Antidetect browsers are designed to mask your device's digital fingerprint, making your proxy usage more secure and efficient.

They allow you to:

  • Run multiple sessions or threads at once

  • Rotate IPs without triggering blocks

  • Work with different identities on one device

Each browser profile gets its own cookies, cache, and fingerprint, making it harder for websites to link your activity or detect proxy use.


What's a digital fingerprint?

Websites can collect a lot of data about your device, such as:

  • Device type and model

  • OS, RAM, and processor details

  • Browser version

  • Screen resolution

  • Language and time zone

  • Fonts, WebRTC, WebGL, and GEO location

Antidetect browsers let you customize all of these parameters to create a different identity in each session.

Example: Instead of appearing as a user with a Firefox browser on a 14" HP laptop, you can appear as someone using Chrome on a 15.6" ASUS device.


Why use an antidetect browser with proxies?

Using proxies alone isn't always enough β€” websites can still detect and block you based on your fingerprint.
Antidetect browsers reduce this risk and help you stay under the radar.

They're also easy to use, with interfaces similar to Chrome, Firefox, or Opera.
