Apify

All-hands with some grilling and chilling 🤌 Our last company-wide meeting was one of the biggest yet! We've grown quite a bit since our last all-hands, and our new joiners had the full "welcoming" experience - the classic bloody back ceremony and a BBQ organized by volunteers from all different departments 🍖 But in the end, the spirit of summer all-hands was the same - we hung out on our beautiful terrace, moved inside for refreshments, and caught up with our colleagues 🍻 If you also want your work meetings to look like this, please send us your CV! We're always looking for new talent to join the team 👇 🔗 https://apify.it/3SZzsQH

Not sure what Actor to bring to life on Apify? 🤔 Let our updated ideas page be your inspiration! 💡 Here's how it works: 1️⃣ User submits an idea for an Actor through our Ideas form. The submission should clearly state the input and output of the desired tool. 2️⃣ Our marketing team processes the idea within 30 days and adds it to the page. The default idea status is then set to Open to develop. 3️⃣ Anyone who likes the idea can upvote it, increasing its position, so a developer is more likely to notice it. 4️⃣ Developer decides to build an idea - there is no need to inform anyone about the project until the Actor is live on Apify Store. 5️⃣ We’ll process the request and tag the idea as Completed with a redirect to the new Actor. This backlink will give the developer SEO juice, helping them acquire new users by showing up on Google. See our updated filtration system, search, and design on the new ideas page 👇 🔗 https://apify.it/46KSkJ5
