Stealth Mode

See a page the way a local visitor does

Turn on Stealth Mode and your scrapes and crawls run through residential proxies in 48 countries. Sites that block cloud traffic, or change prices by country, show you what real visitors see.

{
"urls": [{ "url": "https://…" }],
"prompt": "Every game on sale with its price",
"useProxy": true,

The same two fields work on scrape, batch scrape and crawl.

When to use it

Turn it on when the page depends on who's asking

Leave it off for open pages that load fine without it. It uses proxy bandwidth, so turn it on where it helps.

01

The site blocks data-center traffic

Some sites refuse or challenge requests from cloud servers. A residential connection looks like an ordinary visitor.

02

Prices or content change by country

Currency, stock, search results and offers often depend on where a visitor is. Pick the country you want to see.

03

A page is only shown in some regions

Region-locked pages open when the request comes from a country that's allowed to see them.

You don't need it for Amazon, eBay or Walmart.Those marketplaces are read from their own country automatically, at no bandwidth cost.
What it costs

Billed in bandwidth, not credits

Stealth Mode draws from your plan's proxy bandwidth: every byte the browser loads through the proxy, images and scripts included.

Bandwidth by plan, and about how many pages it covers

Free 50 MB once

≈ 25 pages

Starter 500 MB a month

≈ 250 pages

Builder 2 GB a month

≈ 1,000 pages

Pro 5 GB a month

≈ 2,500 pages

Page counts assume about 2 MB a page, typical for a product or article page. Image-heavy pages can use 20 MB or more.

  • 0 credits

    Stealth Mode never draws credits. The page itself costs what it always does.

  • Runs out?

    The scrape still runs, without the proxy. Pages that then fail cost nothing.

  • Need more?

    Top up 1 GB for $7, 5 GB for $28 or 10 GB for $52 on any paid plan.

In code

Two fields on any scrape, batch or crawl

useProxy turns it on. proxyCountry picks the place; leave it out for worldwide.

Fast Mode honors Stealth Mode too. In the dashboard it's the Stealth Mode switch, with a country picker.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Stealth Mode

It routes a scrape or crawl through residential proxies, connections from real home and mobile networks, instead of from a data center. Sites see an ordinary visitor from the country you choose.
