Bright Data fits if a financial SLA, dedicated residential IPs, HAR instrumentation, GDPR DPA, a 150M+ pool, or ZIP and coordinate targeting alongside ASN are requirements.
Rayobyte fits if a large C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic replacement, non-expiring PAYG credits, a Web Scraping API, or IPv6 datacenter proxies are the priorities.
Bright Data and Rayobyte both offer ASN targeting on residential -- a capability not usually documented by budget-tier providers. The comparison diverges around it. Bright Data adds a 15-minute SLA, dedicated IPs, HAR instrumentation, a 150M+ pool, and a GDPR DPA. Rayobyte adds a 20,000+ C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic 30-day IP replacement, non-expiring PAYG credits, a Web Scraping API with free monthly scrapes, and EWDCI certified membership.
If you choose Bright Data
What you get that Rayobyte doesn't offer
A 150M+ residential pool. A published SLA with a 15-minute engineer response and financial penalty terms -- Rayobyte does not publish an uptime SLA. Dedicated residential IPs with exclusive peer assignment. HAR-level traffic instrumentation through the Proxy Manager. Automatic failover on residential. GDPR and CCPA compliance with a published DPA. 7M mobile IPs across 3G/4G/5G. ZIP and coordinate targeting on residential alongside ASN.
What you give up
Rayobyte's 20,000+ C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic 30-day IP replacement -- reduces detection risk from burned datacenter IPs. Non-expiring PAYG credits -- purchased bandwidth does not expire. A Web Scraping API with free monthly scrapes included. EWDCI certified membership for sourcing ethics -- independently referenced. IPv6 datacenter proxies. No KYC requirement at entry; Bright Data gates full residential access behind verification.
