Case Study: Apify unlocks 15% more Actor Runs with Recombee

Apify boosts Actor Runs by 15% with Recombee

Apify, a company building the world's largest marketplace of AI tools known as Actors, faced a significant challenge as its catalog grew to tens of thousands of items. Their discovery experience relied on basic keyword search, which made it difficult for users to find the most relevant tools and limited personalization. They needed a scalable solution to improve search and introduce recommendations without a heavy engineering burden, turning to the vendor Recombee for its recommendation engine.

Recombee implemented its personalized search and recommendation platform across Apify's marketplace. The solution used behavioral signals and real-time interactions to tailor search results and suggest relevant Actors on pages like the homepage and individual tool listings. This partnership with Recombee yielded substantial results, including a 15% increase in Actor runs by existing users, a 9% higher click-through rate on the top search results, and a 6% uplift in subscriptions from new users.
