Full changelog
Add stealth proxy option for the most heavily protected sites with advanced anti-bot detection.
The proxy parameter on every scraping tool now accepts datacenter, residential, or stealth (was datacenter or residential only). The same option is also available via the WEBSCRAPING_AI_DEFAULT_PROXY_TYPE environment variable. Stealth and residential requests cost more than datacenter — see the pricing page for details.
