💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.005	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
FTC enforcement case record (apify-default-dataset-item)	$0.05	Per FTC consumer protection case / matter extracted

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.05 = $5.00 plus the start fee.

📊 What you get

Clean JSON, one record per case (13 fields):

• case_id — FTC matter number when published, otherwise the case slug
• matter_number — FTC matter number (e.g. "222 3135")
• title — Case title
• respondents — Parsed respondent / defendant names
• case_type — Antitrust · Data Security · Deceptive Advertising · Robocalls · Consumer Protection · Other
• status — Case status (e.g. Pending)
• date_filed — Last-updated date shown on the FTC listing (YYYY-MM-DD)
• summary_excerpt — Case summary excerpt
• monetary_relief_usd — First monetary figure found in the summary, in USD (null when none)
• consent_decree — True when settlement / consent-order language is present
• file_url / source_url — Canonical ftc.gov case page
• scraped_at — Fetch timestamp (UTC)

Pricing (Pay-Per-Event): $0.05 per case record returned — about 20 cases per $1 — plus $0.005 per Actor start event.

If the FTC listing answers and no case matches your filters, the run finishes with 0 rows and an explanatory status message, and no per-case charge is made. If ftc.gov is unreachable or returns a challenge page, the run fails loudly rather than returning an empty success.
