## FAQ

### How much does using these tools cost?

Costs are billed directly to your Apify account based on the specific actor's Store price per event.

### Can I limit how much money a single tool call spends?

Yes, you can use the _maxChargeUsd parameter to set a per-run spending cap in USD.

### What if a tool takes a long time to finish?

If a job is long-running, the tool returns a runId which you can use with the get_run_results tool to collect the data later.
