Incogniton Proxy Setup: Multi-Account Browser Guide
Incogniton is an anti-detect browser that balances affordability with a strong feature set. It stands out with its generous free plan (10 profiles), local data storage option, Selenium and Puppeteer integration, and a synchronization feature that lets you control multiple profiles simultaneously. For operators who want capable multi-account management without a premium price tag, Incogniton delivers solid value.
This guide covers proxy configuration in Incogniton from start to finish. You will learn how to set up proxies in individual profiles, import proxies in bulk, configure fingerprints to match proxy locations, and leverage Incogniton’s unique features for efficient multi-account operations.
Why Incogniton
Incogniton occupies a practical middle ground in the anti-detect browser market:
- 10 free profiles — one of the most generous free tiers available
- Local data storage — profiles can be stored locally rather than in the cloud, giving you full control
- Cloud sync option — available on paid plans for cross-device access
- Profile synchronization — mirror actions across multiple profiles simultaneously
- Selenium/Puppeteer integration — full automation support
- Paste-as-human-typing — simulates realistic typing patterns when pasting text
- Bulk profile management — efficient tools for managing hundreds of profiles
- Affordable pricing — competitive rates at scale
Prerequisites
Before configuring proxies, have the following ready:
- Incogniton installed on your desktop (Windows or macOS)
- An account on the Starter (free) or paid plan
- Proxy details: host, port, username, password
- Proxy protocol: HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5
For DataResearchTools mobile proxy users, gather your credentials from the dashboard before starting.
Step-by-Step: Proxy Setup in Incogniton
Step 1: Create a New Browser Profile
Open Incogniton and click New Profile in the profile management area. The profile creation dialog will open.
Name your profile with a descriptive convention. For social media: FB-SG-001. For e-commerce: Shopee-MY-003. Consistent naming makes profile management much easier as you scale.
Step 2: Choose the Operating System
Select the OS your profile will emulate:
- Windows — most common, suitable for most use cases
- macOS — use for diversity or when targeting Mac-specific platforms
- Linux — less common, use sparingly
The OS selection affects the user agent, screen resolution defaults, and other system-level fingerprint parameters.
Step 3: Configure the Proxy
In the profile editor, navigate to the Proxy tab or section. Select the connection type:
- Direct connection — no proxy (uses your real IP, not recommended for multi-account work)
- HTTP Proxy — standard web proxy
- HTTPS Proxy — encrypted HTTP proxy
- SOCKS4 Proxy — older protocol
- SOCKS5 Proxy — recommended for best performance and compatibility
Enter your proxy credentials:
- IP/Host: Proxy server address (e.g.,
sg.dataresearchtools.com) - Port: Port number (e.g.,
1080) - Username: Proxy authentication username
- Password: Proxy authentication password
Step 4: Verify the Proxy
Click the Check Proxy button. Incogniton will test the connection and report:
- Success or failure status
- The IP address the proxy resolves to
- The detected country and city
- Connection speed estimate
If the check fails, verify:
- Credentials are correct (watch for copy-paste errors with extra spaces)
- The proxy is active and not expired
- Your provider does not require IP whitelisting
- Try switching between HTTP and SOCKS5
Step 5: Configure Timezone and Location
After a successful proxy check, align the profile’s location settings with the proxy:
Timezone: Click Fill based on external IP if available, or manually set the timezone. For a Singapore proxy: Asia/Singapore. For Malaysia: Asia/Kuala_Lumpur.
WebRTC: Set to Altered or Disabled. “Altered” is preferred because it shows the proxy IP without blocking WebRTC functionality entirely. Disabling WebRTC can itself be a detection signal.
Geolocation: Enable geolocation and set coordinates matching the proxy’s city. Incogniton may offer auto-fill based on the IP check.
Language: Set browser language preferences to match the proxy location. First language should match the primary language of the proxy’s country.
Step 6: Configure Fingerprint Settings
Review the fingerprint parameters:
- Canvas: Set to “Noise” for unique per-profile canvas rendering
- WebGL: Enable with noise generation
- Audio Context: Enable with noise
- User Agent: Let Incogniton auto-generate based on the selected OS
- Screen Resolution: Choose a common resolution for the selected OS (1920×1080 for Windows)
- Fonts: Use the default font set — custom fonts can be a detection vector
- Hardware Concurrency: Leave at default (auto or common values like 4/8)
Step 7: Save and Launch
Click Create Profile to save. Then click Start next to the profile in your list.
Verify the configuration:

Bulk Proxy Operations
Importing Proxies in Bulk
Incogniton allows bulk proxy import for efficient setup:
- Go to the proxy management section
- Click Import or Bulk Add
- Paste your proxy list in supported format:
host:port:username:password
socks5://username:password@host:port
http://username:password@host:port
username:password@host:port- Proxies are added to your proxy pool
- Assign them to profiles individually or during bulk profile creation
Bulk Profile Creation
- Click Create Multiple Profiles or Batch Create
- Set the number of profiles
- Assign proxies from your imported proxy list
- Each profile receives one proxy
- Fingerprint settings are randomized per profile
- Click Create to generate all profiles
Proxy Rotation in Profiles
For profiles used in scraping rather than account management, you can assign a rotating proxy endpoint. Each connection gets a new IP. This is only appropriate for data collection — account-based work must use static or sticky proxies.
Profile Synchronization Feature
Incogniton’s synchronization feature is unique. It allows you to mirror actions performed in one profile across multiple other profiles simultaneously.
How Synchronization Works
- Select a “master” profile
- Select one or more “synced” profiles
- Start all profiles
- Actions you perform in the master profile are replicated in real time across synced profiles
Synchronization and Proxy Considerations
Each synced profile uses its own proxy. So if you are performing the same action across 10 profiles:
- Profile 1 (master): Uses Proxy A (Singapore IP 1)
- Profile 2 (synced): Uses Proxy B (Singapore IP 2)
- Profile 3 (synced): Uses Proxy C (Singapore IP 3)
- And so on
The actions are the same, but each profile appears as a different user from a different IP. This is powerful for:
- Creating and warming multiple accounts simultaneously
- Posting content across multiple social media accounts
- Managing multiple e-commerce storefronts
Timing Considerations
To avoid detection, add slight random delays between synced actions. Platforms can detect when multiple accounts perform identical actions at identical timestamps, even from different IPs.
Automation with Selenium and Puppeteer
Selenium Integration
Incogniton provides debug ports for each running profile:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.debugger_address = "127.0.0.1:DEBUG_PORT"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
driver.get("https://example.com")Puppeteer Integration
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer-core');
const browser = await puppeteer.connect({
browserWSEndpoint: 'ws://127.0.0.1:DEBUG_PORT/devtools/browser/...',
defaultViewport: null
});
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');Both methods connect to the already-running Incogniton profile, using its proxy and fingerprint settings.
Paste-as-Human-Typing
Incogniton’s paste-as-human-typing feature simulates realistic typing patterns when you paste text. Instead of the text appearing instantly (which platforms can detect), it is entered character by character with natural delays and occasional pauses.
This feature works through the profile’s proxy connection, so each keystroke event comes from the proxy IP. Combined with proper proxy configuration, it makes automated or semi-automated data entry look natural.
Team Management
Setting Up Team Access
On paid plans, Incogniton supports team collaboration:
- Navigate to Team or Settings > Team Management
- Invite members by email
- Assign roles:
- Admin: Full access
- Manager: Profile creation and management
- User: Profile launch only
Profile Sharing
Transfer profiles between team members without changing proxy settings. The receiving member gets the full profile including proxy, fingerprint, cookies, and session data.
Troubleshooting
Proxy Connection Issues
- Check credentials for accuracy
- Try different protocols (HTTP vs SOCKS5)
- Verify the proxy has not reached its connection limit
- Test the proxy externally with
curl -x socks5://user:pass@host:port https://httpbin.org/ip
Timezone Mismatch Warnings
- Ensure the timezone setting matches the proxy IP’s location exactly
- Use the auto-fill feature when available
- Common issue: UTC offset is correct but the timezone name does not match the city
WebRTC Leak
- Set WebRTC to “Altered” not “Real”
- Test at
browserleaks.com/webrtcafter launching the profile - If leaks persist, try “Disabled” but note this can trigger detection on some platforms
Profile Fails to Start
- Ensure the Incogniton application is up to date
- Check that no other anti-detect browser is running on the same port range
- Verify your subscription has not expired or exceeded profile limits
Recommended Proxy Types
| Use Case | Best Proxy Type | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Facebook/Instagram accounts | Mobile proxies | Matches real mobile user behavior |
| E-commerce multi-store | Mobile or residential | Static IP required |
| Social media automation | Mobile proxies | High trust IPs |
| Google account management | ISP proxies | Consistent, clean IPs |
| Web scraping | Rotating residential | Fresh IPs prevent blocking |
| Crypto account management | Mobile proxies | Financial platforms require high trust |
Mobile proxies provide the highest level of trust for account-based work because the IPs come from real mobile carrier networks. Platforms like Facebook and Shopee see mobile IPs as legitimate users on their phones, which is exactly what a mobile proxy represents.
For Southeast Asian operations, DataResearchTools provides Singapore mobile proxies with IPs from local carriers. These pair naturally with Incogniton profiles configured for Singapore-based accounts on platforms like Shopee, Facebook, TikTok, and Google.
Power your Incogniton profiles with trusted mobile proxies. DataResearchTools offers Singapore mobile proxies with genuine carrier IPs, SOCKS5/HTTP support, sticky sessions, and instant activation. Explore our mobile proxy plans and get your multi-account setup running in minutes.
