Stealth Mode

Make your scraper go undetected on the internet, by enabling custom evasion techniques.
We've developed a set of tools that mimique human behaviour on the internet, making it harder for anti-bot systems to detect our scraper. This ensures a higher success rate on websites that detect and block requests coming from automated softwares (scrapers included).
To enable Stealth Mode, simply use the stealth_mode parameter to your API request URL and set it to 1. By default, this parameter is set to 0 (off). The cost for using stealth mode is 75 credits per request.

Stealth Mode Integration Examples

cURL
NodeJS
Python
PHP
Go
Java
.NET
Ruby
