Apify

Run a scheduled AI agent on your Apify — unattended.

Data ExtractionAPI key

Automate Apify with a scheduled AI agent that runs the ready-made scrapers and crawlers in the Apify Store for you — pulling data from search engines, maps, social media, e-commerce, or any website. Instead of kicking off an Actor and sifting the raw dataset by hand, the agent runs Apify on a schedule, reads the results, and turns them into the digest, comparison, or list you actually want. It handles the recurring, judgment-shaped part: deciding what changed, what's worth flagging, and how to summarize it.

What you can automate

  • Daily scrape digest: Run a scraper (jobs, listings, prices, reviews) each morning and email a summary of what's new.
  • Competitor monitor: Crawl competitor pages or search results on a cadence and flag what changed.
  • Lead list builder: Scrape a directory or map search weekly and compile a structured contact list.
  • Review & mention tracker: Pull fresh reviews or social mentions and roll them into one digest.
  • Price & availability watch: Re-run a product or listings scraper on a schedule and report price drops, new arrivals, or out-of-stock changes.

Connecting

Go to the Connections page and paste an Apify API token (create one in the API & Integrations section of Apify Console). The agent can then search the Apify Store, run Actors, and read their dataset results. Apify's hosted MCP also supports OAuth; a token is the quickest path. Actor runs consume your own Apify plan's usage.

Routine templates using Apify

Frequently asked questions

Can a scheduled AI agent run Apify scrapers for me?

Yes. Attach your Apify connection to a routine and the agent can search the Apify Store, run an Actor with your inputs, and read its dataset results on the cadence you set.

Can Clourou email me the data an Apify scraper extracts?

Yes. A routine can run an Actor, summarize or format the dataset, and deliver the results by email if you opt into delivery. The full run is also saved in-app.

What access does Clourou need to my Apify account?

You paste an Apify API token from the Apify Console, which the agent uses to run Actors and read datasets. Actor runs consume your own Apify plan's usage.

Does it run on a schedule without me starting it?

Yes. You set a cadence (for example each morning or weekly) and the agent runs the scraper and processes the results on its own, unattended.

Can the agent handle Actors that need a login or solve captchas?

Only within what the Actor itself supports. The agent runs the Actor and passes inputs, but it does not add anti-bot handling an Actor doesn't already provide, so run reliability follows the Actor's own limits.
