# Apify MCP Server

A hosted Model Context Protocol server that lets AI agents run thousands of Apify scrapers, crawlers and automation tools to extract data from any website.

The Apify MCP Server, hosted at mcp.apify.com, gives AI agents access to thousands of ready-made scrapers, crawlers and automation tools from the Apify Store, so they can extract data from social media, search engines, maps, e-commerce sites and other websites. It supports OAuth, so clients such as Claude.ai or VS Code can connect using just the server URL.

Example uses include scraping Facebook posts, extracting contact details from Google Maps, retrieving Google search results, scraping Instagram content, and fetching or rendering arbitrary URLs as Markdown, plain text, HTML or links. The server supports agentic payments, letting an agent pay per Actor run through a token, direct x402 payments for Pay Per Event Actors, or Skyfire.

It communicates over Streamable HTTP (the earlier SSE transport has been removed) and is compatible with Claude Code, Claude.ai, Cursor, VS Code and any MCP-compliant client.
