Three products are currently live. Use the decision tree below, then click through for details.

## Decision tree

```
Need to look like a regular consumer in country X?
├── Yes (mobile-only content, social platform)   → Mobile proxies        (gateway, type-mob)
├── Yes, residential, IP stable indefinitely     → ISP proxies           (per-IP list, ip:port:user:pass)
└── Yes, residential, rotating IPs               → Residential proxies   (gateway, type-res)
```

If your use case calls for raw datacenter speed, a fully managed Web Unblocker, or a Scraping API that returns structured JSON — those products are **coming soon**. Email <support@helodata.com> to join the waitlist.

## Typical use cases

* **E-commerce price monitoring at scale** → Residential rotating, country-targeted
* **Ad verification across many countries** → Residential, short sticky sessions, city-level when relevant
* **Sneaker / drop monitoring** → ISP for the speed and stable session through checkout
* **Social platform research** → Mobile, long sticky sessions, ASN-pinned to a specific carrier
* **SEO rank tracking** → Residential, country + city targeting, rotating
