This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Competitive Pricing Monitor - SaaS & Ecommerce Plan Tracker

Monitor competitor SaaS and ecommerce pricing pages for plan changes, price increases/decreases, new/removed tiers, and packaging shifts. Returns one summary-first competitor digest row per monitored target.

### Store Quickstart

Run this actor with your target input. Results appear in the Apify Dataset and can be piped to webhooks for real-time delivery. Use `dryRun` to validate before committing to a schedule.

### Key Features

- 💹 **Real-time market signals** — Pulls current prices/rates from authoritative public APIs
- 📊 **Historical-ready output** — Timestamp every row for downstream time-series analysis
- 🌍 **Multi-asset support** — Handles dozens of symbols/pairs per run
- 📡 **Webhook alerts on threshold** — Push to Slack when prices cross user-defined bands
- 🔄 **Cron-friendly** — Idempotent runs with persistent state for scheduled monitoring

### Use Cases

| Who | Why |
|-----|-----|
| Developers | Automate recurring data fetches without building custom scrapers |
| Data teams | Pipe structured output into analytics warehouses |
| Ops teams | Monitor changes via webhook alerts |
| Product managers | Track competitor/market signals without engineering time |

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| competitors | array | prefilled | Each entry is one competitor. Provide pricing page URLs, optional include/exclude patterns, and a stable id. One summary |
| requestTimeoutSeconds | integer | `30` | HTTP request timeout per pricing page fetch. |
| userAgent | string | — | Optional User-Agent header used for pricing page requests. |
| maxChars | integer | `40000` | Upper bound for extracted text per pricing page. Increase for long pricing pages with many plans. |
| delivery | string | `"dataset"` | dataset: write competitor rows to Apify dataset (recommended for starters). webhook: POST JSON payload to webhookUrl. em |
| datasetMode | string | `"changes_only"` | changes_only: only competitors with detected changes. all: all competitors regardless of change status. action_needed: o |
| webhookUrl | string | — | Required when delivery is webhook. |
| notifyOnNoChange | boolean | `false` | When false, webhook delivery is skipped if no competitors changed. Reduces noise. |

### Tips & Limitations

- Use Apify Schedules to run this every N minutes and build your own historical dataset.
- Threshold alerts work best with webhook delivery — pipe into PagerDuty/Slack for ops visibility.
- For trading applications, note that public APIs have 5–15 minute lag. Don't use for HFT.
- Combine with `weather-forecast-fetcher` or `sec-edgar-filings-monitor` for cross-signal strategies.
- Source APIs are free — this actor has no subscription cost beyond Apify compute.

### FAQ

**What's the data source?**

Authoritative public APIs (e.g., ECB, Federal Reserve, SEC EDGAR, exchange official APIs). See actor-specific docs for the full list.

**How do I backtest historical data?**

Schedule this actor daily and accumulate Apify Dataset rows — you build your own history over time.

**Are there rate limits?**

Source APIs rate-limit at their level. This actor respects those with built-in backoff.

**How fresh is the data?**

Typically 1–15 minutes behind real-time, depending on the source API. Check each actor's `meta.dataAge` field.

**Can I use this for trading automation?**

For backtesting/research yes. For live trading, use a paid real-time feed — this actor prioritizes reliability over sub-second latency.

### Cost

**Pay Per Event**:

- `actor-start`: $0.01 (flat fee per run)
- `dataset-item`: $0.003 per output item

**Example**: 1,000 items = $0.01 + (1,000 × $0.003) = **$3.01**

No subscription required — you only pay for what you use.

# Actor input Schema

## `competitors` (type: `array`):

Each entry is one competitor. Provide pricing page URLs, optional include/exclude patterns, and a stable id. One summary row per competitor is written to the dataset.

## `requestTimeoutSeconds` (type: `integer`):

HTTP request timeout per pricing page fetch.

## `userAgent` (type: `string`):

Optional User-Agent header used for pricing page requests.

## `maxChars` (type: `integer`):

Upper bound for extracted text per pricing page. Increase for long pricing pages with many plans.

## `delivery` (type: `string`):

dataset: write competitor rows to Apify dataset (recommended for starters). webhook: POST JSON payload to webhookUrl. email: placeholder, not implemented in MVP.

## `datasetMode` (type: `string`):

changes\_only: only competitors with detected changes. all: all competitors regardless of change status. action\_needed: only high-severity changes.

## `webhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Required when delivery is webhook.

## `notifyOnNoChange` (type: `boolean`):

When false, webhook delivery is skipped if no competitors changed. Reduces noise.

## `snapshotKey` (type: `string`):

Key used to persist pricing snapshots between runs. Keep this stable across runs. First run seeds the baseline; second run detects the first changes.

## `summaryMaxLines` (type: `integer`):

Maximum added and removed lines included in change summaries per page.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

Concurrent page fetches. Keep at 2–3 for respectful crawling.

## `batchDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Delay between concurrency batches to reduce rate-limit pressure.

## `nowIso` (type: `string`):

Optional deterministic timestamp override for testing.

## `dryRun` (type: `boolean`):

Preview competitor pricing pages without persisting snapshots. Leave false when you want the baseline to count.
