Methodology

Proxy providers price products in many ways. Here’s how we standardize pricing and what we consider comparable.

Comparable vs non-comparable

A record is marked comparable only when it includes an explicit per-GB rate (for example $5/GB) or a plan that can be converted to $/GB.

When pricing is expressed as per IP, per proxy, or per thread, we do not convert it to $/GB because bandwidth allowances vary and conversion would be misleading. Those records are shown as non-comparable.

How we compute $/GB

  • If the tier already provides $X/GB, we use that as the per-GB rate.
  • If the tier is a plan like $600/50GB, we compute 600 / 50 = 12.00 $/GB.
  • For each provider + proxy type, we compute the min and max $/GB across tiers.

Sorting and recommendations

  • Comparison tables sort by min $/GB (lowest first) for comparable records.
  • The calculator recommends providers by selecting the cheapest tier that covers your requested GB (when available).
