I publish paid Actors on Apify Store (11 of them, pay-per-event), so I have seen the platform from both sides. The actor model is genuinely serverless: push a Dockerfile, get an API endpoint, storage, proxies and a public product page. The MCP server changed how my actors get consumed — AI agents discover and call them with zero integration work. And pay-per-event monetization is real money: pricing via API, payouts via PayPal, docs that match reality. Watch-outs: the automated QA runs every store actor with the prefilled input (design your demo path), and significant pricing changes carry a 14-day notice. Net: the most practical way I have found to sell web data tools to both humans and AI agents.I publish paid Actors on Apify Store (11 of them, pay-per-event), so I have seen the platform from both sides — as a user and as a developer earning from it.
What stands out: the actor model is genuinely serverless (push a Dockerfile, get an API endpoint, storage, proxies and a public product page), the MCP server changed how my actors get consumed (AI agents discover and call them with zero integration work), and the pay-per-event monetization is real money — pricing updates via API, payouts via PayPal, docs that match reality.
Watch-outs: the automated QA runs every store actor with the prefilled input, so design your demo path accordingly; and read the pricing docs twice before your first pricing change (significant changes carry a 14-day notice).
