Has Anyone Found a Reliable Proxy Provider for AI Data Collection? Here's What Worked for Me

[Kerry]

I've been building a few AI data collection projects recently, including web scraping, market research, and testing AI agents. One of the biggest challenges wasn't writing the scraper—it was finding proxy infrastructure that stayed stable over time.

After trying several providers, I recently started using Helodata, and so far the experience has been surprisingly solid, especially considering the price.

A few things I've liked:

Large residential IP pool (80M+ IPs)

Coverage in 195+ countries

Residential, ISP, Mobile, and Datacenter proxies available

Easy API integration with a clean dashboard

Stable connections and good success rates

Responsive support whenever I had questions

For anyone working on AI training, LLM data collection, ad verification, price monitoring, or general web scraping, it might be worth checking out.

I'm still testing it on larger workloads, but my initial experience has been positive enough that I wanted to share it here in case it helps someone else.

If anyone has experience with other proxy providers, I'd love to hear your recommendations as well.

Happy scraping!
