Our mission

Why PROXYDECK exists and what we want to change in the proxy services industry.

The proxy services industry has grown from a niche developer market into a multi-billion-dollar one. Along the way, problems multiplied: marketing numbers (everyone claims 99.9% success rate), hidden prices (landing-page rates that don't match checkout), KYC traps (signed up — got blocked), paid reviews ("independent expert" with a 30% referral link).

We built PROXYDECK as a counterweight to that: a single-source-of-truth for teams and indie developers who want to make a deliberate decision about proxies without 5 hours of Googling each time.

Every review is based on our own tests. Every price is verified at checkout, not on the landing. Every con is published independently of whether the provider pays us a commission. Editor's Pick happens only after 6+ months of testing.

Team

PROXYDECK is run by 4 specialists across different industry domains. We don't publish personal names for operational-security reasons — part of the team tests services under different identities.

Our principles

Four rules we don't break, regardless of partner pressure.

Independence

Affiliate commission doesn't affect the score. Editor's Pick comes from test results, not partnership rates. We also test providers without affiliate programs.

Transparency

Testing methodology is public. Category weights in the scoring formula are visible. Affiliate disclosure on every provider page. Reproducibility — we're ready to share raw test data on request.

Honest cons

Pros and cons in equal proportions. We document real limits even for top partners: strict KYC, dirty IP pool, weak support, hidden pricing. We won't take $X thousand to bury a con.

Data freshness

Performance metrics — weekly. Pricing and policy — monthly. Quarterly deep-dive: full re-test of the top-10. Last-update date is visible on every review page.
