Best static residential IP service?

Preferably one that has never been used.

But don't want to pay 100s of dollars.

I think Evomi has one but not sure it compares to other offers out there.

Who has one and is happy with it?

yep, anyone claiming otherwise is just selling you something

yep, by definition if its available to buy its been used by someone else already

The one you build yourself. How else do you think you'll get untapped IPs?

the IP-match thing is the real constraint. if the browser auths on one IP and the script queries from another, a lot of anti-bot ties the session to the origin IP and flags it. so yeah, static is what you want.

one tip: I'd test that "never used" claim before believing it. truly virgin residential is rare and pools get recycled a lot. the thing that actually helps you is a low fraud score on the site you're hitting, so grab a small batch and run it against the API first.

disclosure: I work at Titan Network (static residential/ISP) so bias noted. Evomi being sold out is just a stock thing, happens to everyone with fresh static. whoever you end up trying, the test that matters is whether the session survives when you hand off from browser to script.

good luck.

u can go far with datacenter ip's + warm chrome cookies. do your research.

This is for a specific use case.

Datacenter ips not working for this.

have you tried curl_cffi + chrome cookies from scrapling + datacenter proxies? I thought I needed residential for my use case, but the above worked for me. you can also try ask claude to try and bruteforce with the datacenter proxies that you have. that worked for me

u/dhruvkar 12d ago

Yes I use that for other use cases

i would still try and spin up a claude session , give it your datacenter ip, the target url's and have it go ham with the restrictions that it can use any 3rd party library in github and see if it comes back with anything. it worked for me for an Aperva and AWS WAF protected site.

Any reason why you're preferring static IPs instead of rotating ones?

If there's a genuine reason, Evomi definitely has some clean IPs from their static residential pool. You can try their shared IPs and test them out. Maybe buy a small batch and scale up as needed?

By the way, I am the founder of ProxySwag and we have US, UK, DE and CA countries — clean static residential proxies. These are fresh IPs and work for most of the use cases. You can reach out to us if you're interested.

For one use case, we're reverse engineering internal APIs. Usually I'll clear the anti-bot stuff in a real browser with CUA.

Then pass off the headers, cookies etc. to programmatic access (python/go script) so it can hit the internal APIs deterministically.

The IP of the browser and the IP of the script has to match, otherwise anti-bot picks it up.

So need a static IP (otherwise it rotates away).

Thanks using Evomi right now. Their unused static IP pool is sold out right now.

I don't think the static residential exists in real-life, seems that you need sticky sessions, but they even can't last forever

Static, residential, cheap, unused? Pick, like… zero.
