utilise le serveur MCP Apify ou la façade MCP Adaga, lit le schéma d’entrée de l’outil, puis lance une tâche publique ou un appel API avec votre jeton Apify.\n\n## Peut-on payer sans compte Apify ?\n\nOui. Les Actors éligibles acceptent x402 avec USDC sur Base. La plateforme renvoie un défi de paiement HTTP 402 avant l’exécution.\n\n## Les exemples publics sont-ils exécutables ?\n\nOui. Chaque exemple est une tâche Apify publiée avec une entrée préremplie, une FAQ et un jeu de données de démonstration issu d’un test réel. Certains dry-runs produisent des données techniques ou de démonstration clairement identifiées.\n\n## Built for AI agents first\n\nThrough the Apify MCP server, your agent reads each tool's README and input schema, then calls it. Zero integration code.\n\n**MCP-native** Claude, GPT, Cursor, n8n and any MCP client discovers the tools via\n\n`mcp.apify.com` — search, read the docs, call.\n**x402 / USDC agentic payments** Agents without an Apify account pay per call in USDC on Base. Verified live end-to-end on all paid actors.\n\n**Pay-per-event, never subscription** From $0.002 per result. No seats, no monthly fee, no lock-in. Free tier on Apify covers evaluation.\n\n**Production edge cases handled** Consent walls, French number formats, residential proxies, anti-bot — the ugly parts are already solved.\n\n## Call one in 60 seconds\n\n```\ncurl -X POST \"https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/travelmonitorlab~google-maps-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN\" \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\"queries\": [\"dentists in Lyon\"], \"maxResults\": 1, \"includeReviews\": false}'\n\n# or just tell your agent: \"find me one dentist in Lyon with a phone number\"\n```\n\n", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/pay-per-use-apis-for-ai-agents", "canonical_source": "https://adagasolutions.lu/toolbox/", "published_at": "2026-11-03 08:00:18+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-11-03 08:21:23.108848+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-agents", "agent-protocols", "ai-tools", "generative-engine-optimization", "ai-search"], "entities": ["Adaga Solutions", "Apify Store", "Google Maps Scraper", "LinkedIn Profile Scraper", "RAG Web Browser", "AI Brand Visibility Tracker", "Model Context Protocol", "Claude"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/pay-per-use-apis-for-ai-agents", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/pay-per-use-apis-for-ai-agents.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/pay-per-use-apis-for-ai-agents.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/pay-per-use-apis-for-ai-agents.jsonld"}}
