Apify runs Actor scripts your team picks, configures, and keeps alive. With Browse AI, you train an agent once and the data keeps flowing.
An Actor requests the page and parses the markup that comes back. When any change to the website is made it breaks, and depends on whoever maintains it to fix it.
The agent opens a real browser and clicks, scrolls, and interacts like a visitor. It adapts to most layout changes on its own, and flags the rare redesign that needs you.

We talk to teams looking for alternatives to Apify Actors every week. Here are the top things they love when switching to Browse AI.
Train an agent to extract and structure your dataset by pointing and clicking. No Actors to shortlist, no parameters to read up on, no code to write or maintain.
Every agent can run on a schedule alerting you to changes and instantly creating a historical database.
You design the data schema once and agents fill it on every run. Calculated columns and automated post-processing cleans and structures the data instantly.
Your agent manages retries, IP rotation, and error handling automatically so you can scale your data pipeline with confidence.
Both platforms extract data from websites, but how they get it is different. With Browse AI, you train an AI agent to extract the web data you want, while with Apify, you run Actor scripts from the marketplace, or write your own, and maintain them as sites change.
No Actor to evaluate, no parameters to read up on, no JavaScript, Python or TypeScript. Direct the agent to the URL and set your data schema.
Train your first agent for free1. Paste a URL
One page is all the setup needs.
2. Set your schema
Create your custom data schema and structure.
3. Scale your database
Add workflows, bulk extractions, integrations and more.
Train your agent, pick a schedule, and it automatically checks for changes, alerts you, and builds a historical database as it goes.
You can monitor any type of data on a page for changes as well as monitor screenshots for design changes.
How monitoring works →Browse AI task view. Example listing data.
Supported captchas (reCAPTCHA and hCaptcha) solved automatically, with rate limiting, IP rotation and retries built in.
No memory to allocate, no concurrency to size, no proxy pools to manage.
AI agent that adapts to most layout changes automatically and alerts you if a major redesign requires a retrain.
Agents can browse from the locations you choose, so you see the local prices, listings, and search results your market sees.
Hand one trained agent a list of up to 500,000 URLs and it will give you a structured dataset based on the schema you provided.
Extract data behind a login, capture screenshots, crawl across multiple pages, all with zero coding.
Browse AI offers plans with monthly or annual credit allowances so you can effectively forecast your costs. The higher your credit allowance the lower your cost per credit, meaning that you save as you scale.
One credit system across every website with plans that include a monthly or annual credit allowance.
Costs fluctuate based on processing time and memory per run, and many marketplace Actors add a per-result fee on top.
If you're not keen on rebuilding, we've got you covered. Tell us which sites you're extracting today and our team maps each Actor to a Browse AI agent.
The sites you extract, the fields you need, and how often you run.
Including anything behind a login, a captcha or advanced bot protection.
Self-serve if that covers it, fully managed if you'd rather we ran it.

Our team designs, builds and maintains the whole pipeline. You receive clean data on your schedule. Most teams are live within one to two weeks, and managed contracts include quality and delivery SLAs at 98% data accuracy.
Migrating from Apify usually takes hours, not weeks. Support can help you rebuild your Actors as agents.
Yes. Agents browse in a real browser session, so JavaScript rendering, dynamic content and bot detection are handled without configuring Puppeteer or Playwright.
Browse AI adapts to most changes automatically. When a major redesign needs attention you're alerted right away, and on managed plans our team handles it. On Apify, the affected Actor waits for an update from its developer, or from you.
You show Browse AI what you want by clicking on it, on any website. No searching thousands of Actors hoping one fits.
For what they no longer build: retry logic, error handling, proxy management, change detection and maintenance. The REST API and webhooks still give full programmatic control.
Supported captchas including reCAPTCHA and hCaptcha are solved automatically. Custom captchas and some advanced bot protection may be out of reach on self-serve plans, so book a call and we will test your specific site.
Yes, and most customers finish in hours. Support can help you recreate your Apify workflows as Browse AI agents.
One trained agent can take a list of up to 500,000 URLs in a single bulk run, and workflows chain agents to cover entire sites. Retries, IP rotation and infrastructure scale automatically, and the credit system keeps costs predictable as volume grows. On Apify, performance and cost at scale depend on the efficiency of each Actor you use.
Yes. Browse AI plans include a set credit allowance, and the same extraction costs the same credits each time, so your monthly bill is easy to plan. Apify charges compute units that vary with each Actor's run, and many Actors add per-result fees, which makes costs harder to predict as volume grows.
