AdsPower review
Figures checked: 2026-08-24
AdsPower has the largest search demand of any antidetect browser and the most thoroughly documented automation stack in the category — a Local API with published rate limits plus a no-code RPA builder. The weak spot is the free plan: two profiles is the smallest starting allowance among the major products.

Who it suits
AdsPower is the strongest pick in this set if automation is central to your workflow. A documented API with explicit rate limits plus a visual RPA builder covers both developers and non-developers, and few competitors publish rate limits at all.
It is a weaker pick if you want to evaluate slowly and cheaply. Two free profiles will not show you how the product behaves at the scale you would actually run it, and calculator pricing makes budgeting harder than a fixed tier list.
FAQ
How many free profiles does AdsPower give you?
Two, permanently. The official pricing page lists the Free plan as 2 profiles and 0 members, with one super-administrator account. A 7-day trial of the paid features is also available.

Does AdsPower have an API?
Yes. The Local API is documented and rate-limited by tier: 120 requests per minute on Professional, 300 on Business and 600 on Enterprise. An RPA builder covers no-code automation.
Which operating systems does AdsPower support?
Windows, macOS and Linux.
Is the free plan enough to evaluate AdsPower?
Barely. Two profiles confirms that isolation works and your proxy connects, but not how bulk management behaves — which is what AdsPower is best known for. The 7-day trial is the more useful evaluation route.
Alternatives
Dolphin Anty
free tier: 5 profilesIf the 2-profile free plan is the blocker: five free profiles with no expiry and all spoofing functionality unlocked.
Trade-off: that allowance was cut from ten, and team seats are billed per user.
GoLogin
free tier: 3 profilesIf annual cost decides it: a 50% annual discount against AdsPower's 20%.
Trade-off: zero team seats on the entry tier, and published prices that contradict each other.
Nativ Browser
from $49/moIf member seats are what inflates your AdsPower bill: Nativ charges by seats, not profiles — its $99 tier holds up to 1,000 users with roles included.
Trade-off: Windows only, a $49 entry tier, and no API at all — exactly what AdsPower is strongest at.
