💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$5e-05	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
Tool call (tool-call)	$0.02	Per-tool invocation via MCP Standby

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 × $0.02 = $2.00 plus the start fee.

How NexGenData Pricing Works

Every NexGenData actor uses pay-per-event pricing — you only pay for results that land in your dataset or per MCP tool call. No monthly minimum, no seat fees.

• Actor Start: a single-event charge each time the actor spins up.
• Tool call: charged per MCP tool call.
• No charge for retries or internal proxy rotation — absorbed by the platform.
