Bright Data is a leading global web data platform based in Israel and operating since 2014. The platform pairs an award-winning proxy network of over 400 million IPs with advanced web scraping APIs, scraping browsers and pre-collected datasets, aimed at enterprise buyers who need scale and compliance alongside a single-vendor stack.
Network and pool size
Bright Data advertises 400M+ IPs across 195 countries, including residential, mobile, ISP and datacenter. The residential pool is the largest in the public comparison set, complemented by ISP, mobile and datacenter coverage. The combined scale and the scraping APIs built on top of the same network are the headline differentiators.
Pricing and plans
Residential and mobile traffic is priced per gigabyte with aggressive entry around $0.075 per gigabyte on the largest bundles and reaching higher per-GB rates on smaller commitments. ISP and datacenter proxies are sold per IP per month. Enterprise contracts with custom pricing, dedicated account management and bespoke terms are available for large buyers.
Where Bright Data fits
Bright Data is positioned for enterprise web scraping, AI training data and high-performance proxy infrastructure. It is well suited to market intelligence, brand protection, ad verification, AI data collection and any workload where the largest residential pool plus a managed scraping API is the deciding factor.
Reputation and support
Independent review scores are strong: 4.6 on Trustpilot, 4.6 on G2 and 4.7 on Capterra. Bright Data is widely cited for robust infrastructure, fast response times and reliable scraping APIs. Enterprise customers have access to dedicated account managers; smaller buyers use 24/7 live chat and email.
What to watch for
Premium positioning means Bright Data is rarely the cheapest on small monthly volumes, especially for buyers who do not need the scraping APIs. Real success rate against your specific destinations should be measured with a paid test rather than assumed from advertised pool size.
