When Bright Data might be a better fit

Bright Data is the right choice for enterprise teams that need massive-scale web scraping infrastructure, pre-built datasets, or a 72M+ IP proxy network. It's a platform, not an API.

If you're building AI agents that need structured search results from Google, YouTube, and Amazon, Scavio is significantly simpler and more affordable. One API key, structured JSON, and a free tier to start.
