Powering AI-Ready Web Data at Global Scale

Modern businesses run on data. From tracking competitor pricing and monitoring search engine rankings to building AI training datasets and validating advertising placements, organizations across every industry need massive volumes of publicly available web data to make informed decisions, stay competitive, and innovate. The challenge is that collecting this data at scale has become extraordinarily difficult. Websites deploy increasingly sophisticated anti-bot systems that combine IP intelligence, browser fingerprinting, behavioral analysis, JavaScript challenges, and CAPTCHAs, making reliable, large-scale data extraction a persistent engineering burden.

Decodo (formerly Smartproxy) is a global web data infrastructure provider founded in 2018 in Vilnius, Lithuania. What began as a residential proxy service has evolved into a comprehensive data access platform serving over 135,000 clients worldwide, from solo entrepreneurs and fast-growing startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.

At the center of this platform is the Decodo Web Scraping API, the company’s most powerful product for businesses that need structured, actionable web data at scale. The Web Scraping API is a fully managed data extraction solution that transforms any public website into a reliable, structured data source with just a single click. It integrates ethically-sourced rotating IPs, headless browser orchestration, CAPTCHA handling, TLS fingerprinting, and session management into one unified endpoint, eliminating the need for businesses to build or maintain their own scraping infrastructure, which is often costly and requires additional human resources.

The API supports over 100 ready-made scraping templates optimized for major platforms, delivers structured output, including AI-optimized Markdown, and integrates natively with modern AI and automation tools such as LangChain, n8n, and OpenClaw. Whether a business needs to monitor eCommerce marketplaces, aggregate market intelligence, fuel AI pipelines with training data, or conduct SEO research, the Web Scraping API makes large-scale public data collection operationally simple, reliable, and cost-efficient, turning what was once a persistent technical challenge into a straightforward service.
