Proxy provider
ScrapeUnblocker vs Bright Data
Bright Data sells many products: proxy networks, the Web Unlocker API, a SERP API, a Browser API, Scraper APIs and datasets. Its Web Unlocker API is the product closest to ScrapeUnblocker: you send a URL, and it returns the page with proxies, fingerprints and CAPTCHAs handled. Both are priced per request, so the comparison comes down to plan sizes, price per 1,000 requests and what else each API does.
According to its pricing page, Bright Data Web Unlocker costs $1.50 per 1,000 requests on pay as you go, with monthly plans from $499 (383,000 requests), 5,000 free requests per month and unlimited concurrency on pay as you go and Scale. ScrapeUnblocker costs €1.00 per 1,000 requests on pay as you go, with plans from €29 per month (34,000 requests) and 500 free requests on signup. The prices are in different currencies, so compare them at the current exchange rate.
Neither service bills a blocked or failed request by default. ScrapeUnblocker renders every request in a real browser and can return structured JSON with parsed_data=true or plugin endpoints that return parsed JSON for sites such as Skyscanner, Google Maps, eBay and Temu. Bright Data covers more ground around the API, with ready-made datasets, a Browser API and a large proxy network.
