💰 Pricing (Pay-per-event)

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.0001 per start, charged once per GB of run memory
Dataset result	$0.001 per launch row written

Memory: the default is 512 MB, which bills a single start event. This Actor is a lightweight HTTP client, so more memory only adds start events without speeding it up.

Example: 10 launches at default memory ≈ $0.0001 + 10 × $0.001 ≈ $0.0101.

⚙️ Memory limits

• Min: 256 MB
• Max: 1024 MB

---

Notes

• Without a phToken the Actor uses the public feed (limited fields).
• Respect Product Hunt’s terms of service and rate limits.
