Set up MarsProxies with the Mosaic anti-detect browser

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

MarsProxies gives you one gateway line with your account's tokens in it. Mosaic reads MarsProxies's gateway line from the seller's own documentation, so the separator, the place tokens and the session shape are read off that line rather than retyped.

Connect MarsProxies to Mosaic

1. In MarsProxies'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 MarsProxies and saves it as a provider you can reuse.
3. Attach the MarsProxies line to each profile. Mosaic checks the exit it reaches before the browser opens.
4. Press Start. Mosaic checks the proxy before every launch and will not open the browser until MarsProxies has answered and tunnelled, so a dead proxy never leaks your own address.

MarsProxies's line has no session token Mosaic reads, so profiles share its rotation unless you paste one of MarsProxies's own sticky endpoints. If a MarsProxies endpoint stops answering, the launch stops and names what failed, so you fix the line rather than browse on your own IP.

How it works: Provider minting

What MarsProxies carries in its line

MarsProxies's gateway line, as Mosaic reads it, has no country, city or session token that Mosaic recognises. So Mosaic uses the line as you paste it: whichever MarsProxies endpoint and country the line already names is the exit. To put a profile in a particular place, paste the MarsProxies endpoint for that place; to keep one exit for a profile, paste one of MarsProxies's sticky endpoints.

What Mosaic does with the MarsProxies exit

Once a MarsProxies 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 MarsProxies proxy, so a page cannot read your real address that way. The authentication runs through a local relay, so a MarsProxies 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 MarsProxies bill is between you and MarsProxies. Mosaic reads MarsProxies's format from the published documentation and has not run it against a live MarsProxies account, so the row shows an untested badge; the format may be out of date if MarsProxies has changed it. Whether to run several accounts on MarsProxies 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.
