Client API is open: buy, renew, top up and generate proxy lists programmatically Quick one for anyone automating their proxies. Our client API is live, and it covers the whole workflow from code instead of the dashboard. With a single key you can buy a plan, renew it, top up traffic by the...

Proxies for AI agents and WebMCP WebMCP has been all over the timeline this week. The idea: instead of your agent clicking through a page built for humans and re-reading the whole DOM every pass, the site exposes structured actions the agent just calls. Cleaner for the site, far cheaper in...

ISP proxies are the rotation killer. Case from one of our clients. Client came in with aged accounts running on residential with sticky sessions. IPs clean, pool fine. And still, every few days another profile got pushed into verification, then SMS confirmation. His theory was a dirty pool. It...

Why platforms can't just ban mobile IPs People say mobile proxies are the most trusted and leave it there. The interesting part is why, and it's not magic - it's CGNAT. Carriers don't hand every phone its own public address. Thousands of real subscribers sit behind one IP at the same time. So...

"Dedicated IP" doesn't mean clean IP. Check the ASN before you pay. Common mix-up: people buy a dedicated IP thinking they're getting something premium. Dedicated only means nobody else is using it. It says nothing about how a site scores it. What actually gets scored is the ASN - the network...

Bought clean proxies and still getting flagged? Check these leaks before you blame the pool. Half the "your proxies are dirty" complaints have nothing to do with the proxy. The IP is fine, the setup is leaking. IPv6. Your proxy is IPv4, your machine has IPv6 on, and the site just connects over...

New proxy use case: checking what AI says about your brand People google less and ask ChatGPT or Perplexity more - "which service should I get", "who's better". What the AI says there matters about as much as rankings used to. Catch is, there's no single answer. It changes by country, by...

Proxies for multi-accounting Platforms mostly link accounts by IP, so keep it simple: 1. One stable IP per profile - a unique sessid on residential or mobile, or a dedicated IPv4 if you want a permanent address. 2. Don't rotate a logged-in account. Swapping IP mid-session looks like someone...

How to tell an IP is dead before it wrecks your run Small pool, fine. Hundreds of addresses and it's a mess - half of them are already dead and you find out from a sagging success rate at the end. Track health per target, not globally. An IP works fine on one site and is banned on another, so...

Case: how to actually price ISP proxies when the per-IP sticker lies. The "same basket" method. Saw a breakdown worth stealing. They took one fixed basket - 10 static US addresses, 12 months - and priced it across every provider. Not the "from $2/IP" on the landing page, but what actually...

Ran into a writeup. Guy spent three weeks building a scraper for a simple job: price, availability, shipping for 200 products across 50 stores. Then he binned it and replaced it with one LLM function - feed the page, get structured data back. And it works. Layout changes, the model adapts, no...

"30/60/150/300 million IPs in our pool" - how many actually work? Here's the 15-minute test. Every provider leads with pool size. 30 million IPs, 50 million, whatever. The part they don't put on the landing page: a huge chunk of those addresses are already sitting on blocklists before you ever...

Cloudflare's Sept 15 AI bot thing What actually happens: Cloudflare starts blocking the Agent and Training crawler categories by default on ad pages - and only on domains that newly join Cloudflare. Existing sites aren't touched. Search stays allowed. So it's aimed at AI agents browsing sites...
