### Pay-per-result against API scrapers

API Dojo sells 2 billing models. Pay-per-result scrapers charge for each item in the dataset. API scrapers charge a fee per query, one profile, video, hashtag or location, that includes a set of free items, then a per-item price.

| Dimension | Pay per result | API · per query plus item |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Billing unit | Item only | Query fee plus item |
| Free items per query | None | 10 to 100, depending on the scraper |
| Cost with few items per input | Lowest, no query fee | The query fee dominates |
| Cost at the free-item threshold | Equal. Ten comments from each of 500 TikTok videos costs $1.50 either way: 500 × $0.003 on TikTok Comments Scraper API, 5,000 × $0.0003 on TikTok Comments Scraper. |
| Pairs in the catalogue | TikTok, TikTok Profile, TikTok Comments, Instagram, YouTube | Their API counterparts |

Prices apply to Apify paid plans. The free Apify plan runs scrapers in demo mode with capped items per run.

## How do API Dojo scrapers work?

API Dojo scrapers run as Actors on the Apify platform. One Apify API token starts any of the 26 scrapers, and every run writes its results to a dataset you export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read through the API.

1.  01

    ### Pick a scraper

    Filter the catalogue above by platform and data type.

2.  02

    ### Enter URLs, handles or keywords

    Set the filters and the maximum item count.

3.  03

    ### Run and export

    Download the dataset or stream it into your stack.

Python · apify-client

```
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

# Any of the 33 IDs on this page, for example
# apidojo/tweet-scraper, apidojo/tiktok-scraper,
# apidojo/youtube-transcript-scraper
ACTOR = "apidojo/tiktok-comments-scraper"

run = client.actor(ACTOR).call(run_input=INPUT)
items = client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).list_items().items
```

Where the data goes

**The Apify app connects any API Dojo scraper to your tools.** n8n, Make and Zapier

**The Apify MCP server exposes the scrapers as tools to Claude, Cursor and other agents.** MCP

**The official apify-client packages.** Python and JavaScript

**A run-sync endpoint, plus a webhook on run success.** REST and webhooks

**Google Sheets, Google Drive, Airtable and S3.** Storage exports

## What can API Dojo scrapers not collect?

API Dojo scrapers collect only publicly visible data that loads without logging in. They do not access private accounts, direct messages or paywalled content, and each dataset reflects what the platform serves at run time.

-   ### No private or login-only data

    Private profiles, direct messages and close-friends stories stay out of scope.

    Use the platform's official API with user consent for first-party data.

-   ### Platform filtering applies

    Hidden, removed or shadow-limited content does not appear.

    Test the query on the platform first, then widen the date range or the sort mode.

-   ### Concurrency caps on some scrapers

    Tweet Scraper V2 runs one job at a time, with up to five batched queries.

    Batch the inputs into a single run. Each scraper page lists its own caps.

-   ### An Apify account is required

    All scrapers run on Apify, and the free plan runs them in demo mode.

    Any paid Apify plan removes the demo caps.

### API Dojo against an in-house scraper

|  | API Dojo scrapers | Your own scrapers |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Maintenance when a platform changes | Daily, by API Dojo | Your engineers, on their schedule |
| Proxies and anti-bot handling | Included in the price | Bought and tuned separately |
| Billing | Per item, or per query | Servers, proxies and engineering time |
| Platforms covered | 5 platforms, 26 scrapers today | One build per platform |
| Control over the output schema | Fixed schema, with a custom map function on some scrapers | Full control |
