Cents per check, not a subscription. It costs nothing to install, with no tiers, seats or anything to unlock. Each question is billed to your own Apify account at published per-result prices, usually cents. Above five cents, or for anything that repeats, Claude gives one estimate and waits for your yes.

Apify's free plan includes $5 of credit every month.
That covers about 30 idea checks at about 15 cents each. Or a daily price watch on 50 products (about $1.30 a month) and weekly minimum-price checks on 20 barcodes (about $1.10), with room for a dozen idea checks. The figures on this page are at Bronze, Apify's paid-plan price, and lower on Silver and Gold. From 7 November 2026, reads through the data providers (eBay, Etsy, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, Lowe's, Trustpilot, Meta and TikTok ads) cost about twice as much on Apify's free plan, and TikTok Shop product rows, store-technology lookups and AliExpress product pages about one and a half times; Claude quotes both prices when they differ.

Your account. Published prices.
Every job runs CleanPull's data tools in your own Apify account, and Apify bills that account at the price on each tool's Store page. MarketMage never bills you itself. Some sources come through data providers CleanPull holds the accounts for; their reads appear on your bill as provider and library events, at the tools' published prices, and you never set them up.
Who earns the money: CleanPull, the team behind MarketMage, earns the per-result price; Apify keeps its share.

Cents per check. No subscription.
Product research tools are usually a monthly subscription. MarketMage has none: you pay per check, in your own Apify account.
| Tool | How you pay | From |
|---|---|---|
| Jungle Scout, Starter | Subscription | $49 a month $29 a month billed yearly |
| Helium 10, Platinum | Subscription | $129 a month $99 a month billed yearly |
| Kalodata, Starter | Subscription | about $46 a month billed monthly |
| MarketMage | Per check, no subscription | about $0.14 a verdict on one idea |
Entry-level paid plans, from each company's own pricing page, checked 13 November 2026. They are research suites with features of their own; this compares how you pay, not what each one does. Apify's free plan includes $5 of credit a month, about 30 idea checks.
Your yes before anything paid. Then it can't run away.
Every run has a spending limit a little above its estimate, never above a budget you set.
Asked first
Above $0.05, Claude gives one estimate from the tools' published prices, with a soft note ("about $0.20, occasionally a little more if I need to dig deeper to answer you"), and waits for your yes; before saving a watch, the monthly cost. Under $0.05 a read just runs. Cost is said there and nowhere else: no cost lines on answers or next steps.
Limited while it runs
A run started in the chat carries an Apify spending limit a little above its estimate, so a job can finish without asking twice: the larger of 1.5 times the estimate or the estimate plus $0.15, and never above a budget you gave. A watch carries a maximum cost per run that every CleanPull tool holds itself to; you can change it on the watch's page in the Apify Console.
Exports by rows
Scheduled exports to Google Sheets carry a row limit instead: an export costs at most the limit × $0.0001.

Each skill's docs page has its own figures, and Claude's estimate before each run is the one that counts.

Some data tools add small charges for optional extras, listed on their Store pages; Silver and Gold pay less.

About billing.
Which Claude plan do I need?
Any Claude plan, Free included. The scheduled Monday briefing uses Claude's scheduled tasks, which come with the paid plans. MarketMage itself costs nothing to install; the research runs are billed by Apify, below.
Who bills me, and who earns the money?
Apify bills your Apify account at each tool's published per-result price. MarketMage never bills you itself. CleanPull, the team behind MarketMage, earns the per-result price; Apify keeps its share. Charges, invoices and plan questions go to Apify support; we're glad to explain any charge from our data tools.
Can a run cost more than Claude said?
Occasionally a little more, if Claude needs to dig deeper to answer you, and never past the run's spending limit: a little above the estimate, and never above a budget you set. Claude quotes the Bronze price, and the free-plan price too where it differs, so the estimate covers your plan. Watches carry a maximum cost per run, which you can see and change in the Apify Console.
Do I need any account keys?
No data-source keys. You sign in with Apify, and CleanPull's data tools read the sources. If you ask for a watch's digests in Slack, Discord, Teams or email, those settings are pasted on the watch's page in the Apify Console, never in the chat.
What happens when the $5 of free credit runs out?
On Apify's free plan, once the month's $5 of credit is used, Apify blocks the account until the next monthly cycle: no runs start, scheduled watches stay silent until then, and nothing more is charged. On a paid Apify plan, runs carry on, billed under that plan up to your usage limit. Either way, anything over five cents waits for your yes, and every run has a spending limit.
Can I cap what my whole Apify account spends in a month?
Yes, with Apify's usage limit, which covers everything in the account, not only MarketMage. In the Apify Console: in the left-side panel go to Billing, select the Limits tab, and in Custom usage limit select Edit limit. It sets how much the account can spend in a billing cycle. On the free plan it can't go above the free $5. Apify's guide: subscriptions and limits.
Can my team or agency work in one account?
Yes, through an Apify Organization account, Apify's own way for several people to work in one account, or with one Apify account per person; a personal account's sign-in isn't shared. Client research and client reports are allowed, and Claude can label each client's watches and report what each client cost. See teams and agencies.
How do I stop a watch?
Ask "What am I watching?" and then "Stop my price watch." Watches are saved watches named cw-… in your Apify account, so you can also pause them there. Claude pauses a watch for you; deleting it for good is done in the Apify Console.
Cents per question. Your yes before anything paid.
