Apify is a solid intuitive marketplace for APIs | TrustRadius

Overall Satisfaction with Apify

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I had never touched code before. I needed to build something fast to fix an internal problem with scraping data inside of our company. We used to do it by hand (downloading Instagram reels, transcribing them, sending them to GPT). But after I discovered Apify I found APIs inside to cover most of the uses I needed. It was truly useful and I would've taken ages to string together APIs from different sources so it also saved a lot of my time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Organizing APIs

Cons

Missing good transcription API for any type of file

Return on Investment

I took an hour/week/client to generate scripts, using Apify it went down to minutes

It is very intuitive. Enough that myself (a non-dev) was able to figure it out pretty quickly.

Alternatives Considered

Apify is more intuitive and has more options.
