Comparison

A ProxyEmpire alternative priced by the month, not the gigabyte

ProxyEmpire's rotating mobile pool spans 170+ countries — billed per gigabyte, $9 for one, $4–$8.33 on plans. Their only unlimited product is residential, from $1,500 a month. Here unlimited mobile is the standard product: a dedicated US 5G modem at $60 flat, with a free hour instead of their $1.97 paid trial.

The honest version

Where it's a tie — and where it isn't

The differences that matter are measurable.

Heavy months shouldn't cost multiples

Automation traffic isn't steady — launch weeks and scrape backlogs spike it. Per-GB billing makes your busiest month your priciest; a flat $60 makes it a non-event. If you routinely burn more than ~10GB a month, the meter already lost.

Dedicated beats pooled for account work

A pool IP's history belongs to everyone who used it before you. A dedicated modem's history is yours alone — which is what account farming, ad accounts and storefront management actually need.

Trials should be free

Charging $1.97 to try a proxy is a small tell. Ours is a signup form and a free hour on real hardware — no card in the flow at all.

Where they're honestly strong

Rollover data, granular country/region/city/carrier filters, and 170+ countries of pool coverage are real advantages of their model — if your work needs a little data in a lot of places. If it needs a lot of data in one US city, that's ours.
