About
CloakBrowser is a stealth Chromium browser for developers and automation teams using Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, or CDP. It is built for public web data, QA, monitoring, scraping, and AI-agent workflows where standard Chromium setups become fragile.
CloakBrowser keeps the familiar automation experience. Teams can migrate existing Playwright or Puppeteer workflows with minimal code changes, while .NET and Selenium/CDP are also supported. Run it locally or self-hosted on Windows, macOS, Linux, Docker, and VPS infrastructure.
The custom Chromium build handles browser behavior at the source level. CloakBrowser supports persistent profiles, reproducible browser identities, proxy-aware configuration, human-like interaction timing, Docker deployment, and CDP server mode. The wrapper is MIT-licensed; the custom Chromium build is distributed separately under a proprietary license. Proxies and CAPTCHA solving are not included.

About
Shifter is a residential proxy network for collecting public web data at a lower cost than major providers. It has operated since 2012.
In our published benchmarks we tested Shifter against the biggest names in residential proxies, using the same method for everyone. Shifter costs less than half of what most of them charge per GB, gives you a comparable or bigger IP pool, and has lower latencies, often by 50% or more.
The network covers 205M+ residential IPs in 195+ countries through one gateway endpoint over HTTP, HTTPS or SOCKS5. Country, state, city and ASN targeting is set in the proxy username. Sessions rotate on every request or stay on one IP for a set time, concurrency is uncapped, and usage is billed per GB.
A dashboard shows live bandwidth and requests, team workspaces, a usage API and guides for Python, Node.js, Go, PHP, Selenium, Playwright and Puppeteer.
