## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

### 💸 Pricing Model & Usage Logic

This actor uses a tiered pay-per-event pricing model, with usage tracked and charged based on the number of requests processed and additional multipliers. Charges are triggered at specific usage thresholds and events.

#### 🟢 Charge Events & Tiers

The actor uses a tiered pricing model based on the number of requests processed. Each tier has a specific charge event and rate per 1,000 requests:

> **🔻 Cost Efficiency as You Scale:**
> The tier-based pricing model is designed to reduce your cost per property as your usage increases. The more requests you process, the lower your per-unit cost becomes, helping keep your overall costs under control as you scale up to higher volumes.

##### Starter Tier (`starter-tier-1K`)

For the first 10,000 requests processed, the cost per 1,000 requests is **$2.5 USD**.
This tier is ideal for small to medium jobs and ensures a low entry cost for initial usage.

##### Growth Tier (`growth-tier-1K`)

For requests processed from 10,000 up to 20,000 the cost per 1,000 requests drops to **$2 USD**.
This tier rewards higher volume usage with a reduced rate, making it cost-effective for scaling up.

##### Scale Tier (`scale-tier-1K`)

For requests processed from 20,000 up to 50,000 the cost per 1,000 requests is **$1.5 USD**.
This tier is designed for large-scale operations, offering further discounts as your volume increases.

##### Enterprise Tier (`enterprise-tier-1K`)

For requests processed above 50,000 the cost per 1,000 requests is **$1 USD**.
This tier is for enterprise-level usage, providing the lowest rate for very high-volume processing.

Each charge event is triggered automatically as your processed property count crosses into the next tier. The actor tracks usage and applies the correct rate for each tier, ensuring transparent and predictable billing.

These pricing tiers are applied on a **monthly** basis, and your usage count resets at the start of each new month. This ensures you always start fresh and only pay for what you use each month.

##### Example:

- Scraping 100,000 requests in a month:
  - $2.5 per 1K requests for the first 10,000 requests ($25)
  - $2 per 1K requests upto 20,000 requests ($20)
  - $1.5 per 1K requests upto 50,000 requests ($45)
  - $1 per 1K requests above 100,000 requests ($50)
  - **Total:** $140

#### ⚡ Additional Usage Parameters (Multipliers)

The actor may apply additional usage multipliers based on your input settings. These do **not** directly charge you extra, but they affect how quickly you use up your monthly quota. The more features you enable, the faster your included usage is consumed.

- **🧠 Memory Usage:** If you run the actor with more than 128 MB of memory, you will be charged an additional usage multiplier. For example, running at 256 MB will double your usage cost.

> **💡 Tip:**
> For best cost efficiency, run this actor on **128 MB memory**. The actor is highly optimized for this setting, and using more memory will increase your additional usage charges. Only increase memory if you have a specific need.
