What we think after testing Hexomatic
Editorial review by Maya Cortez · last updated Aug 24, 2026
<h3>What Hexomatic is</h3> <p><strong>Hexomatic is a no-code scraping and work-automation platform, not a proxy vendor.</strong> Operated by Hexact, Inc., it combines a point-and-click scraping recipe builder with a library of ready-made automations that chain into scheduled workflows on the vendor cloud. The framing is data plus labor: extract structured data from websites, search engines and directories, then push it through enrichment, translation, validation or notification steps without writing code. Proxies are a supporting detail, with datacentre IP rotation in the base plans and residential proxies as a paid extra.</p>
<h3>Who it is for</h3> <p>The audience is marketing, sales and research teams without engineering support: lead generation, competitor monitoring, SEO research and directory harvesting. Anyone comfortable writing a scraper will find the credit model and workflow abstraction constraining, and developers are effectively an upsell, since API access exists only on the higher tier.</p>
<h3>Plans and pricing</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Silver, $49/month</strong> or $490 per year ($40.83/month): 4,500 monthly renewing automation credits, 10 simultaneous workflows, scheduling, unlimited custom scraping recipes and datacentre IP rotation, billed after a <strong>7-day free trial</strong>.</li> <li><strong>Gold, $99/month</strong> or $990 per year ($82.50/month): adds 10,000 credits, unlimited simultaneous workflows and <strong>API access</strong>.</li> <li><strong>Enterprise, custom quote:</strong> adds onboarding, team training, campaign management, a dedicated strategy consultant and custom templates.</li> <li><strong>Premium credit add-on, from $999/month:</strong> unlocks ChatGPT, DeepL and Google Translate, Google and Google Maps data, email enrichment, <strong>residential proxies</strong>, Amazon data and SEO backlink data.</li> </ul> <p>Annual billing is marketed as two months free.</p>
<h3>The automation library</h3> <p>The library is the reason to buy. Hexomatic advertises <strong>100+ automations</strong>: roughly 35 in scraping, 27 actions, 10 AI services, 7 data transformations, 4 research and 4 SEO, plus smaller sets for audits, integrations, notifications, translation and validation. The AI set covers ChatGPT, vision, sentiment analysis, OCR and transcription. Output routes to Google Sheets and Drive or out through webhooks, with Slack and Telegram notifications, and scheduling makes any of it recurring.</p>
<h3>Honest limitations</h3> <ul> <li><strong>The premium add-on is a cliff, not a step.</strong> Residential proxies and the AI and enrichment automations sit behind a separate subscription starting at $999/month, roughly ten times Gold, and the base tiers include only datacentre IP rotation.</li> <li><strong>Credit consumption is not published.</strong> The pricing page states how many credits each plan includes but not what individual automations cost to run, so real monthly capacity cannot be modeled before subscribing.</li> <li><strong>API access is gated.</strong> Programmatic use requires Gold, doubling the entry price for anyone who wants to integrate rather than click.</li> <li><strong>Pricing renders client-side.</strong> The plan table loads by JavaScript, so anything reading the static page, including some AI crawlers, sees no prices at all.</li> <li><strong>Sparse corporate disclosure.</strong> Beyond the Hexact, Inc. name there is no founding year, headquarters, headcount or team page, and the 150,000+ businesses figure is an unsubstantiated vendor claim.</li> <li><strong>Not a proxy network.</strong> No pool size, country list, sticky sessions, protocol choice or geo-targeting controls are published, because none of that is the product.</li> <li><strong>Support is email.</strong> One address is advertised, with no stated hours, SLA or live channel.</li> </ul>
<h3>Verdict</h3> <p>Hexomatic is a capable no-code layer over scraping and routine online work, fairly priced at $49 to $99 a month for teams that would otherwise pay a contractor to do the same tasks by hand. The honest caveat is that the interesting half of the catalog, meaning AI processing, contact enrichment and residential proxies, sits behind an add-on costing an order of magnitude more than the plan. Buyers should map workflows to the base automations first and confirm credit consumption before committing. It belongs on a <em>no-code data collection</em> shortlist, not on a shortlist of proxy providers.</p>
