Quick pick
Oxylabs fits if a managed Scraper API layer, JavaScript rendering, CAPTCHA solving, ASN targeting on mobile, or dedicated account management are requirements.
Rayobyte fits if a large C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic replacement, ASN targeting on residential, non-expiring PAYG credits, or IPv6 datacenter proxies are the priorities.
Oxylabs and Rayobyte both offer scraping-adjacent tooling -- but the abstraction differs. Oxylabs wraps the proxy network in a managed Scraper API for JavaScript rendering and structured data extraction. Rayobyte keeps the proxy layer direct but adds a 20,000+ C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic IP replacement, ASN targeting on residential, non-expiring PAYG credits, and a Web Scraping API with free monthly scrapes.
If you choose Oxylabs
What you get that Rayobyte doesn't offer
A Scraper API layer handling JavaScript rendering, CAPTCHA solving, and structured data extraction as a managed service -- Rayobyte's Web Scraping API is more limited in managed rendering. ASN targeting on mobile proxies. A larger residential pool with broader country coverage. Dedicated account managers on enterprise plans. A Web Scraper IDE for no-code data collection. A free residential trial. Oxylabs documents completed compliance materials.
What you give up
Rayobyte's 20,000+ C-class datacenter subnet network with automatic 30-day IP replacement cycles. ASN targeting on residential proxies -- Oxylabs documents ASN on mobile, not residential. Non-expiring PAYG credits -- purchased bandwidth does not expire. EWDCI certified membership for sourcing ethics. IPv6 datacenter proxies. Immediate onboarding without account approval.

Non-expiring PAYG credits -- purchased bandwidth does not expire. EWDCI certified membership for sourcing ethics. IPv6 datacenter proxies. Immediate onboarding without account approval.
What you give up
Oxylabs' Scraper API -- JavaScript rendering, CAPTCHA solving, and structured extraction as a managed layer. ASN targeting on mobile. A larger residential pool. Dedicated account managers. The Web Scraper IDE. A free residential trial. Rayobyte does not publish an uptime SLA or success-rate guarantee; Oxylabs' enterprise plans include more formal support terms.
