IP Oasis proxies in Mosaic: one line, an exit per profile

We make Mosaic, the local-first anti-detect browser; IP Oasis is a proxy seller you bring your own account to. This page is the setup, not a review of IP Oasis's network.

An IP Oasis account is a username, a password and a gateway host. Mosaic read IP Oasis's gateway line from a real account, so the parts of the line, including where the options sit and what a session id looks like, are read straight from what you paste.

When an IP Oasis gateway closes a tunnel mid-header, Mosaic reads that as an exhausted balance rather than a bug, and says so with a link to top up.

Connect IP Oasis to Mosaic

1. In IP Oasis's dashboard, copy the gateway line for the pool you want, with your username and password in it.
2. In Mosaic, open a profile's proxy field, or the Proxies screen, and paste the line. Mosaic detects it as IP Oasis and saves it as a provider you can reuse.
3. Create profiles from the provider. Each one mints its own IP Oasis session, so each profile browses from a different exit.
4. Press Start. Mosaic checks the proxy before every launch and will not open the browser until IP Oasis has answered and tunnelled, so a dead proxy never leaks your own address.

IP Oasis carries a session id Mosaic recognises, so each profile mints its own session and holds its own exit. An IP Oasis session that answers but reaches nothing is swapped for a fresh one rather than retried, because a residential session that is dead stays dead for every attempt on the same token.

How it works: Provider minting

What you can set per profile with IP Oasis

IP Oasis's line carries the exit country, a state or region, a city, a sticky session id and how long a session holds, so those are what Mosaic lets you choose per profile. Pick country, state and city in IP Oasis's own words, and the exit matches. A pick IP Oasis has no word for is refused by name, because a token a gateway silently ignores would put the profile somewhere else without telling you. The words Mosaic does not recognise still survive, because the line is copied rather than rebuilt, so an option IP Oasis added that Mosaic has never seen still reaches the exit.

What Mosaic does with the IP Oasis exit

Once an IP Oasis proxy is checked, Mosaic reads the public address and city it comes out at and matches the profile to it: the timezone, the languages and the geolocation are set from the exit, not from the proxy's label. Mosaic also stops WebRTC from going around the IP Oasis proxy, so a page cannot read your real address that way. The authentication runs through a local relay, so an IP Oasis login works over HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5, including SOCKS5 with a username and password, which Chrome cannot log in to on its own.

The honest limits

Mosaic does not sell proxies or proxy traffic; the IP Oasis bill is between you and IP Oasis. Mosaic read IP Oasis's format from a real line, but a proxy pool still changes under you, which is why every IP Oasis proxy is checked again before each launch. Whether to run several accounts on IP Oasis exits is the platform's rule, not ours: Mosaic keeps accounts you are entitled to run apart, and does not change what a site allows.

If you are still choosing a seller, the proxies worth using with an anti-detect browser sets out what to look for, and rotating against sticky sessions explains which kind each job wants. Mosaic Pro is $49 a month for any number of profiles, with the first 14 days free, and Free holds 3 profiles.
