Crawled pages

This is a bounded Scout crawl. Core Web Vitals and Lighthouse scores are not claimed unless a dedicated performance audit is connected.

Modeled acquisition channels

First-party connections

No first-party Search Console or Analytics numbers are shown until the site owner authorizes the corresponding Google account. Scout traffic model values above are modeled estimates, not private analytics totals.

The collected pages do not mention any competitors by name. Evidence gaps include lack of detailed pricing for proxy plans (only Web Data API pricing is fully documented), no specific security certifications, and no uptime or status page information. Open questions remain about the exact capabilities of the AI Parser and Site Unblocker, as well as the full range of integrations.

This report is based on 15 collected pages from decodo.com, including the About page, Product Hub, SERP Scraper API page, billing FAQs, and the What's My IP tool. The evidence catalog includes 180 items, but many are cookie descriptions and blog post fragments that were not used. The external proof search was enabled but only one request was made, and no external reviews or ratings were collected. Pricing information is from the Web Data API pricing page, which is authoritative for that product; proxy pricing is not fully detailed in the collected pages.
