The honestdirectory of anti‑detectbrowsers.

An anti-detect (or fingerprint-masking) browser is a Chromium or Firefox build that lets you run multiple browser profiles, each with its own complete fingerprint — Canvas, WebGL, audio, fonts, timezone, and more. Sites see each profile as a different device on a different network, which is essential for managing multiple accounts on platforms like Amazon, Facebook Ads, or TikTok Shop.

Yes, almost always. The browser handles fingerprints; the proxy handles the IP address. Without a proxy, every profile would share your real IP — defeating the purpose of separating accounts. Residential and mobile proxies pair best because their IPs look organic to detection systems.

The software itself is legal in most jurisdictions. What matters is what you do with it. Managing multiple legitimate business accounts, doing privacy research, or running QA across regions — all fine. Violating a platform's Terms of Service is a contract issue, not a criminal one, but can still get accounts suspended.

Local browsers run profiles on your machine (faster, you own the data). Cloud browsers run profiles on the vendor's servers and stream them to your device (portable, slower, vendor sees your activity). Some tools — AdsPower, GoLogin, Hidemium — offer both modes per profile.

Depends on the workflow. A solo seller might run 5–20 profiles for marketplace alts; a paid-traffic team can use 200+ to rotate ad accounts. Start with the lowest tier that fits — most paid plans let you upgrade in-app without losing existing profiles.

If you pick a browser with cloud sync (AdsPower, GoLogin, Hidemium, Multilogin), yes — your profiles encrypted-sync across devices. Local-only browsers like Octo or VMLogin require manual export/import.

AdsPower, GoLogin, Hidemium, Incogniton, Dolphin Anty, and Undetectable all ship working free tiers (3–10 profiles, sometimes unlimited in the case of Undetectable). The rest offer paid trials only.

Every browser in this directory exposes a local API for Selenium, Puppeteer, or Playwright. The integration depth varies — Multilogin and Octo have the most polished SDKs; others rely on documented websocket protocols.
