## Changelog

### 0.1.19 — 2026-09-20 — billing corrected + README made truthful

- **You will pay only for delivered company records.** The Actor now charges a `company-record` event per delivered company; rows that only report a failed lookup are pushed without a charge (`src/billing.js`; the delivered-record push goes through `pushRecord`, the two error-row pushes stay plain).
- **Timing:** from **6 October 2026** the pricing switches from the per-dataset-item event to `company-record` at the same price. Until then billing is exactly as before; the code detects the switch by itself.
- **README corrected.** It promised "empty/failed lookups never billed" — measured on 2026-09-20, a failed lookup wrote an error row **and** was charged one dataset-item event (run 4vMWebYVapTzMMIkI). Also removed: "formation / status monitoring", "a canonical registry record for KYB", "every row carries query" (no such field), `industry` called a NACE code (it is the source sector label), the source named as "public company web sources" (it is Owler), lookup "by registry ID" (input is name, domain or Owler URL), and a duplicated word ("a company company list").
- `upgradeForFullData` now carries the Actor URLs instead of brand names only.
- **Every code example in the README was broken.** The AI-agent, cURL, JavaScript and Python examples all used keys that do not exist in the input schema (`queries`, `maxResultsPerQuery`) with an `"undefined"` placeholder, and the input table listed three phantom fields (`queries`, `maxResultsPerQuery`, `includeRaw`). Rewritten against the real schema; the example input now matches the prefill exactly.
- `input_schema.json`: the `maxResults` description claimed "This Actor is free — you only pay Apify's standard platform usage (compute), not per result". It is pay-per-event and charges per row. Corrected.
- No output field added or removed.

### 0.1 — 2026-09-07

- **Enabled AI-agent payments (x402) + rebuilt the README to the full standard** (What-is / when, AI-agents + x402 agentic payments + MCP, Overview, Features, Use cases, Integration, FAQ, Troubleshooting, Support & contact).
