🚀 What I'm Building

☁️ Crawlee Cloud

Self-hosted web scraping platform — Run Crawlee/Apify actors on your own infrastructure with full control.

🔒 Privacy-first — Your data stays on YOUR servers
💰 Cost-effective — No per-actor pricing
🐳 Docker-native — Deploy anywhere
🔧 SDK Compatible — Works with existing Crawlee/Apify actors

→ Star it on GitHub

🎯 Why I Built This

Working with enterprise clients, I kept hearing the same request: "We need self-hosting for compliance."

So I built Crawlee Cloud — a solution I can share across client projects and maintain as one codebase for everyone:

🏢 Enterprise-ready — Built for compliance & data residency
🔄 One codebase — Shared across projects, maintained centrally
💜 Open source — Community-driven, transparent

Complementing the Crawlee ecosystem. Building in public! 👇
