Decodo is the Source ecosystem’s mid-market driver: a web data platform designed for teams that need to build, test, and launch effectively. Because it is self-service and ready to use immediately, teams can get started right away and deliver rapid time-to-value without enterprise overhead.
Today, Decodo supports over 135,000 users worldwide, primarily developers, technical teams, and growing businesses working on AI applications, data pipelines, and web scraping projects. The platform provides a pool of more than 125 million ethically sourced IPs, from residential and datacenter to mobile, high-speed, and beyond. Additionally, Decodo offers a complete web data collection solution, specialized tools like Video Downloader, Site Unblocker, and a range of free tools.
The path to success
Decodo has developed a web data infrastructure since 2018, initially operating under the name Smartproxy. In April 2025, it finalized a daring step, retiring a reputable name and its instant recognition for 7 years of quality and reliability.
The rebranding, however, is a crucial strategic move and a statement. The name Decodo better reflects the company’s evolution from a proxy provider to a comprehensive data access platform and expert partner guiding businesses through the most complex data access challenges. It also represents Decodo’s unflinching ambitions for the future, grounded in its readiness to adapt to volatile market needs.
Decodo focuses on the mid-market segment, where businesses are growing fast, and teams need reliable data workflows and custom care to support that growth. Thus, it expands the ecosystem’s ability to cover the data needs of these teams while providing enterprise-level care and customization. Helping businesses unlock their full potential, Decodo’s solutions scale seamlessly and keep pace with their growth.
Where speed meets standards
Decodo is built on the principle that access can be both responsible and hassle-free for the user without requiring enterprise budgets.

Simplicity at the front end is not the same as shortcuts behind it. The ethical sourcing that underpins Decodo's IP pool is not a feature a mid-market customer has to evaluate, negotiate, or pay a premium for – it arrives as the default, the same standard an enterprise buyer would spend weeks auditing. That is the quiet work of a shared foundation. A small team gets infrastructure vetted to a level it could never have demanded on its own, and never has to think about it.
While maintaining high standards, Decodo prioritizes time-to-value over raw capability. The platform also offers an MCP Server, an n8n node, LangChain and OpenClaw integrations, official SDKs for TypeScript, Python, and Go, a CLI, Agent Skills, and over 100 ready-to-use scraping templates. For teams needing swift data access, the difference between an out-of-the-box solution and one requiring lengthy integration can determine project success.
Decodo’s clients are technical teams building with AI agents and data pipelines that need reliable, live web access. Serving this group effectively requires simplifying choices rather than adding complexity.
This approach also shapes Decodo’s internal operations. As a result, the organization emphasizes fast execution, continuous experimentation, and quick technical iteration, always prioritizing direct user value. Engineering-focused teams operate autonomously with minimal hierarchy. While Decodo has moved beyond its startup phase, it remains agile, reflecting the needs of the fast-moving teams it serves.
Bringing high-quality web access to the broader market
Responsible access to public web data is increasingly essential for innovation and competition. Both thrive only when growing businesses and small teams can access these resources. The products of companies operating under tight timelines and budgets can be as impactful as those from major AI developers.
When the right data is available, these companies can launch and scale fast. Decodo provides the necessary web data access capabilities to these businesses and can adapt at the pace of their growth.
For businesses integrating AI agents with live web data, that pace can be extremely intensive. As AI-driven use cases increase demand for large-scale, real-world data, the potential for innovation depends on making these capabilities accessible to AI startups with great ideas.
This is what Decodo does by maintaining high standards while lowering barriers to entry. Its role in the Source ecosystem is to power growth and inventiveness by enabling more companies to access web data and build on it relentlessly.
