Free Tier Value
This free tier is perpetual and genuinely usable, but it is tightly capped at 25MB with one proxy and 10 connections, so it sits well below the cheapest paid option. Compared with the Basic plan at about $14/month, it delivers roughly a small slice of that capacity and feature set, so a fair buyer-side estimate is about $3/month. A credit card is not called out as unnecessary, so signup friction remains a modest downside.
What's included in the free tier
- Totally free forever Developer plan with $0 monthly cost.
