Start with one monthly volume— 100,000 rows. The chart compares Bytewells (rent plus usage from recent runs, compute and platform proxy) with Apify on each plan. Bars are result charges only; Apify platform fees are in the table below.
Cheaper for high-volume use from the first row. This estimate is under Apify's lowest public price from the first row.
Cost per 1,000 rows
The estimate on the card is about $0.03 per 1,000 rows from recent settled runs (compute at 0.22 CU, or $0.03, plus platform proxy when the Actor uses it). A compute unit is 1 GB of memory for one hour, at $0.15.
Throughput
Throughput from the same recent succeeded runs, counted the other way. Startup stays in the time, so a long run returns rows a little faster than this.

Monthly cost against Apify
Bytewells is monthly rental plus usage, with no platform commitment. Apify charges a plan fee plus per-result usage. The cost column is only that usage at the row count below; commitments are the platform subscription.
| 100,000 rows a month | Monthly commitment | Usage cost |
|---|---|---|
| Bytewells | No commitment | $3.33 |
| Bytewells rental | — | $0 |
| Bytewells usage | — | $3.33 |
| Bytewells compute (est.) | — | $3.33 |
| Apify Free | $0 | $50 |
| Apify Starter | $19/mo | $50 |
| Apify Scale | $199/mo | $50 |
| Apify Business | $999/mo | $50 |
How this estimate is made
The cost per 1,000 rows divides the compute from recent succeeded runs in the last 90 days by the rows those runs returned. Startup time on a short run stays in the rate, so a long month is priced a little high. The median and the 99th percentile are per-run rates from the same window.
