Oxylabs Reaches $3.6B Valuation With Warburg Pincus Investment

Oxylabs has received a $130 million investment from Warburg Pincus, valuing the data infrastructure company at approximately $3.6 billion and marking its first outside investment since it was founded in 2015.

The investment is being made through the Warburg Pincus Capital Solutions Founders Fund and positions Oxylabs for its next stage of expansion as demand for real-time public web data accelerates across artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, e-commerce and financial services.

Founded in Lithuania, Oxylabs has grown from a premium proxy provider into a global data infrastructure platform. The company says it now records $350 million in annual recurring revenue and is trusted by more than 350,000 technology teams worldwide.

The deal reflects growing investor interest in the infrastructure layer behind artificial intelligence. As AI systems evolve from static search and model training toward autonomous agents that can browse, retrieve and act on live web information, companies that provide reliable access to real-time data are becoming increasingly important.

Oxylabs CEO Vytautas Savickas said the next generation of AI will not be powered by static indexes that capture “yesterday’s internet,” but by live infrastructure capable of grounding AI systems in real-time knowledge.

Warburg Pincus said the investment reflects confidence in Oxylabs’ technology and market position.

“Oxylabs has established itself as a leader in web intelligence through its sophisticated technology and expansive network,” said Allison Ross, Principal, Warburg Pincus. “We are excited to support the Oxylabs team as they continue to expand their offering to help their blue-chip customers access and unlock data-driven insights.”

Oxylabs said the investment will help it extend its competitive advantage and accelerate development of next-generation products and capabilities for AI and agentic applications. The company is also expected to continue building through partnerships and acquisitions, following previous deals for Webshare Software in 2022 and ScrapingBee in 2025.

Compliance and responsible data access remain central to Oxylabs’ positioning. The company co-founded the Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative and points to its Trust Center as part of its broader governance and security framework.

For Oxylabs, the Warburg Pincus backing validates a decade of bootstrapped growth. For the wider AI market, it highlights a less visible but increasingly critical part of the technology stack: the infrastructure that connects AI systems to the live web.
