What it costs
| Charged event | Price | When |
|---|---|---|
| Actor Start | $0.01 | Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). |
| Result | $0.05 – $0.04 | Single result in the default dataset. |
Per 1,000 rows, by Apify plan
| Plan | Per row | 1,000 rows | 10,000 rows |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0.05 | $50.01 | $500.01 |
| Bronze | $0.04 | $45.01 | $450.01 |
| Silver | $0.04 | $40.01 | $400.01 |
| Gold | $0.04 | $37.51 | $375.01 |
| Platinum | $0.04 | $37.51 | $375.01 |
| Diamond | $0.04 | $37.51 | $375.01 |
Every total includes the $0.01 start fee once. Apify charges that fee per gigabyte of memory, so a 512 MB run pays it a single time.
When not to use it
- Memory is capped at 1024 MB, so a very large job should be split into several narrower runs rather than scaled up.
- The dataset carries 67 fields and nothing else; if your analysis needs a field that is not in the table above, no input setting will add it.
- It reads what is public at run time. There is no archive behind it, so a question about last quarter has to be answered from data you already collected.
