Bright Data alternative for mobile proxies

Bright Data is a strong enterprise web-data platform for residential, ISP, and datacenter proxies, but its current public proxy pages don’t list mobile proxies as a selectable product. If your workload specifically needs real US mobile carrier IPs, here’s an honest look at how Proxidize fits mobile-first workflows, and where Bright Data still leads.

What Changed

Does Bright Data still offer mobile proxies?

Short answer: not as a publicly listed product. Here's exactly what their pages show.

Bright Data’s current public proxy navigation lists three categories: Residential, ISP, and Datacenter. There is no mobile proxy category listed, and Bright Data’s dedicated mobile-proxy product page now serves the same general proxy-types content instead of a standalone mobile offering.

If you have an existing enterprise agreement with Bright Data, confirm current availability directly with their team. This page reflects what’s publicly listed as of July 9, 2026.

Use Case Fit

Which provider fits your job?

Comparing vendors in the abstract is pointless. The right answer depends on what you're actually doing, so here's our honest read, use case by use case.

Need real US mobile carrier IPs

Better fit: Proxidize

Bright Data's current public proxy pages don't list a mobile proxy category to compare against.

Global residential scraping at enterprise scale

Either works

Bright Data's 400M+ IP pool is larger; Proxidize's flat $1/GB rate is cheaper at most volumes. Compare on price and targeting for your specific footprint.

Long-lived static IPs you keep indefinitely

Better fit: Bright Data

Bright Data ISP proxies let you keep the same IP for life; Proxidize doesn't publicly offer ISP proxies yet.

High-volume datacenter scraping

Better fit: Bright Data

Bright Data publishes dedicated datacenter proxy pricing; Proxidize doesn't currently offer a datacenter product.

Account workflows needing a stable mobile exit

Better fit: Proxidize

Per-proxy mobile plans give you a consistent carrier IP you control, with unlimited bandwidth.

One vendor for proxies plus scraping APIs and datasets

Better fit: Bright Data

Bright Data bundles proxies with a scraper API, SERP API, and ready-made datasets; Proxidize is proxy-focused.

Simple self-serve setup without a sales call

Better fit: Proxidize

Standard Proxidize plans are self-serve with credentials ready in under a minute; several Bright Data plans route through their sales team.

Getting Started

Getting real mobile carrier IPs takes minutes, not days.

Bright Data doesn't publish a mobile proxy product to migrate away from, so this is how to add real US mobile carrier IPs to your stack alongside whatever else you already use Bright Data for.

  1. Create a free account

    Sign up for free: no credit card, no sales call.

  2. Pick per-GB or per-proxy

    Per-GB gives flexible access to the full mobile pool billed by data. Per-proxy gives you a SIM-based exit of your own with unlimited bandwidth.

  3. Create an access point

    Choose a US city or random rotation, pick a carrier, and set sticky or random IP behavior.

  4. Copy your credentials

    Credentials are generated live in HTTP or SOCKS5 format, with auto-generated cURL examples and formatted proxy list exports.

  5. Test before switching traffic

    Run your existing scraper or browser profile against the new endpoint with a small job and compare success rates side by side.

  6. Monitor usage in real time

    The built-in analytics dashboard shows bandwidth trends, top domains, and a live connection log per access point.

Verify your new proxy in one line
curl -x "http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT" https://ipinfo.io

The dashboard generates this for you with real credentials. Copy, paste, and you’re live.
