FrannersQ: You recommend using a proxy service when running Facebook and Instagram Spices and link to https://luminati.
io/proxy-networks/static-residential-ips?affiliate=ref_5cc9787f8fcb5320def326e2 from your site.
How much data would one consume per month if they buy ONE code on this deal and use it daily to the limits listed?
When I see Luminati's recommended "Production" pricing state the monthly commitment being $1K a month that freaks me out!

May 14, 2024A: Hi Sumo-ling 👋
Thank you for asking this question.
We recommend using proxy for Facebook and Instagram automation. There over 50+ automation which does not require a proxy. Also, It's not necessary to use Luminati or ProxyMesh only for proxy, there are many other proxy providers as well and you can find a proxy service near your place. Local proxy providers are the best option.
I would like to mention that we are adding our own inbuilt proxy network so that you don't need to deal with proxies, it will be available in the next few weeks. We will take care of proxy for you internally once that goes live. We also have Desktop app planned, you can see that in our roadmap, which will not require proxy at all for any automation. 🙂
Regarding your last question, if you purchase one code and run Spices, it would process around 50-100 GBs of data every month.
I'd highly recommend getting this deal, once our proxy goes live, this thing will be gone. Do check out our roadmap, we have some great features planned ahead. https://trello.com/b/xntxRZss/texau-transparent-product-roadmap
Let me know if you need more information.
Happy to help always. 🙂🙏
Cheers,

Looking at that affiliate link you provided, it's only $0.60/GB to use and that cover 400,000 unique IPs. Why would that "freak you out"? How many GB of data do you plan to extract?!

A very good point!
This might be a LTD for the automation, but if the proxies will cost you a fortune this will become a very expensive product to actually use, because you have to pay monthly for proxies.
Doesn't the TexAu team have a cost-effective solution for this?
Luminati was one that they linked to, so I clicked to see their pricing and want to know from TexAu what I should expect to shell out because Luminati's pricing goes up to $6k a month! That's for high volume, but I have no idea what kind of data volume I could possibly use so I asked the question - if I use 1 code to the max what data and price range am I looking at falling into. It could be a deal killer.
if inbuilt proxy is on the case, then I am sold rifght now!
you mean inbuilt proxy ? included in the ltd deal ?
Hi,
We are working on the inbuilt proxy feature and it will be sold as a separate ADD-ON on a pay as you go basis. Again proxies are very costly and we can offer proxy in this deal at such low price. Hope this is understandable. 🙂
Cheers,

Will the desktop version allow my own proxies?
I'm confused. You said your software will eventually have proxies built in for a fee, but you also said once the desktop version shows up, you won't need a proxy.
I'd rather not have an additional fee, but I also don't want to get banned. Can you clarify about not needing a proxy in the future?

1. Do you have a list of what proxies are compatible/recommended until your inbuilt system works?
2. Will the upcoming inbuilt proxy be included in this LTD?
3. If not, what will the monthly/annual cost be?
4. Will the desktop version be included w/ this LTD?
5. If not, what will the monthly/annual cost of the desktop app be?
6. Will the inbuilt proxy be included inside the desktop app? (you just state it won't be needed) Or, would you still need to have the inbuilt proxy in addition to the desktop app?
7. I see a "miniCRM" is included. Will there be integrations w/ outside CRMs? Didn't see this in roadmap.
Thanks!
