Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
MCP Server Tools (40)
virtualsms_list_proxy_catalog
List available proxy pool types, countries, and price-per-GB. Use this before buying proxy traffic.
virtualsms_list_proxies
List all proxies on your account with remaining GB and login credentials. Returns proxy_id values for use with get_proxy_usage, rotate_proxy, set_proxy_targeting, and generate_proxy_endpoint.
virtualsms_buy_proxy
Purchase proxy traffic (GB) for a selected pool type. Returns proxy credentials and remaining balance. country_code here is only a soft preference for provisioning. For actual per-connection targeting (country/state/city/zip/asn) or a ready-to-use connection string, use virtualsms_generate_proxy_endpoint after buying. To persist a default targeting on the sub-user, use virtualsms_set_proxy_targeting.
virtualsms_rotate_proxy
Request a fresh IP for an existing proxy. Useful when an endpoint flags the current exit IP.
virtualsms_get_proxy_usage
