Apify SDK for Python—The official library for building Apify Actors: serverless cloud programs for web scraping, browser automation, data processing, and AI agents. Manages the Actor lifecycle, storages (datasets, key-value stores, request queues), events, proxies, and pay-per-event monetization. Built on top of the the Apify API Client.

apify/apify-sdk-python holds a health index of 97 out of 100, placing it in the Exceptional band. It scores highest on Vitality (100/100) and lowest on AI Readiness (68/100). It was last updated 3 days ago. 2 contributors account for most of its recent work.
97
overall / 100
Exceptional
Software health index
Metrics are grouped into weighted categories on one standardized 1–100 scale. Overall starts as their weighted mean, calibrated against the distribution of the public record so bands carry percentile meaning; when public evidence triggers the High-Risk Jurisdiction Policy, the rating is adjusted and receives an At Risk ceiling of 34.
97
Exceptional93-100The record's top tier (≈ top 5%); essentially all checked criteria met
Excellent80-92Strong across the board; minor gaps
Good65-79Healthy; gaps are limited and manageable
Moderate50-64Acceptable with notable gaps; review recommended
Weak35-49Material weaknesses across several areas
At Risk20-34Significant weaknesses; adoption warrants caution
Critical1-19Severe problems (abandoned, single-maintainer, no hygiene)
Score profile
Each axis is a category. The shape matters more than the average — a healthy subject fills the whole shape, while a spike-and-crater profile means strength in one dimension is masking risk in another.
The weighted overall 85 is calibrated to 97 on the published index scale (record calibration 2026-08-02).

Excluded from scoring (no data or not applicable): No advisories left outstanding. Remaining weights renormalized. Matched the pypi:apify@4.0.2 runtime dependency closure — what installing the published package pulls in — 33 packages. Reachability is not analyzed.
How well is the repo equipped to be developed and maintained with AI coding agents? Carries a deliberately small weight (4%): agent tooling is a real maintenance signal, but a repository with none can still reach 100/100.

When each star and fork was added, collected from GitHub and bucketed by day. Cumulative growth sits directly above the daily additions it is made of, so the two read against each other: steady organic accretion looks nothing like an abrupt, short-lived burst. Where that difference is measurable, it is reported as growth authenticity.

Independent, tool-agnostic security assessment from the open-source OpenSSF Scorecard. Each check rewards a security practice, not a specific vendor's tool. Checks Scorecard could not determine are marked n/a and excluded from the security score (never counted as zero).Scorecard v5.5.0 · 2026-09-11 20:12 UTC
Full resolved dependency set from the GitHub dependency graph: 12 direct and 124 indirect (transitive) packages. The transitive closure is complete when the repository commits a lockfile.

Dependency advisories 0
Installing pypi:apify@4.0.2 pulls in 33 packages, direct and transitive: 0 carry known advisories, of which 0 are direct dependencies.
No known advisories affect the assessed dependencies.
An advisory means the version recorded in the dependency graph falls inside an advisory’s affected range. Reachability is not analysed, and the graph includes development and test pins — a finding may concern tooling rather than shipped software.
