Free plan limit: Free-plan users can receive up to 5 result records per run. Paid-plan and local/unknown runs retain the Actor's existing limits.
Scrape public Techmeme pages into structured technology news stories for monitoring, daily briefings, trend analysis, and research workflows.
Extracted fields
storyId, section, title, sourceName, sourceUrl, articleUrl, summary, imageUrl, relatedLinks, sourcePageUrl, and scrapedAt.
Each dataset item represents one Techmeme story cluster. Publisher names and URLs come from the primary citation; related links are grouped as Techmeme exposes them, such as More, X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, and Forums.
Input
The Actor accepts public Techmeme URLs such as the homepage or /river. Set maxResults from 1 to 200 and disable includeRelatedLinks when you only need primary story fields. It does not scrape article bodies or bypass paywalls.
Pricing
This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. These are the current Apify Store event prices:
| Event | Price (USD) | When it is charged |
|---|---|---|
apify-default-dataset-item | $0.001 | Techmeme story — One schema-valid Techmeme story written to the default dataset. |
apify-actor-start | $0.00005 | Actor Start — Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). — Charged once per run. |
Apify platform usage for this Actor run is included alongside the event prices above; no separate per-run platform-usage fee is passed to users.
This covers Apify platform usage for this Actor run. Other Apify products or usage outside this Actor run may still follow your account plan.
Output
Each dataset row represents a story cluster, not a full article. A page with no parseable clusters produces an empty dataset and a SUMMARY diagnostic rather than fabricated records. Techmeme's public HTML and terms of use control whether and how the data may be reused; respect publisher rights and rate limits.
