Anti-Detect Browser Setup - ProxyScore
High-level guidance on what anti-detect browsers do, where they operate, and important caveats when pairing them with proxies.
What an anti-detect browser does (high level)
Anti-detect browsers are tools that let you run browser instances with configurable fingerprints and isolated storage. They operate at higher layers than a VPN or proxy, mainly in the browser and OS signals (navigator, user-agent, cookies, local storage, canvas/webGL, media devices, etc.), a VPN/proxy changes network-level addressing, an anti-detect alters the browser-visible surface that target sites use to identify clients.
Important: this page is informational. We do not provide step-by-step evasion techniques. If you need hands-on configuration, contact our team for paid tutorials.
Trust & affiliations, what to watch for
Not all review pages are neutral. Some landing pages are affiliate-focused and favor specific anti-detect vendors.
Sites like pixelscan.net are often affiliate landing pages for anti-detect products, treat vendor marketing with skepticism.
We are independent: ProxyScore checks proxy quality, not the anti-detect vendor's marketing claims.
Browserleaks.com is widely regarded as a neutral fingerprinting test, and can also be run locally for fully independent results, just right-click and host the source yourself.
Types of anti-detects (very broadly)
Kernel-level solutions, e.g. vendor tools that modify low-level OS behavior, very expensive and complex to host.
Application-level anti-detects, browser-level abstractions that mock or rewrite many browser signals, easier to deploy but have limitations.
Support & community, vendors with live human support are typically more practical, those without human support often cause unpredictable outcomes.
Vendor notes: some products (Gologin, Multilogin, Stealthfox, Linkensphere, etc.) vary widely in defaults and support, we avoid endorsing any single vendor, evaluate for your needs.
Key fields & why they matter (conceptual)
Below is a list of common configuration areas, we describe what they represent at a high level, not how to bypass protections.
Cookies & storage, how cookies are managed and isolated across profiles.
Device emulation, which OS and device class the browser appears to be.
Proxy type & transport, SOCKS5 vs HTTP proxies operate at different network layers and have different trade-offs.
Extensions / plugins, installed extensions and their behavior can reveal or harm anonymity.
Time zone & clock, should be coherent with location and routing.
Browser languages, language headers and Accept-Language must align with other signals.
Geolocation & geodata, platform-level geolocation APIs and how they interact with host OS.
Screen resolution & viewport, mismatches here are often immediate red flags.
Media devices, real vs emulated camera/microphone entries.
Canvas / WebGL / audio contexts, low-level rendering signals that can be fingerprinted.
User agent & navigator, core fields that should be coherent and generated responsibly.
Fonts & system metrics, font lists and platform metrics can uniquely identify environments.
These are conceptual areas, we intentionally omit operational details, if you need guided, hands-on coaching for your specific goals, contact us via Telegram.
Proxy + anti-detect, common failure modes (overview)
Using low-quality or rotating proxies with anti-detect profiles often leads to session instability and bans.
Misaligned signals, timezone vs geolocation vs ASN, are common causes of detection.
Randomly generated UA / navigator values without coherency cause fingerprint mismatches.
Relying on vendor-internal proxies for sticky sessions is usually unreliable.
Reality check: even with careful browser config, a bad proxy pool will break your setup first, proxy hygiene comes before anti-detect tuning.
Operational considerations & hygiene
Profile storage, prefer managed/cloud profile storage where feasible to avoid disk bloat and sync issues.
Session persistence testing, know the guarantees you get from your proxy vendor (sticky time, rotation behavior).
Warming up accounts, gradual, realistic activity reduces immediate signals of automation.
Vendor support, products without live human support are harder to debug in real operations.
