Dolphin Anty vs Octo Browser

The widest published engine gap in the bracket set against the cheapest printed profile allowance: Octo Browser ships a Chromium kernel most months, Dolphin Anty ships a price you can read. This page takes 7 decisions one at a time and prints the call under each, with the vendor page it came from and the day it was read — August 9, 2026. Donut Browser publishes it and sells neither side, so the recommendation at the end names one of these two.

Disclosure Donut Browser publishes this page. It is an antidetect browser, so it competes with both Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser — and it earns nothing from which of the two you choose, which is why the comparison below has two columns rather than three. Donut Browser appears once, near the bottom, labelled as the publisher.

Axes are not weighted, and no total is printed, because "free tier" and "published source code" do not trade against each other one for one for any real reader. Read the rows that matter to your work and ignore the rest.

“Dolphin Anty vs Octo Browser” is not really a question about features. Both products do broadly the same thing and anybody typing it has already worked that out; what they want is the one difference that will still matter in six months — and some reason to believe the person telling them is not paid to prefer an answer.

So this page is organised as a series of decisions rather than as a table. Each one asks a question you might genuinely be deciding on, puts what each vendor's own page says beside it, and makes a call. Where the honest call is that the two are the same, it says that instead.

Key Takeaways

  • The widest published engine gap in the bracket set against the cheapest printed profile allowance: Octo Browser ships a Chromium kernel most months, Dolphin Anty ships a price you can read.
  • The widest engine gap on this site. One side publishes a dated kernel most months; the other has published one number since February.
  • 7 decisions, 14 citations. Every figure was read from the vendor's own page and carries that URL and the day it was read — August 9, 2026. Nothing here is quoted from memory.
  • A draw, and the axis on which every antidetect browser in this bracket looks alike: you are asked to trust a binary you cannot read.
  • Donut Browser publishes this page and sells a subscription against neither Dolphin Anty nor Octo Browser. That is why it can print “this could not be established” where a pricing table was ambiguous, and why the recommendation at the end names one of these two rather than a third product.

Dolphin Anty vs Octo Browser: which one should you pick?

Follow the tree. Each fork is one decision, the two branches are what Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser actually do about it, and the call underneath is the referee's — sourced, dated, and sometimes “a draw”. It resolves at the bottom into who each product is for; the same 7 decisions are then taken again, in full and with their citations, in the section after it.

The tree lights up as you scroll and resolves at the bottom. With motion switched off, or with no JavaScript at all, it is simply shown resolved. Nothing in it is a score: each call is a sentence about two cited cells, and the calls are never added up, because weighting one decision against another is the reader's job and not the publisher's.

Which Chromium is each one running?

Both are patched Chromium builds, and neither is on the current one. This is the axis where the two are easiest to check and hardest to argue about: the vendor publishes a number, or it does not.

Chromium major version, read from each vendor's own release notes

Chrome stable was 151 on August 9, 2026. Donut Browser is in the chart because leaving it out of a measurement it also fails would be the kind of quiet edit this page exists not to make.

Where do the profiles actually live?

The axis neither vendor puts on its pricing page, and the one that decides what you still have on the day you stop paying.

Where the profile sleeps

Read from each vendor's own documentation on August 9, 2026. Donut Browser is on the axis for the same reason it is in the engine chart: a referee that measures two products and hides its own position is not refereeing.

Which decisions actually separate Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser?

One section per decision, in the order a buyer meets them. Every cell restates something on a page that was opened on August 9, 2026 and links to it; the call under each is a judgement about those two cells and nothing else.

Engine version, as published

How do Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser compare on engine version, as published?

Dolphin Anty

The most recent engine version the vendor has published is Chromium 144, in a February 2026 post. There is no changelog. [1]

Octo Browser

The Octium changelog records the kernel updated to Chromium 151 on 30 July 2026, with a dated entry for every Chromium major back to 124.

The call The widest engine gap on this site. One side publishes a dated kernel most months; the other has published one number since February.

Can a profile stay on your machine?

How do Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser compare on can a profile stay on your machine??

Dolphin Anty

Yes. Cloud sync is on at creation and is a paid feature; switching it off keeps all profile data on the device, which is then the only machine that can switch it back on.

Octo Browser

No. Storage is cloud only and no local-only mode is documented.

The call Dolphin Anty can be run with nothing in anybody's cloud, at the cost of tying that profile to one computer. Octo Browser offers no version of that trade.

Can a profile be exported?

How do Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser compare on can a profile be exported??

Dolphin Anty

No. The action labelled Export exports cookies or local storage from an existing profile; there is no profile export.

Octo Browser

Yes, as an encrypted file carrying the fingerprint, cookies and proxy, charged at half a token per profile, importable once and only back into Octo Browser.

The call Octo Browser's export is locked and billed, and it still exists. Dolphin Anty has none, so a backup there is a cookie file.

Free tier

Which free tier is actually worth using?

Dolphin Anty

A plan priced at "$0 per month" carrying five browser profiles, though cloud synchronisation is a paid-plan feature. [7]

Octo Browser

None is listed on the pricing page. [8]

The call The part of the price question that needs no currency conversion: five profiles for nothing against no free plan at all.

What the smallest paid plan carries

How do Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser compare on what the smallest paid plan carries?

Dolphin Anty

Starter, at "$10 per month", carries up to 60 profiles and no purchasable extra users. [9]

Octo Browser

Lite, at €10 per month excluding VAT, carries 3 profiles, no team seats and no API. [10]

The call The two figures are in different currencies and neither vendor publishes a rate, so the comparable part is the count: 60 profiles against 3.

When a team becomes affordable

How do Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser compare on when a team becomes affordable?

Dolphin Anty

No extra users on Starter; they arrive at the $89 plan for +$10 each, then +$20 and +$25 above it. [11]

Octo Browser

No seats on the three cheapest plans; three arrive at the €169 Team plan, with up to three more. [12]

The call A draw, and an unflattering one for both. Neither vendor lets a second person in below a middle rung.

Published source code

Can you read either one's source code?

Dolphin Anty

The pricing page names no open-source licence and no public repository. [13]

Octo Browser

The licence agreement scopes itself around the software excluding its source code and forbids reverse engineering. [14]

The call A draw, and the axis on which every antidetect browser in this bracket looks alike: you are asked to trust a binary you cannot read.

What could not be verified about Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser?

Two things belong in a comparison that can be checked: what was established, and what was not. This is the second — listed rather than filled in, because a comparison that quietly guesses at the two or three values it could not read is indistinguishable from one that guessed at all of them.

None of the cells above records a value that could not be read: on this pairing, both vendors' pages answered every question the comparison put to them. What the page still declines to claim is below.

Not claimed anywhere on this page

  • No ratings, review counts or awards for either product. There is no rating data anywhere in this project, so publishing a number would mean inventing one.
  • No detection or ban-rate results. Testing either product against a detection suite needs a paid account on both, and no such test was run.
  • No support-quality, uptime or refund claims. Nothing on the pages read establishes any of them.
  • No tick-and-cross feature matrix. Every tick is a claim about somebody else's product, and a matrix is where unchecked claims hide.
  • No quotes from Reddit, Trustpilot or a review site. None was read, and paraphrasing one would put an unverifiable sentence on a page whose whole argument is that its sentences can be checked.

How was this Dolphin Anty vs Octo Browser comparison checked?

14 citations, grouped by whose site they came from, most recently read on August 9, 2026. Each is a sentence restating what that page said, the page itself, and the date — so a figure that changes tomorrow can be caught by anybody, not only by whoever wrote this.

Where does Donut Browser sit next to Dolphin Anty and Octo Browser?

Publisher's disclosure

One of these publishes a kernel update most months and the other last published one in February 2026. Donut Browser publishes its full Wayfern build string on a manifest anyone can fetch, keeps profiles on your own disk, and ships the app under AGPL-3.0.

That is the entire pitch on this page, and it is at the bottom on purpose: a comparison that turns into an advertisement halfway through is worth nothing to the person reading it, and this one had a choice about whether to be one. The Donut Browser app is on GitHub under AGPL-3.0, its free tier needs no account, and its prices are printed.

What else do buyers ask about these two?

Is Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser better?

Neither, taken as a whole product — and any page that answers that in one word is selling one of them. Across the 7 decisions above the calls go both ways, and at least one is a genuine draw. The useful question is which single decision is yours: what the free tier is worth, how profiles are metered, what a second person costs, or which engines are named. Find that one, read its call, and ignore the rest of the page.

Which free tier is bigger, Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser?

Both publish one, and they are not the same size. What each vendor's own page said when it was read on August 9, 2026: Dolphin Anty: A plan priced at "$0 per month" carrying five browser profiles, though cloud synchronisation is a paid-plan feature. Octo Browser: None is listed on the pricing page. The part of the price question that needs no currency conversion: five profiles for nothing against no free plan at all.

Is Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser open source?

Neither states an open-source licence or a public source repository on the pages read for this comparison: Dolphin Anty: The pricing page names no open-source licence and no public repository. Octo Browser: The licence agreement scopes itself around the software excluding its source code and forbids reverse engineering. A draw, and the axis on which every antidetect browser in this bracket looks alike: you are asked to trust a binary you cannot read.

Who wrote this comparison, and what do they get out of it?

Donut Browser, which is an antidetect browser and therefore a competitor to both. It sells nothing on behalf of Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser and earns nothing from which one you pick, which is the only reason a vendor-published comparison is worth reading at all. What it gets is this page. Every claim above links to the vendor's own page and carries the day it was read, so none of it has to be taken on trust.

Dolphin Anty vs Octo Browser: who is each one actually for?

The calls above split, which is the normal outcome of an honest comparison and a better answer than a single winner would be. Here is the short version of each, and what to do if neither of them is it.

If neither fits
