Turn open source tools into paid actors on the Apify Store
The Apify Store pays developers monthly for actors people actually use, and most of the best candidates are open source tools nobody has packaged yet. This framework gives you the production actor structure, professional schemas for input, output, and storage, and Docker packaging for wrapping OSS tools.
Alongside the code you get the monetization training and the marketing playbook: how to pick tools worth wrapping, how to price, and how to get an actor found in the store.
This was the Code to Cash session system. It pairs naturally with Claude Code: describe the tool, let the agent build the wrapper on the skeleton, publish, and move to the next one.
