# Can Thordata replace Bright Data video datasets?

In most scenarios, yes. Thordata offers comparable public-source video data and collection capability with a sample-first process and scope-based pricing, so you can start without signing an enterprise contract; Bright Data and Oxylabs hold the advantage in compliance paperwork and enterprise delivery, which matters in regulated industries. If you only need structured video metadata and training corpora, Thordata's entry cost is notably lower — see the [official site](https://www.thordata.com/?ls=community\&lk=proxyip).
