In their own words
Kameleo
Kameleo is an anti-detect browser for web scraping, browser automation, and managing multiple accounts. Its Chroma and Junglefox browsers mask fingerprints for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari profiles, and desktop use can emulate Android and iOS browser behavior. Automation can run through Selenium, Puppeteer, or Playwright scripts, or through a Local API with Python, JavaScript, and C# SDKs. Profiles can use HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5, and SSH proxies. Local profiles are unlimited; the Free plan includes 100 cloud profiles, while paid plans include at least 5,000. Paid plans also include unlimited team seats and role-based access for cloud profiles. Official Docker images are available for Linux and Windows containers. The Free plan is €0.00 per free and includes two concurrent browsers, 300 minutes of browser usage, two emulated mobile browsers, and three team members. Startup (annual) is €45.00 per year; Startup (monthly) is €59.00 per month.
Waterfox
Waterfox is a free, open-source web browser built around privacy and customisation. It uses the Gecko engine and is listed for Android, browser extensions, Linux, macOS and Windows. On desktop, it blocks ads, trackers, pop-ups and overlays by default; filter lists and site exceptions can be adjusted. Private tabs use their own container, and Waterfox removes that container’s site data when the final private tab closes. DNS requests are encrypted and passed through an Oblivious HTTP relay; users can change or disable the default Fastly-operated relay and Cloudflare-operated resolver. Tree tabs nest pages under the page that opened them, with branches that can be collapsed or moved together. Firefox WebExtensions work, but Chrome-only extensions do not transfer automatically. Regular updates incorporate Mozilla security fixes using the Firefox ESR model. Waterfox says telemetry, health reports and crash reports are disabled at build time. Sync is off until Mozilla-account sign-in, and synced data is end-to-end encrypted. The browser plan is free, with no premium tier or required payment.
