Proxy Tester by ScrapeOps

Benchmark proxies for reliable, target-specific scraping

What it does

ScrapeOps Proxy Tester is a technical benchmarking platform for developers, scraping teams, data providers, SaaS companies, and AI agents selecting proxy infrastructure. Submit a target URL to test 20+ residential, datacenter, mobile, Proxy API, and unblocker configurations. It measures real-world success rate, latency, reliability, bandwidth, and estimated cost, then generates a use-case-specific ranking instead of relying on generic provider claims.

Compare 20+ Proxy API, Residential, Datacenter and Unblocker proxy providers side by side to find the proxy with best performance at the lowest price.

    We've been trying to evaluate web scraping companies, but when you look at their benchmarks, you can't verify anything, and they mostly exist to prove the company is successful. They put somewhere between 98% and 100% because they pick their own urls, define success their own way, and don't publish the harness. We also saw companies like scrapfly astroturf websites like scrapeway and call them independent. So, we built an open source benchmark that we want to represent the frontier of web data. We're trying to look across all major anti-bot providers and industries, to build a comprehensive…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
