# Apify Documentation

> Apify is the largest marketplace of tools for AI. Thousands of ready-made Actors to automate your business. Get real-time web data, track competitors, generate leads, analyze sentiment, and orchestrate your apps. Actors are created by a global community of builders earning over $1M every month. Apify takes care of infrastructure, billing, and distribution.

The entire content of Apify documentation is available in a single Markdown file at https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt

For pricing details, see https://apify.com/pricing.md

For autonomous AI agents, the Apify Agent General Interface (AGI) at https://agi.apify.com is the entry point to use and pay for the Apify platform and Actors through agentic payment protocols like x402 or MPP, without account setup or ongoing billing.
