What it does

Argus is an anti-detect browser for teams and operators managing multiple browser accounts at scale. Create isolated profiles with coherent device fingerprints, dedicated proxies, and separate session data—then automate workflows, schedule recurring tasks, and collect results in built-in datasets. Connect Argus to the tools you already use through MCP, a local API, and integrations for AI clients, Slack, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, databases, and more.

Argus is an anti-detect browser by Simnetiq: hundreds of isolated profiles with real fingerprints and proxies, automated on a schedule and driven by an assistant on your own AI keys.

Anti-detect browser for multi-account work Run the accounts. Skip the work. Hundreds of isolated browser profiles with real fingerprints and per-profile proxies — automated on a schedule, collected into your own tables, driven by an assistant that runs on your keys, not ours. Or hand the whole thing to your coding agent — 143 tools over MCP , in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and the rest, on every plan including Free. Windows 10/11 (x64) · v 1.0.82 · or start free with an account Three things you do. Everything else is what Argus does with them. Paste the list you already have. Every profile can run behind its own address, health-checked before launch and fail-closed if it stops working. A…from browserargus.com

    I've been working on browser automation infrastructure for a while and kept hitting the same ceiling: Playwright and Puppeteer are great for scripting but fall apart when you need stealth at scale. Cloud-based solutions like Browserbase work but you're sending all your data to a third party and can't control the environment. So we built Owl Browser, a self-hosted Chromium-based engine that runs in a single Docker container. The core technical problem we tried to solve was fingerprint consistency. Most browser automation tools either ignore fingerprinting entirely or apply surface-level…

    Hey HN, I'm excited to share BrowserBee, a privacy-first AI assistant in your browser that allows you to run and automate tasks using your LLM of choice (currently supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and Ollama). Short demo here: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/209c7042-6d54-4fc... Inspired by projects like Browser Use and Playwright MCP, its main advantage is the browser extension form factor which makes it more convenient for day to day use, especially for less technical users. Its also a bit less cumbersome to use on websites that require you to be…

    Hi HN, I forked chromium and built agent-browser-protocol (ABP) after noticing that most browser-agent failures aren’t really about the model misunderstanding the page. Instead, the problem is that the model is reasoning from a stale state. ABP is designed to keep the acting agent synchronized with the browser at every step. After each action (click, type, etc), it freezes JavaScript execution and rendering, then captures the resulting state. It also compiles the notable events that occurred during that action loop, such as navigation, file pickers, permission prompts, alerts, and downloads,…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
