Residential Proxy Detection.
Expose automation and abuse hidden behind residential proxies.
Spur Residential Proxy Detection helps to prevent automation, scraping, and fraud masked by real household IPs.
The Spur platform identifies traffic originating from residential proxy networks by analyzing service fingerprints, ASN ownership, and behavioral indicators. It continuously maps proxy exit nodes across hundreds of millions of anonymized IPs and 1,000+ proxy and VPN services.
Residential proxies enable automation and fraud to blend in with legitimate home traffic. By enriching IPs with verified infrastructure and behavioral context, Spur enables teams to detect account abuse, scraping, and automation without adding friction for real users.
