Prompt to replace Apify

Prompt to replace Apify
Use looot to get the Google Maps places for the search I give you, then scrape each place's website to markdown and return name, address, phone and a one-line summary as a table. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.

Setup

One prompt, one price, one ledger

The same three steps every looot agent follows.

Questions about replacing Apify

Partly. An agent running looot can do some of what Apify does through catalog endpoints, and the page marks the jobs it cannot do.

looot has no monthly seat. You pay per call to the provider you pick, and the catalog shows each endpoint's price before you run it. Whether that comes out cheaper than Apify depends on your volume.

List prices change, so check Apify's own pricing page. This page does not repeat them. The looot side is read live from the catalog on the web version of this page.

An agent with a looot connection can call the providers behind Apify's data jobs directly. The providers used here are apify, jina, steel, context-dev, scrapegraphai, serper, searchapi-io, dataforseo, serpapi, scrapecreators, tikhub, brightdata.

Not covered: host your own scraper code, proxy pool and stored datasets. Keep Apify for those, or use another tool beside looot.

Paste the agent prompt on this page into your coding agent. It sets up looot, finds the endpoints for each job and runs them. You can edit the prompt to match your own inputs.

No. looot calls its own providers and does not connect to your Apify account. Your existing Apify data stays where it is.

Yes. looot can run an Apify Actor as a paid call from your looot balance. For common jobs such as Google results, Maps places or a page as markdown, your agent can call a provider built for that job instead of finding an Actor for it.

Try the Apify replacement with your own agent.

Start your workspace, top up, and paste the prompt into the agent you already use.
