Switching scraping APIs is cheap to try and expensive to get wrong. The cheap part is a small paid test on your own target. The expensive part is choosing on a homepage. This page is about doing the first thing before the second.
Everything we can stand behind
MMOAPI trades at mmoapi.com. They compete with us as a scraping API.
We have no verified current rate for MMOAPI on file. Printing a guess would make this page worse than useless, so the price row below is empty and the reading list is not.
The four figures worth copying down are the rate without a commitment, the smallest purchase allowed, what happens to unspent balance, and whether a failed request still costs money.
MMOAPI in its own words
On 9 September 2026 the site introduced itself as "Automation tools for MMO - MMOAPI.COM". The one-paragraph pitch on their own page: "You need a tool to speed up your MMO work? Check out our great tools for automation, web proxy, content spinner, keyword checker, seo optimization and more."
The rest of what the page puts in writing:
We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
All of the above is their copy, not our finding. A dated quotation is the weakest kind of evidence that is still evidence.
Age, and why it matters here
The domain was registered on 9 August 2017, through Cloudflare, Inc, which makes it about 9 years old. The lookup behind those dates ran on 9 September 2026. As things stand the domain is held to 9 August 2027.
This proves nothing about the product. It is a cheap check against the one failure mode that costs buyers real money in this market, which is paying a provider that will not exist in six months.
Their published surface
We crawled 180 pages of their site and found 27 blog pages.
The number is not a compliment or a criticism. It describes how much of their effort goes into being found, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a marketing claim against a measurement.
How recently the site moved
Our crawl of their site found 180 pages carrying a date, 27 of them articles. The oldest is from September 2017 and the newest from August 2026. 153 of them carry a date inside the last twelve months.
Read that as a liveness check rather than a review. It says the lights are on, and nothing about whether the proxies work on your target.
The questions behind the numbers
The comparison that is not a comparison
Residential is normally billed per gigabyte, datacenter and ISP per address, mobile per day or per port. Setting one against another produces a number that means nothing. Convert both sides into the unit your own workload consumes.
What a blocked response costs you
On a hard target, failures are the majority of your traffic. Whether those failures are billed decides the real cost, and the clause covering it is rarely on the pricing page.
Concurrency limits decide throughput
A plan with generous traffic and a low thread limit is a slow plan. Find both numbers before you size anything, because the smaller of the two is your actual ceiling.
The comparison, honestly framed
Six questions, both answers, and an honest blank where we do not hold a current figure:
| Question to ask | MMOAPI | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | None |
| Identity checks | Read their current terms | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Check the current terms, this one moves | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Their terms page answers this | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
Six rows is enough. Longer comparison tables in this market are usually padded with features nobody chooses on, which makes them look thorough and read as noise.
The test that beats this page
It is a small amount of money for an answer that is actually about your target.
- Take the smallest paid unit each provider will sell you. A free trial works for a first pass, though trials sometimes ride better pools than paid plans do.
- Fire the same batch through both on one afternoon. Different days are different conditions, and that ruins the comparison.
- Track the success rate and the bandwidth. A cheap gigabyte that fails half the time is not cheap.
- Run a sample of the addresses through an independent lookup, because advertised geography and actual geography differ more often than the market admits.
- Choose on the measurement, not the marketing, and expect the answer to change within a year.
The rest of the shortlist
Buyers comparing this name usually have two or three of these open in other tabs:
- ScrapingDog alternatives
- Scrapoxy alternatives
- Value SERP alternatives
- Anti-Captcha alternatives
- Coresignal alternatives
- Crustdata alternatives
Where we fit
The offer, stated once: residential from $0.44 per GB, pay per gigabyte, no subscription, balance does not expire, and free tools that stay usable without an account. Everything above this paragraph applies whether or not you choose us.
