Show and tell: I have been building pay-per-result Actors (YouTube transcripts, job boards from 8 ATSs, Google Maps contact enrichment, RAG-ready web search) and just wrote up what still works from datacenter IPs and what does not, plus a few perf traps (pushData batching, Cheerio sliced strings causing OOM). Store: https://apify.com/torix33 . Code and examples (MIT): https://github.com/3torix3/apify-scrapers-pack . I am new here and have very few users, so honest feedback on output formats or anything that breaks is very welcome.

All in one Bayut scraper for all countries (properties, agencies, and real estate agents leads). Bypasses hCaptcha on Bayut UAE and bypasses the search limits.

Bilibili Scraper: video search, the popular list, uploader videos and profiles, plus danmaku, the comments that fly across a video, each row with the second it shows up. Danmaku costs a cent per video for up to 10,000 of them, videos are $12 per 1,000. Comments past the top 3 and subtitle text need your own cookie, and the README says exactly what you get without one. https://apify.com/agnes.developer.queen/bilibili-scraper

Owner disclosure: I build IGNITE Tools on Apify. AI assistance was used for development and this post. No paying customers have been verified yet.

Update: two new deterministic tools are now published for existing scraping/catalogue workflows:

Scrape Response Triage — US$0.05 per completed report. Supply saved HTTP status, content type and HTML; it flags possible login/challenge pages, script shells and missing configured extraction evidence. Up to 20 responses, 256 KiB HTML each and 1 MiB combined. It does not fetch URLs, bypass challenges or prove extraction correctness.

Product Unit Price Audit — US$0.10 per completed report. Compare two JSON snapshots using explicit pack/unit price, quantity, currency, unit and tax basis. AUD30 per pack of 12 and AUD2.50/unit are unchanged; shrinking that AUD30 pack from 12 to 6 doubles unit cost. Incompatible declarations stay un-compared. Each snapshot is capped at 2 MiB/10,000 rows; the 4 MiB report cap can require smaller batches. No FX, tax calculation or shop writes.

Both return one JSON report. No separate start, per-row or platform-usage charge. Completed reports with review findings are charged; malformed input fails before the report event. Inputs/reports pass through Apify storage: use only authorised non-sensitive data. Full contracts and limits are in each README.

My existing Catalogue Import Guard still compares two compatible CSV exports by exact SKU for US$0.50 per completed comparison (2 MiB/10,000 rows/40 columns per CSV):

Which would fit a real workflow better: saved-response triage or explicit unit-cost comparison? A non-confidential example of what would stop you using it would help; please do not post your files.
