[Pricing](https://rewalto.com/pricing) ## Questions to ask any vendor, including us 1. Which Indian shopping apps and pin codes does it read today, and who keeps that reading working when an app changes its pages? 2. Is a record tied to a pin code, a city or the whole country, and does it say which? 3. Does every record carry its source: the page address, the time it was read and the text it came from? 4. What do you pay for when a run returns nothing, or returns a page an app blocked? 5. Apify's page says its tools can scrape almost any retail site. Ask which Indian quick-commerce apps a tool reads by pin code today, and who fixes it when the app changes. Our own answers to the shelf questions are on the [method page](https://rewalto.com/10-minute-shelf/method) and the [data coverage page](https://rewalto.com/data/coverage). How the data reaches your app or AI agent is in the [quick commerce API guide for India](https://rewalto.com/guides/quick-commerce-api-india). ## About this page Information about Apify is taken from its public website on 30 October 2026 and quoted exactly.
