Bottom Line
Catalog updated: August 2026
Apify and Gumloop both compete in Automation, overlapping most directly on automation. Apify runs on a freemium model while Gumloop runs on a paid-only plan, which alone may settle it if budget or a free tier is a hard requirement.
Choose Apify if…
Best for teams that need to extract data from websites at scale without building and maintaining scrapers in-house, and its edge is a marketplace of 1,000+ pre-built scrapers covering common targets like Amazon listings and LinkedIn data. The most complete scraping infrastructure available, costs add up fast at high usage volume. Lean toward Gumloop instead if a "company brain" that gives agents shared access to team knowledge and live tool data, plus built-in evals so agents improve without manual tuning matters more for your use case.
Choose Gumloop if…
Best for teams that want non-developers building AI agents against real company data and tools, not just simple app-to-app automations, and its edge is a "company brain" that gives agents shared access to team knowledge and live tool data, plus built-in evals so agents improve without manual tuning. A credible agent-building step up from simple workflow automation, for teams ready to move past basic Zapier-style triggers. Lean toward Apify instead if a marketplace of 1,000+ pre-built scrapers covering common targets like Amazon listings and LinkedIn data matters more for your use case.
