Stealth Automation

Browser Swarm offers robust stealth automation features to help your browser sessions mimic real user behavior, effectively bypassing anti-bot mechanisms and ensuring seamless automation workflows.

🧩 Basic Stealth Mode

Basic Stealth Mode is designed to handle common detection techniques by:

Randomizing Browser Fingerprints: Automatically generating realistic browser fingerprints for each session.
Dynamic Viewports: Assigning random, realistic viewport sizes to emulate various devices.
CAPTCHA Solving: Detecting and solving most visual CAPTCHAs automatically.

These features work out-of-the-box, eliminating the need for manual configuration and reducing the likelihood of detection.

🛡️ Advanced Stealth Mode

For more sophisticated anti-bot systems, Advanced Stealth Mode provides enhanced capabilities:

Custom Chromium Build: Utilizing a specially crafted version of Chromium to better mimic human-like behavior.
Enhanced Fingerprinting Techniques: Implementing advanced methods to avoid detection by more rigorous systems.
Optimized for Scale: Designed for high-volume automation tasks requiring greater stealth.

Note: Advanced Stealth Mode is available for users on the Scale Plan. Contact support to enable this feature.

🤖 CAPTCHA Solving

CAPTCHAs can disrupt automation workflows. Browser Swarm addresses this by:

Automatic Detection: Identifying CAPTCHAs during session execution.
Background Solving: Attempting to solve CAPTCHAs without manual intervention, typically within 30 seconds.
Proxy Integration: Enhancing success rates by routing traffic through residential proxies.

To disable CAPTCHA solving, set solveCaptchas to false in your session configuration.

⚙️ Enabling Stealth Features

To activate stealth features in your sessions:

Example:

import { BrowserSwarm } from 'browser-swarm-sdk';

const bs = new BrowserSwarm({ apiKey: process.env.BROWSER_SWARM_API_KEY });

const session = await bs.sessions.create({
  projectId: process.env.BROWSER_SWARM_PROJECT_ID,
  browserSettings: {
    advancedStealth: true,
    solveCaptchas: true,
  },
  proxies: true,
});

from browser_swarm import BrowserSwarm
import os

bs = BrowserSwarm(api_key=os.environ["BROWSER_SWARM_API_KEY"])

session = bs.sessions.create(
    project_id=os.environ["BROWSER_SWARM_PROJECT_ID"],
    browser_settings={
        "advanced_stealth": True,
        "solve_captchas": True,
    },
    proxies=True,
)

Ensure that your account has the necessary permissions to use Advanced Stealth Mode.

💡 Best Practices

Use Proxies: Enhance anonymity and reduce detection by routing sessions through residential proxies.
Avoid Custom Fingerprinting: Rely on Browser Swarm's automated fingerprinting for optimal results.
Monitor Sessions: Utilize the Session Inspector to observe and debug sessions in real-time.

By leveraging Browser Swarm's stealth automation features, you can execute reliable and undetectable browser automation tasks at scale.
