Choose GonzoProxy if
- Irregular residential traffic when unused purchased GB should remain available
- Ad-account workflows that need a sticky residential session
GonzoProxy sells prepaid residential proxy GB without stated expiry for a browser or crawler you run. Scrapfly sells a managed Scrape API billed in feature-dependent monthly credits, with selectable residential routing and rendering. The central choice is whether to maintain fetch and extraction logic around a proxy.

Choose how much fetching, rendering and extraction your team wants to own. Fetch the same permitted pages and extract the same fields: one route returns an API result, while the other leaves the HTTP client and parser with your team.
| Decision | GonzoProxy | Scrapfly | ProxyLane |
|---|---|---|---|
| Example route for this job | GonzoProxyResidential proxy gateway | ScrapflyScrape API | ProxyLaneResidential proxy gateway for your own fetcher or browser; no managed scraping API |
| Charging basis | Traffic allowance; confirm the selected GB or port plan | Product-specific requests, results or credits | Prepaid GB that never expires |
| How you pay | Residential traffic is purchased in GB with volume-based tiers and no stated expiry. Mobile proxies are sold for a paid period with unlimited traffic during that period; confirm the location and current term at checkout. | Scrape API plans contain monthly credits; requests consume credits according to proxy pool, rendering, protection and response size. Overage rules depend on plan and unused monthly quota does not roll over. Cloud Browser documentation describes a separate session-time plus bandwidth credit meter; verify access and current terms in the account. | 350 MB trial for $1.95, then prepaid packages from $6.50/GB for 1 GB down to $2.50/GB for 1 TB. Unused traffic never expires. |
| Integration work | Generate residential proxy credentials in the dashboard; connect over HTTP(S) or SOCKS5 with username/password or IP authorization and select rotation, session and location. A separate account API documents proxy management. | Call api.scrapfly.io/scrape with a target URL, API key and optional proxy_pool=public_residential_pool or render_js=true; use the MCP endpoint for agent tools. Cloud Browser documentation describes CDP/WebSocket integration subject to account availability. | HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 endpoints on three regional gateways: Europe, the Americas and Asia. Export proxy lists in 8 formats for scripts, scrapers and antidetect browsers. |
| A small or irregular job | A prepaid residential GB balance can suit sporadic jobs because GonzoProxy says it does not expire; estimate browser asset traffic before buying. | Estimate credits per actual scrape configuration, including residential routing and rendering, then compare included monthly quota and overage controls. | Start with the 350 MB trial for $1.95 or a 1 GB package. Unused traffic never expires. |
| Browser workflow | Use a sticky residential session for multi-page account work and configure the browser's HTTP(S) or SOCKS5 proxy; GonzoProxy is selling the proxy connection, not a hosted browser. | Scrape API can render JavaScript without exposing a browser session; the separately documented Cloud Browser is the relevant CDP path, with access to confirm. | Sticky sessions from 1 second to 72 hours, with a named session ID for each browser profile. |
| Connecting an agent | Pass GonzoProxy gateway credentials to an MCP browser/fetch tool you operate, or use its account API for management; verify your tool's proxy and credential support. | The official MCP server exposes scraping tools, and the API is directly callable; budget agent retries and any adaptive feature upgrades. | Point your agent's fetcher or browser tool at the proxy endpoint. ProxyLane supplies the network, not a hosted browser. |
| A growing production workload | Residential volume tiers and enterprise quotes exist; test the exact target and session policy before committing traffic for an entire fleet. | Set project credit budgets and concurrency controls and measure credits per successful target result; monthly unused quota does not carry forward. | Target by country, region, city, ZIP, ISP or ASN across 195 countries. Larger packages lower the rate to $2.50/GB. |

Use GonzoProxy's rotating or sticky residential credentials in your existing client for a representative URL set. Count transferred GB, retries and usable extracted fields. Send the same URLs through Scrapfly's Scrape API, enabling residential routing, JavaScript rendering or protection only when needed. Those features and response size change credit consumption. GonzoProxy's residential balance has no stated expiry; Scrapfly's unused monthly included credits do not roll over. Model batches and idle months with those terms, not a raw price-per-unit comparison.
For an MCP agent, Scrapfly documents scraping tools that can be called directly. GonzoProxy's separate account API manages proxy access, but the agent's own client must still make and interpret target requests. Scrapfly's separately documented Cloud Browser has a session-time and bandwidth meter with account availability to confirm, whereas GonzoProxy supplies an exit to a browser you operate. Decide if the task needs remote browser control before adding that route to the worksheet.
