These are starting points; each scene page has finer platform differences and session options.

Start in three steps

  1. Pick the task

    Enter the scene page for what you need done, not the proxy taxonomy first.

    Expected result One or two candidate scenes.

  2. Get the recommended setup

    The scene page names the proxy type, region and session, linking straight to the configuration page.

    Expected result Configuration page pre-selected.

  3. Connect and verify

    Configure your tool by the scene notes and confirm via the exit check; the two-minute getting-started guide covers the first connection.

    Expected result Exit region matches expectation.

Browse by platform and industry

Each group separates its own tasks and limitations. The guides are starting points for verification, not a compatibility certificate.

Social media management

Static ISP proxies for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X and 9 more networks: one fixed IP per account, and where each network is blocked.

Cross-border ecommerce

Proxies for Amazon, eBay, Shopify, TikTok Shop and 6 more marketplaces: a fixed IP for every store login, local residential IPs for research.

Ad operations and verification

Check Google, Meta, TikTok, Microsoft, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Reddit ads and landing pages from the countries and cities you target.

Web3 development and research

Datacenter IPs for RPC, indexers and testnets; residential IPs for Etherscan, DeFi and NFT research; static ISP for wallets and DAO teams.

AI tool connectivity

Static ISP proxies for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot and 5 more AI tools: one fixed IP per person, and each vendor’s country rules.

Rotating residential IPs for scraping, price checks and rank tracking; fixed datacenter IPs for tests, monitors, API jobs and AI agents.

Proxies for Traffic Arbitrage

Static ISP IPs for ad cabinets (one cabinet — one fixed IP for the lease term, from US$0.50 per IP) and rotating residential IPs for landing and ad geo checks with country, state and city targeting; residential traffic from US$1.50/GB, prepaid, no subscription.

Need an observation rather than account operations?

Market research compares public offers and catalogue context. SEO monitoring compares query/result observations and explains what an owned Search Console report measures. Neither page turns a small sample into market demand or measured business impact.

When the choice is still unclear

The app opens, but an API job fails

Check Check which process sends the failing request and whether it owns separate proxy settings.

Fix Use the automation guide and test that client directly.

You only need your site's historical search data

Check A new browser observation cannot reconstruct past impressions or clicks.

Fix Start with the report you are authorized to view; use regional samples only to investigate a specific question.

The target asks for authentication or denies access

Check Changing an exit does not change the target's access rules.

Fix Stop and use an authorized account or documented data route.

New to proxy settings?

The first-connection guide gives you a local curl exercise with synthetic credentials and paired request records. It does not need a paid proxy or platform account. Compare connection types after you know what must remain stable and what you need to observe.
