automate tasks on the web. Builders create them with JavaScript or Python. Build an Actor once and publish it to Apify Store. Thousands of builders already have. Earn when others use it - Apify handles all the infrastructure, billing, and monthly payouts. For everyone else, Apify means never building from scratch.
