Apify Public Scraper
These are our own copy tools, published on Apify. A copy tool is a small robot that reads a website and saves the useful bits in a file. There are 250+ of them, and more than 10,000 people have run them. Both counts keep updating. Online products, AI tools, and research teams use the files.
apify.com/kawsar ↗- Customer: Online products, AI tools, and research teams that need a file from a website.
- Problem: Reading a site by hand does not turn into a file someone else can run.
- Solution: 250+ public copy tools on the Apify marketplace. Each one reads a site and saves the useful bits.
- Outcome: More than 10,000 people have run them, and more than 99% of runs succeeded. The counts keep updating.
- Strategic win: The marketplace profile keeps growing. A new user does not need a private install.
The data is on the website. It is not in a file.
Teams we talk to can see the listings, the reviews, or the job posts. They cannot take them with them. Building a separate robot for every site, then keeping it alive, is the whole job.
Why it was hard
A useful website rarely hands you the spreadsheet. Prices, agents, reviews, and job posts sit on pages that change. Copying them by hand does not last, and a one-off program breaks the week the site is redesigned.
- Each website needs its own robot, and most of them do not offer a download
- A robot that worked in March can fail in April when the page layout moves
- The result has to be a tidy file, not a folder of saved pages
- Someone has to answer when a run fails, or people stop trusting it

Homes and rentals
The Zoopla tool takes a UK search link or a place name and returns prices, addresses, postcodes, beds, baths, the agent, and photos. Sale and rent both work. Apartments.com does the same kind of job for a US city or neighborhood: rent, floor plans, what the building offers, and who to contact.
Open the Zoopla tool →Leads and reviews
The Better Business Bureau tool pulls listings, ratings, contact details, and complaint records. DesignRush returns agencies with services and pricing. The Knot returns wedding vendors. Sam's Club reviews and SoftwareAdvice reviews are there when the job is how people feel, not a phone number.
Open the BBB tool →Research and lookups
Google Scholar collects paper titles, authors, how often a paper is cited, and PDF links. Bing returns normal results and ads for a keyword. Capterra builds a software comparison list from a category page. There is also a check for a name across 80+ website endings, and a US ZIP code tool with 41,000+ codes.
Open the Scholar tool →They run on Apify. Nobody has to keep the robot on their own computer.
Pick a copy tool, give it a search or a keyword, and take the file. These are our own tools. Online products, AI tools, and research teams run them. The public count is 250+ tools and 10,000+ people, and both keep updating.
