Oxylabs sells one subscription that covers its Search and Scrape APIs and its proxies, and the entry Starter plan costs $15 a month, the lowest monthly fee here. The /Scrape endpoint starts at $0.50 per 1,000 results and falls to $0.25 at 10M+ results, while Google with JavaScript costs more. Dedicated targets for Amazon, Google and Walmart take target-specific parameters and return cleaner output, and a newer set of LLM scrapers collects answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Mode at $1.50 per 1,000 results. Oxylabs cites 177M+ proxies across 195 countries, 99.9% API uptime and more than 11 years in the business, and it connects to agents through MCP and Agent Skills. New accounts get $5 in welcome credits. The pricing page lists dozens of per-target rates, so cost estimates take work, AI parsing is a separate $3.00 per 1,000 pages, and enterprise deals start at $2,500 a month.
