What is Awesome Agent APIs?
Building AI agents is hard — finding the right APIs to power them shouldn’t be. Awesome Agent APIs is an open-source, curated directory of 55,000+ APIs sourced from Apify’s marketplace and organized into 17 categories. Every API in the directory is a ready-to-run Apify Actor: a cloud-hosted unit of code you can call via HTTP, schedule, or integrate directly into your agent workflow. The directory exists because the Apify marketplace contains tens of thousands of tools, and there was no fast, developer-friendly way to discover the best ones for agent use cases. Awesome Agent APIs solves that by curating, categorizing, and ranking everything in one place.How it works
Python scraper fetches from Apify
A Python scraper queries Apify’s marketplace API daily, pulling metadata for every public Actor across all 17 categories — including name, description, rating, and review count.
APIs are ranked by Bayesian quality score
Each API is ranked using a Bayesian average that balances rating value against review volume. APIs with many high ratings surface first; single-review outliers don’t dominate. The formula weights the raw rating
R against the category average C using a confidence factor based on review count.The directory updates daily via GitHub Actions. You always see fresh data — ratings, descriptions, and rankings reflect the current state of Apify’s marketplace.
