Hi Easy News Press Agency Online,
Following a $130 million investment from Warburg Pincus at a $3.6 billion valuation, many people kept asking Oxylabs: What’s next?
Today, we’re officially launching our multi-brand ecosystemSource, a unified voice of more than 5 independent companies. This will enable us to further defend responsible access to public web data that powers the digital economy and many institutions working for the public good.
Source is bringing together specialized, independent brands across the entire data lifecycle, including Oxylabs (enterprise/AI labs), Decodo (mid-market), ScrapingBee (developer APIs), Webshare (prosumers), and Honeygain (consumer bandwidth).
What this means:
● Empirical proof of the AI agent boom. Monthly web traffic flowing through the group has surged nearly 4-fold over the past year,driven directly by AI agents and frontier AI products demanding real-time web grounding to avoid hallucinations.
● Massive European infrastructure footprint: Source’s distributed systems now process 1.5 million requests per second.
● Building dedicated AI Search APIs. Beyond traditional proxy networks, the ecosystem is expanding its indexing capabilities to build dedicated Web Search APIs for AI agents.
● The European sovereignty story: this is proof that deep-tech plumbing powering Silicon Valley’s frontier AI labs can be built profitably out of Central and Eastern Europe with a global team of over 800 (including 350+ engineers) with plans to expand even further.

Source Launches as the Ecosystem for the Next Era of Web Data Access
From startups and AI labs to Fortune 500 companies and governments, the Source ecosystem provides the data infrastructure the world relies on.
VILNIUS, Lithuania, Oct. 13, 2026– Source launches today as a new group of leading web intelligence companies that enables enterprises, startups, AI labs, governments and nonprofits access public web data, build new products and make better decisions. The launch comes as next-generation search, AI agents and frontier AI products drive a four-fold increase in demand across Source companies in the last year.
Source brings together Oxylabs, alongside Decodo, Webshare, Honeygain, and ScrapingBee. This ecosystem originated with Oxylabs more than a decade ago and has since expanded through product development, acquisitions, and investments, reaching a $3.6 billion valuation in a fundraise led by Warburg Pincus this year. While these brands continue to operate independently, this collective scale will power further R&D and strategic expansion to meet the rising global demand for AI-ready data infrastructure.
Source companies support a wide range of critical work: powering the live search and data AI agents need to operate at scale, supplying market data for trading decisions and market intelligence at Fortune 500 companies, and helping cybersecurity firms protect businesses and critical infrastructure. In the public sector, governments use their data to detect illegal content and online fraud, while nonprofits rely on it to monitor and expose disinformation online.
“The modern world runs on data, and autonomous agents are now speeding up innovation across every sector,” said Vytautas Savickas, CEO of Source. “For these systems to work, responsible access to public web data is no longer just a technical tool. It is the core infrastructure for the next wave of progress.”
Innovation across Source is driven by a growing global team of 800 people across Europe, the United States, and Asia, including more than 350 developers and engineers. The ecosystem has produced more than 180 patents and 215 trademarks.
“Source gives a clear identity to an ecosystem that has grown well beyond a single company story,” said Savickas. “It gives us a stronger foundation, a unified voice in defending responsible access to public web data, and a better way to support the companies across our ecosystem as we continue to grow.”
