Methodology and limits
A live Databay API snapshot captured 2026-07-19T13:36:13.201Z returned 590 unique endpoints labelled for United States of America. The retrieved United States of America rows were 224 SOCKS4 (38%), 213 SOCKS5 (36%), 153 HTTP (26%). United States of America checker header classifications were 481 ELITE (82%), 97 TRANSPARENT (16%), 12 ANONYMOUS (2%), with a median checker latency of 2,607 ms and a mean reported uptime of 73.8%. The newest United States of America row-level check in this capture was 2026-07-19T13:34:18Z; the oldest was 2026-07-19T07:54:15Z. These United States of America observations come from a volatile public-relay list and do not promise that the same endpoints will remain reachable. In the United States of America rows, “elite”, “anonymous”, SSL, Google, latency, and uptime are fields reported by the checker for particular probes; they do not prove operator identity, permission, security, residential origin, city accuracy, or suitability for sensitive traffic. Re-query the live United States of America endpoint before every authorized test, validate the exit independently, and never send credentials, personal data, production cookies, or confidential payloads through an unknown relay.
United States QA should record state, city, ZIP code, language, dollar display, sales-tax and delivery state, account, and device settings. A national IP cannot reproduce a specific state, household, or eligible customer. Use a United States of America-geolocated public proxy only as one disposable country-level network-origin sample for an authorized localization, catalog, advertising, search, accessibility, or delivery-message check. For the United States of America comparison, hold the destination URL, timestamp, account, cookies, browser, language, currency, address, and experiment steps constant, then compare with a direct or controlled reference. Stop the United States of America test when the source blocks, challenges, rate-limits, or disallows the workflow. Confirm any consequential United States of America finding through an official API, licensed feed, controlled paid exit, local reviewer, or the source itself before making a product, compliance, pricing, or enforcement decision.

Know when a free proxy stops being enough
Public endpoints are fine for a quick test. Anything that has to keep running needs a network you control.

How to use a free proxy
Most tools accept a proxy as host:port or host:port:username:password. Copy an endpoint from the list and point your client at it.
- Pick an endpointPrefer rows with high uptime and low latency, then click the address to copy it.
- Match the protocolUse an HTTP proxy setting for HTTP and HTTPS rows, a SOCKS setting for SOCKS rows.
- Send a test requestCheck the reported IP before running anything that matters; public endpoints rotate out fast.
curl -x http://IP:PORT https://target.comimport requests
proxies = {
"http": "http://IP:PORT",
"https": "http://IP:PORT",
}
requests.get("https://target.com", proxies=proxies, timeout=(5, 15))Settings > Network > Proxy Configuration
Enter IP, Port, and select HTTP, SOCKS4 or SOCKS5Methodology
How checks work
Candidates are collected from public proxy sources and tested before publication. An IP address and port appear only after the checker records a successful connection.
- Latency
Latency is the round-trip time of the latest successful checker request. Fast is below 500 ms, Medium is 500 to 1,499 ms, and Slow is 1,500 ms or more.
- Uptime
Uptime is the percentage of recorded checks that succeeded over the lifetime of the IP address and port pair.
- Freshness
The pool includes only endpoints with a successful check less than six hours old. The last-checked value remains visible so you can judge freshness, and rows at or beyond the cutoff are excluded. If the pool observation is stale or unavailable, current inventory is withheld.
What did the United States of America proxy API return in this snapshot?
The United States of America capture retrieved 590 unique IP:port endpoints from the country-filtered Databay API. United States of America protocol labels were 224 SOCKS4 (38%), 213 SOCKS5 (36%), 153 HTTP (26%); header classifications were 481 ELITE (82%), 97 TRANSPARENT (16%), 12 ANONYMOUS (2%). The United States of America sample had a median checker latency of 2,607 ms and a mean reported uptime of 73.8%. These United States of America figures are a dated observation, not a live inventory guarantee; use https://databay.com/api/v1/proxy-list?country=US for the current result.
Does a United States of America proxy prove a local user or precise location?
No. The United States of America label is a geolocation observation about an exit address and may be stale or wrong. A United States of America label does not establish a household, operator, consent, city, language, account, delivery address, tax state, device, or eligibility. For important United States of America work, verify the exit and use controlled infrastructure plus a local or primary-source confirmation.
Are these free proxies safe to use?
Do not assume a public proxy is safe. Its operator may inspect or log traffic, and a successful Databay check is not a security review. Use the list only for non-sensitive testing, never for credentials, personal data, payments, or private accounts.
How often is the list updated?
Candidates are checked on a rolling five-minute schedule. Use Last Checked for a specific result. Only endpoints with a successful check less than six hours old are published; older rows are excluded.
What is the difference between HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 proxies?
HTTP forwards plain web requests, while HTTPS-capable HTTP proxies relay TLS with CONNECT. SOCKS4 relays TCP. SOCKS5 can add authentication, remote DNS, and optional UDP support.
How do I get a free proxy from this list?
No signup is required to view the list or enter an address manually. Sign in to copy, select or download proxies. Choose the free option in the popup to continue without a purchase. Use a recently checked row and the matching protocol in your client.
Why do some proxies stop working quickly?
Public endpoints can become overloaded, change configuration, or go offline without notice. A result only describes the latest successful check, so expect failures and use timeouts and retries for testing.
