Aethyn residential proxies
built for scraping and automation.
Explore Aethyn features for rotating residential proxies, sticky sessions, targeting, SOCKS5 support, live usage metering, wallet-first billing, and production visibility.
Feature overview
Everything needed to run residential proxies in production.
Aethyn combines proxy routing, targeting, metering, billing, and dashboard visibility in one workflow so teams can scale scraping and automation without rebuilding proxy operations.
Country, city, and ISP targeting
Use country targeting on Premium Residential, then move selected jobs to Elite Residential when city-level or ISP-level routing matters.
HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 support
Use one gateway and one credential format across HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5, scraping frameworks, browsers, and custom automation pipelines.
Live usage accounting
Every byte is metered and surfaced in the dashboard so finance and engineering teams can track spend as jobs run.
Wallet billing
Top up once and traffic drains automatically. Subscription renewals are charged from your wallet balance, with no surprise holds or minimum spend.
Ethically sourced network
Capacity comes from KYC-verified partners and opt-in SDK peers with consent and revocation controls.
Core capabilities
Proxy features organized around real workflows.
Use the same account and dashboard for everyday Premium workloads, harder Elite targets, live reporting, renewals, and integration across common scraping stacks.
Proxy pools
Premium Residential for broad high-volume workloads, Elite Residential for higher-trust exits on demanding targets.
Session format
Country, pool, session id, and lifetime are encoded in the same standard proxy username format.
Dashboard visibility
Track request volume, success rate per plan, wallet runway, renewal schedule, refund history, and recent activity.
Automation support
Run Aethyn from curl, Python, Node.js, Go, Playwright, browsers, and scraping infrastructure without a required SDK.
Operational alerts
Use webhooks for low balance, renewal failure, usage thresholds, and subscription state changes.
Billing modes
Choose subscriptions for predictable monthly traffic or pay-as-you-go bandwidth for flexible spikes.
