Introduction to Apify Adviser

Apify Adviser is designed to assist users in extracting data from websites and solving web automation problems. It leverages Apify's extensive library of ready-made Actors—serverless cloud programs that run on the Apify platform—to offer solutions for various web scraping and automation tasks. For example, if a user wants to extract product data from an e-commerce site like Amazon, Apify Adviser can recommend a suitable Actor, such as the [Amazon Crawler](https://apify.com/junglee/Amazon-crawler). The platform also supports custom solutions using the Crawlee library for Node.js or Scrapy for Python.
