Google's Custom Search API shuts down for existing users on Jan 1, 2027. Apify Web Search replaces it: same query-in, JSON-out pattern, core parameters map directly. Migrating takes a few lines of code, not a rewrite. Full guide in thread ↓

That’s a wrap on Run by Apify 📷 We spent a full day in SF on agents in production, from payments and governance to web data and taste. Thanks to our speakers, our sponsors, and everyone who joined us, from yesterday’s 5K to tonight’s party. Everything runs on Apify.

Let your agent find the right tool for the job. @DataChaz shows the agent picking and running Actors through Apify MCP. Thousands of tools, and it loads only what it needs 👇
YOUR AI AGENT SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND ITS OWN TOOLS Want it to gather useful data for your next project? > restaurants with ratings and opening hours > product prices from Amazon > fresh content from the web Getting that data usually means finding the right integration, understanding its inputs and connecting it to your workflow. @Apify's MCP server lets your agent handle the tool discovery 💥 ONE connection gives it access to a marketplace of thousands of ready-to-run tools. You just describe the job in plain English. The agent can then find a suitable tool, configure it, run it and retrieve structured results 🙌 You don't have to know the tool's name before you ask. There's a smart detail here, too! tools are discovered on demand, so the entire catalog doesn't need to be loaded into context upfront. A broad toolbox with a small starting footprint. here's how the pieces fit together 🧵↓

Run by Apify is underway in San Francisco 🏃 @jancurn, Lauren Dai from @stripe, and @0xLukasB are kicking things off with how agents have gone from clicking through UIs to working on their own. Today's all about making that work at scale.

Preparations for Run are in full swing! 🔥 The Apify team is cooking, and we have a feeling this is going to be something special. We knew The Pearl was beautiful, but seeing it in person takes it to another level. Come join us tomorrow!

A niche directory that never needs manual updates. @Fluyeporlaweb turned fuel prices for 11,000+ Spanish stations into an API with his Apify Actor, then built a map on top that refreshes every 3 hours. Swap in your own dataset and you’ve got the same thing in your niche 👇
Estoy viciadísimo a los Actors de Apify y ahora veo ideas por todos lados El otro día hablando con mi tía que dirige una pequeña red de gasolineras me puse a investigar y he creado una API con los precios diarios de 11k de todo el país. Luego me calenté y cree un directorio SEO que se actualiza solo cada 3 horas tirando de mi Actor de Apify. Con su mapa, opción "cerca de mi", como llegar y toda la movida... quizás lo acabe convirtiendo en una app para probar. echadle un ojo crítico a ver que os parece, si veo que el proyecto tira iré poniendo actualizaciones en el Telegram os dejo abajo los links

Lisbon promised sunshine. Tech Run delivered a wet start line. Apify's Matous slid his way into fourth, which we are taking as a good omen. @WebSummit floor opens Tuesday. Pavilion 3, stand E346. Pastéis de nata on us.

Every agent needs proper tools. One Apify API key gives yours thousands of Actors in Apify Store, and it picks the right one for the job. @G2dotcom ranked Apify #1 in API Marketplace this fall and named it an emerging AI tool to watch in 2027 🏆 Link in 🧵

Black Friday is three weeks away. We asked Claude to find 100 office chairs across 5 stores. On its own: 0 of 100. With Apify MCP: 100 of 100, in about 3 minutes. Full breakdown in the thread ↓

This week, the Community Spotlight shines on Muhamed Didović, an independent developer who went full-time on Apify this year. His rule is user first, code second. The Actors he is proudest of solve one concrete problem in a simple, reliable way 👇

One step worth copying from this stack: @gregisenberg has Apify pull @G2dotcom, Reddit, and App Store reviews, then asks the agent to “find the 10 complaints that show up most and quote the users.” A product roadmap your customers already wrote 👇
running a company nowadays feels kinda dystopian my team is 50+ people in 12 countries, but i talk to my agents more than my human teammates - voice note to grokbot - mattpocock/skills /grill-me so the agent interrogates the idea before anything gets built - spec drops into linear through the linear mcp - exa + firecrawl agent reads every competitor site, pricing page and changelog - ideabrowser.com to find ideas and trends - apify pulls g2, reddit and app store reviews - prompt: "find the 10 complaints that show up most and quote the users" - context7 so the agent reads the latest docs before it touches any api the design - claude code + paper mcp - 4 versions of every screen before a single line of code - pick pieces from 2, it merges them. diverge then converge - frontend-design skill from anthropic/skills + our own design system skill - cleanshot screenshots of any ui i like go straight in with "make it feel like this" the build - pingdotgg/t3code as the control surface for every agent, from my phone too - stablyai/orca runs a fleet of agents in parallel, each in its own git worktree - graphify maps the whole codebase into a knowledge graph so agents navigate instead of guess - headroom compresses tool outputs before they hit the model, so tokens go 20-95% further - lsp plugins so the agent sees types and errors like an ide does - security guidance hook flags risky edits before they land - supabase mcp for the database, stripe for billing - github mcp opens the pr, vercel spins up a preview - loops run overnight, i check what shipped over coffee the user testing - lightpanda as the headless browser, way lighter than chromium so you can run hundreds at once - agents click every flow on the preview like a first-time user - one persona is impatient, one is confused, one is on a phone - playwright + chrome devtools mcp for regression tests the bugs - sentry mcp catches the error - agent reads the stack trace and opens a fix pr in under 10 minutes - human just approves the data - posthog mcp cron at 7am on yesterday's funnel - any step that drops more than 10%, the agent watches 20 session replays and tells me why - stripe mcp pulls every cancellation reason into one doc every monday the agents' tools - orgo so every agent gets its own computer - agentmail so every agent gets its own inbox - agentphone so i can call them from the car - composio connect-apps for every other connector - akitaonrails/ai-memory, a git-backed markdown wiki so they remember what we decided last week the skills - wshobson/agents so skills work across claude code, codex and opencode - my writing voice - our design system - how we write specs - skill creator so the agents write new skills themselves some helpful tricks - one agent per platform. the x agent never touches email - cheap model for triage, opus for anything that ships - every output gets scored 1-10 by an llm judge. under 8 goes back - every agent writes a 5-line log at night so i can read the whole company in 2 minutes - every agent mistake becomes a new skill, so it only happens once the team - humans get version 5, not my voice note which they are happy about lol - their job is creative feedback, relationships and telling the agents what they got wrong a human pm reviews the funnel once a week. this reviews it every morning running a company is now voice notes and inference

Your Actor stops at a dataset nobody opens. MCP connectors let it deliver results directly to Slack, Notion, or Sheets mid-run - through a credential the Actor never holds. Build log from a live pay-per-result Actor in the 🧵
