Stealth Mode applies advanced evasion techniques to bypass sophisticated anti-bot systems. Use it when targeting sites with strong protection mechanisms. Common uses:
  • Protected sites: e-commerce, social media, and sites with advanced bot detection.
  • Anti-fingerprinting: mimic real browser behavior and characteristics.
  • Higher success rates: bypass CAPTCHAs and challenge pages automatically.

Parameters

driver
string
default:"vx6"
Choose which extraction engine to use. Different drivers offer different levels of stealth and capabilities.Available drivers:
  • vx6 - No rendering (fastest, cheapest)
    • Plain HTTP requests without JavaScript
    • Best for static pages and APIs
    • No bot protection evasion
    • Perfect for high-volume simple scraping
  • vx8 - Basic headless browser
    • Executes JavaScript in headless mode
    • Good for most dynamic sites
    • Basic anti-detection
    • Balanced speed and capability
  • vx8-pro - Headful browser with better stealth
    • Runs a visible browser (headful mode)
    • More human-like behavior
    • Better for sites with moderate protection
    • Slower but more realistic
  • vx10 - Advanced stealth headless
    • Advanced anti-bot evasion techniques
    • Mimics real browser fingerprints
    • Best for protected sites without needing headful
    • Good balance of stealth and speed
  • vx10-pro - Maximum stealth headful (highest protection)
    • Full visible browser with maximum realism
    • Bypasses sophisticated anti-bot systems
    • Best for heavily protected sites
    • Slowest but most effective
Choosing the right driver:
  • Start with the simplest driver that works
  • Only upgrade if you get blocked
  • Higher drivers cost more but have better success rates
Auto-selection: When render: true without specifying a driver, Nimble automatically picks the optimal driver based on the target site.
Example:
"driver": "vx10"
Example (maximum stealth):
"driver": "vx10-pro"

Usage

Fast Non Rendered request

This request uses the vx6 driver for fast extraction without JS rendering
from nimble_python import Nimble

nimble = Nimble(api_key="YOUR-API-KEY")

result = nimble.extract(
    url="https://www.example.com",
    driver="vx6",
)

print(result)
When setting render:false , the driver is automatically set to vx6

Advanced Stealth with vx10-pro

For maximum protection against the most sophisticated anti-bot systems, use vx10-pro.
from nimble_python import Nimble

nimble = Nimble(api_key="YOUR-API-KEY")

result = nimble.extract(
    url="https://heavily-protected-site.com",
    driver="vx10-pro",
)

print(result)
When setting render:true,Nimble automatically selects the optimal driver (vx8 / vx8-pro / vx10 / vx10-pro) based on the target domain’s anti-bot technology
