Proxy detection test

Websites don't need your real IP to spot a proxy. They compare it with everything else your browser gives away. This test runs the checks they use, from time zone and language to WebRTC and automation flags, and shows the fingerprint any site can read.

Detection checks passedTesting…

The fingerprint is read and hashed in your browser and never leaves it. Our server only answers with the IP and headers your request arrives with and who owns that IP. Nothing is stored.

What each check looks for

Time zone vs IP location

The browser's time zone should be one used in the IP's country. A mismatch is one of the strongest proxy signals a site can read without asking.

Browser language

Accept-Language and navigator.languages hint at where you live. Sites weigh it lightly because travellers and expats look the same.

Proxy headers

Transparent and anonymous proxies add Via or Forwarded headers that name themselves. Elite proxies add nothing.

WebRTC IP leak

WebRTC can reveal a public IP that skips the proxy. The WebRTC leak test lists every address it exposes.

Network type

Who owns the IP. Hosting and cloud networks are flagged on sight; the IP lookup shows the full owner and ASN.

Automation and platform

The webdriver flag, a headless User-Agent or a platform that contradicts the User-Agent give bots away. The User-Agent checker parses yours.

How to pass a proxy detection check

  • Start with the right IP type. Data center IPs fail the network check before anything else is read. Use ISP, residential or mobile IPs for sites that score risk.
  • Match time zone and language to the proxy. Pick a proxy in the country you appear from, then set the browser or profile time zone and language to fit it.
  • Close the WebRTC leak. Let the anti-detect browser replace the WebRTC address with the proxy IP, or restrict WebRTC with an extension.
  • Don't half-spoof the browser. Changing only the User-Agent while the platform, screen and GPU say otherwise is easier to catch than not changing it at all.
  • Keep one identity per account. Give each profile its own sticky IP and fingerprint, and don't switch between them mid-session.

Frequently asked questions

Not from the connection itself: a good proxy forwards your traffic like any other client. Sites infer it from evidence around the connection: an IP owned by a hosting company, a time zone or language that doesn't fit the IP's country, headers a proxy added, a WebRTC address that differs from the proxy IP, or a browser that admits to automation. This test runs those same checks.

Proxies that look like real visitors

Static US ISP proxies from $0.75/IP and 4G/5G mobile proxies from $0.79/GB. Test them for $4.99.
