Donut Browser is an open-source anti-detect desktop browser for macOS, Windows, and Linux that creates unlimited isolated browser profiles, each with its own spoofed fingerprint, cookies, extensions, proxy, or WireGuard VPN. It is built on the Wayfern Chromium fork and exposes a local REST API and MCP server for programmatic control and automation.
Use cases
- manage multiple isolated browser profiles with distinct fingerprints
- run multiple accounts without them being linked by browser fingerprinting
- route each browser profile through a different proxy or VPN
- automate browser tasks with Playwright or an MCP server
- migrate profiles from Chrome, Edge, or Brave
- block ads and trackers per profile with DNS adblocking
- sync browser profiles across devices with end-to-end encryption
When to choose
- you need per-profile fingerprint spoofing that evades anti-bot systems like Cloudflare and reCAPTCHA
- you want a local-first, zero-telemetry alternative to commercial anti-detect browsers
- you need programmatic browser control via REST API, MCP, or Playwright
- you want self-hostable, encrypted profile sync
When to avoid
- you need a fully open-source stack — the Wayfern Chromium engine ships as a closed-source binary
- you just want a standard everyday browser without profile isolation
- your company cannot accept AGPL-3.0 obligations and you don't want a commercial licence
- you need browser-launch/manipulation APIs on the free tier — those are paid Pro features
