Today, we’re looking at two different Anti-detect browsers. These tools are critical for no code data collection. Most companies need to harvest web data, but not everyone is comfortable with Python and other code based web scraping tools. With an anti-detect browser, you can scrape without knowing how to code. These fascinating tools offer support for privacy, automation, and the ability to bypass restrictions on the web.
Incogniton (founded in 2021) and Multilogin (founded in 2015) are relatively new players in the anti-detect browser industry. Incogniton is known for its affordability and Chrome compatibility. Multilogin has a higher barrier to entry, but boasts enterprise grade features like Firefox and Linux compatibility.
Let’s take a look at these browsers and see how they match up.
Pricing
Each of these browsers offers a variety of pricing options aimed at users both small and large. Incogniton is the only one to offer a free trial though. Incogniton is the overall winner in pricing. Along with their free trial, their pricing is roughly 33% less than that of Multilogin.
Incogniton
Incogniton offers a free trial (only on the starter package) along with four main pricing plans. They range from $19.99/month to $149.99/month, with the option to save 30% for a 6 month subscription. This makes it accessible to both small and large businesses. You can view their packages here.
- Free Trial: 2 months, 10 browser profiles
- Free Plan: When the free trial ends, you can continue using the ‘Starter’ package with 3 browser profiles instead of 10
- Starter Plus: Starts from $13.99/month
- Entrepreneur: Starts from $20.99/month

Data Security and Privacy
Incogniton and Multilogin offer the same features when it comes to general security. They likely encrypt your traffic and keep your data on firewalled, secure servers, this is a relatively common security practice. However, neither company mentions this on their site, so we’ll leave it out of our bullet points. Both products offer excellent proxy integration and 2FA (2 Factor Authentication).
