Apify slashes Starter plan price 34%, from $29 to $19/month
What happened
Between the Aug 31, 2026 and Sep 7, 2026 captures of Apify's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Starter plan monthly base price dropped from $29 to $19 (a 34% cut), confirmed on both the plan card and the plan-comparison table's prepaid usage row. Pulse files it as a pricing change (price decrease) with a downward direction. The current page lists Starter at $26, Scale at $179 and Business at $899.
It lands 7 days after Apify's previous change, "Apify slashes Free plan's concurrent Actor runs from 25 to 5" (Aug 31, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Apify doubles Actor RAM limits across all tiers to 512 GB max" (Jun 29, 2026) and "Apify: Compute unit pricing cut across all plans + Actor RAM doubled" (Jul 2, 2026). Apify has been tracked since 2024-10-01.
In the same window Beautiful.ai and Puppet also changed their AI & Machine Learning pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
