Aluvia Infrastructure

When AI agents connect to the web directly from cloud IPs, they are often treated as bots and quickly throttled or blocked. Aluvia sits in front of your agents as a mobile proxy layer: your agents send HTTP(S) requests to our endpoints, and we route that traffic through real US mobile devices on Tier-1 carrier networks.

This page gives a high-level overview of that infrastructure and explains what it means for you when you build on top of Aluvia.

Cloud proxies​

Aluvia exposes its infrastructure through Aluiva Gateway Nodes which are clod-hosted proxy endpoints.

From your agent’s point of view:

  • You configure an HTTP or HTTPS proxy (host, port, and authentication).
  • Your agent sends requests to that proxy instead of directly to the target site.
  • The proxy forwards requests through Aluvia’s mobile network and returns responses.

Under the hood, each request:

  • Is forwarded through one of Aluvia’s mobile connections to the target site.
  • Appears to originate from a US mobile IP address (e.g., T-Mobile or AT&T), not from your servers.

You do not need to manage IP pools, proxy servers, or devices. You simply integrate with a standard proxy interface, and Aluvia takes care of the rest.

Managed cloud infrastructure​

Aluvia operates and manages all of the infrastructure required to run a large mobile proxy network:

  • Proxy servers that accept incoming connections from your agents.
  • Routing logic that decides which mobile connection to use for each request.
  • Health checks and monitoring to detect slow or failing connections.
  • Automatic failover when individual devices, links, or paths become unhealthy.
  • Capacity management to ensure enough mobile IPs are available for active workloads.

As a user, you get:

  • A single, stable integration point (Aluvia Gateway Nodes).
  • A network that is continuously observed and tuned by Aluvia.
  • Automatic handling of transient failures and degraded routes.

You do not need to build:

  • Your own pool of devices or SIMs.
  • Custom routing and failover logic.
  • Monitoring systems specific to carrier behavior.

Aluvia treats connectivity as a managed service, so your team can focus on agent behavior instead of networking.

Massively scalable and elastic​

Aluvia’s infrastructure is built to support highly concurrent, bursty, and long-running workloads typical of AI agents and automation.

Scale characteristics​

  • Millions of mobile IP addresses available across the US.
  • 30+ US cities, providing geographic diversity.
  • Designed to proxy terabytes of traffic.
  • Support for thousands of concurrent connections across many agents.

Elastic behavior​

  • You can scale up usage as your agents handle more tasks or users.
  • You can scale down without managing or decommissioning any infrastructure.
  • There are no hard connection limits at the network layer; constraints are primarily commercial (plan/billing) rather than technical.

The goal is to abstract away infrastructure. Configure your agents, and Aluvia’s backend grows or contracts with your workload.

Ethically sourced mobile IPs and vertically integrated infrastructure​

Where mobile IPs come from—and how they are managed—has implications for reliability, compliance, and risk.

Aluvia’s approach is vertically integrated and ethically sourced:

  • Real devices, real SIMs
    All mobile IPs are sourced from devices owned and operated by Aluvia, using SIM cards purchased directly from Tier-1 US carriers (such as T-Mobile and AT&T).

  • No third-party “user-powered” networks
    Aluvia does not rely on:

    • Malware-infected phones,
    • Browser extensions that resell user bandwidth,
    • Untrusted or opaque IP suppliers.

  • End-to-end control
    Aluvia controls:

    • The hardware (devices),
    • The mobile subscriptions (SIMs and carrier relationships),
    • The cloud routing and proxy software.

This vertical integration provides:

  • Clear provenance for IPs (you know where they come from).
  • Less exposure to the legal and reputational risks seen with some proxy networks.
  • The ability to tune performance, reliability, and behavior specifically for AI and automation workloads.

Performance and scale characteristics​

Aluvia’s infrastructure is tuned for consistent, production-grade performance.

Network​

  • 5G/4G/LTE mobile connectivity.
  • US-only mobile IPs, suitable for US-targeted workloads.
  • IPs from Tier-1 carriers, including T-Mobile and AT&T.

Throughput and reliability​

  • 10 Mbps minimum connection speed (typical speeds are higher and depend on carrier conditions).
  • Designed for 99.9% uptime at the service level.
  • Continuous monitoring with automated routing away from degraded paths.

These characteristics are designed to give your agents:

  • Stable, predictable access to web resources.
  • Enough capacity to run many concurrent tasks.
  • A network profile that behaves like real US mobile traffic, rather than a small number of cloud IPs.

What this means for your integration​

In practice:

  • You configure an HTTP(S) proxy endpoint in your agent code or scraping framework.
  • Your agents send requests as they normally would.
  • Aluvia’s infrastructure:
    • Routes them over real US mobile devices,
    • Manages scale, health, and performance in the background.

You do not need to:

  • Operate proxy servers.
  • Source or rotate IP addresses.
  • Manage mobile devices, SIMs, or carrier relationships.

Aluvia provides connectivity as a service, so your agents can rely on a mobile-grade network foundation while you focus on building product logic and higher-level behavior.
