PocketProxy's answer

Most mobile proxy services rent you access to a shared pool of IPs they own. PocketProxy inverts that: it's software that turns hardware you already own — ordinary Android phones with ordinary SIM cards — into dedicated mobile proxies you control end to end.

That changes the economics. There's no per-GB metering and no pool you share with strangers, because the IP belongs to your phone on your carrier plan. Pricing is a flat fee per device.

It also means the same system works whether you need one proxy for your own accounts or a hundred for a proxy business. The built-in marketplace lets operators rent out spare capacity, so idle devices earn instead of sitting.

PocketProxy's answer

Two groups.

First, proxy operators and resellers — people running fleets of phones as a business, whether that's five devices or several hundred. They need provisioning, rotation control, per-customer credentials, usage limits and billing, and a way to sell capacity they aren't using.

Second, teams and individuals who need dedicated mobile IPs for their own work: managing multiple social accounts without bans, web scraping, ad verification, and testing apps from real carrier networks.

The common thread is people who want a mobile IP they control rather than one they rent by the gigabyte.

PocketProxy's answer

Against pool providers (Oxylabs, SOAX, IPRoyal, Decodo): you get a dedicated IP on hardware you control, with no per-GB billing and no sharing an IP with whoever else is in the pool that hour.

Against hardware-locked systems like Proxidize: no proprietary modems to buy. Any Android phone works, including old handsets you already have. Against comparable Android-based software: flat per-device pricing from $4 per 30 days, SOCKS5-UDP alongside HTTP and SOCKS5, downloadable OpenVPN configs,granular per-permission device sharing for teams, and a marketplace for renting out spare devices.

• Go — proxy relay servers, VPN tunnel, SOCKS5/HTTP handling, NAT routing
• Kotlin — the Android app that runs on each proxy device
• Next.js and React — customer dashboard and website
• PostgreSQL — device, connection and usage data
• OpenVPN and WireGuard — customer VPN access
• Docker Compose — deployment across relay servers
• Linode and Cloudflare — infrastructure and edge
