Lalicat Alternatives: 5 Compared for Mac and Linux

Three structural walls, and one reason to leave that you should reconsider.

The operating system wall. Lalicat's download page offers one build. The button reads "Download Lalicat for Windows" and the requirements are "64-bit processor, 8GB+ RAM, SSD recommended. OS: Windows 10 / 11 x64" (Lalicat download, read 7 October 2026). No macOS build, no Linux build, and no mobile app, which Lalicat confirms itself: "There is currently no anti-detection browser on the mobile terminal that can be used directly on the mobile phone." If half your team is on Macs, no plan helps.

The automation host wall. Every tier, including the trial, lists "Local rest API for automation" and "Rest API and Cli". Local is the operative word: the API talks to the browser on the same machine, so the box driving your scripts has to be the box running Lalicat. Combine that with the wall above and your automation host must be a Windows desktop, not a container and not a Linux runner.

The three-day wall. The free option is a "3-Day Free Trial for All New Users" with "No Limitations in Features", and the page does not say how many profiles it includes. Three days confirms the app launches. It does not tell you whether a profile still looks like the same device after a fortnight, which is the thing you are buying. Our roundup of free antidetect browsers compares the permanent plans.

Now the reason to stay. Do not leave over team seats. Lalicat includes 1 free sub-account on Personal, 5 on Solo, 10 on Team and 20 on Scale, rather than selling them per head. GoLogin publishes one team member on every paid tier including Custom. If an article told you Lalicat is poor value, check whether it counted sub-accounts.

Here is the published ladder, read from the pricing page's own HTML.

As published on lalicat.com/pricing, 7 October 2026. What you are replacing is the Chromium profile browser, cloud profile syncing, bulk cookie and proxy export, a local REST API and CLI, per-profile proxies with IPv6, mobile fingerprint simulation and sub-account sharing. Anything you have not opened in four weeks is not a requirement.

Pages read 7 October 2026: MoreLogin, Dolphin Anty, Kameleo, Multilogin, AdsPower. Kameleo's entry tier counts browsers running at once, not identities in storage, so it is not comparable to anything in the Lalicat table. For the Windows-native field instead, see the best antidetect browsers for Windows.

Worth knowing before you build a spreadsheet. Lalicat's Solo, Team and Scale tiers are $99 for 200 profiles with 5 sub-accounts, $209 for 500 with 10, and $499 for 3,000 with 20. VMLogin's SOLO, TEAM and SCALE are $99 for 200 with 5, $209 for 500 with 10, and $499 for 3,000 with 20 (VMLogin pricing, read 7 October 2026). Same prices, same profile counts, same sub-account counts, same 25% annual discount, same three-day trial, same Windows-only download. I am reporting what both publish and drawing no conclusion about why. The practical point: if you are weighing these two on price, there is nothing to weigh. Lalicat does add a tier VMLogin has no equivalent of, Personal at $59 for 100 profiles and one sub-account.

One piece of arithmetic specific to this ladder, since the category-wide version already lives in antidetect browser pricing compared. Per profile, Lalicat gets cheaper as you climb: roughly $0.59 on Personal, $0.50 on Solo, $0.42 on Team, $0.17 on Scale. Scale is the competitive tier, and since almost nobody fills 100 profiles on Personal, a fifteen-profile operator is really paying close to $4 each in use. One more trap on the same page: the three-month option costs $177, exactly three times the monthly rate, so only the annual plan is a real discount.

If the automation host is your wall, this is the most direct fix here. MoreLogin publishes installers for Windows, macOS and Linux, and the Linux option splits into desktop and server builds. A server build is what a local API needs in order to stop being a desktop dependency: script and browser on the same headless machine.

Local API plus WebDriver ships on every plan including Free, which is $0 for 2 profiles and 2 team members. Pro is $5.40 a month, advertised as 40% off a $9 list, for 10 profiles.

The ceiling arrives fast and as a sales call: above Pro there is only Custom, so a Lalicat Personal user with 30 profiles is already into a conversation. Mobile is metered separately at $0.006 per minute, capped at $1.50 a day, near $23 to $25 over a 30-day month.

Dolphin Anty ships Windows, macOS and Linux. Free is $0 for up to 5 profiles with 1 user. Starter is $10 for up to 60 profiles, also 1 user, with no option to add more. Base is $89 for up to 100 with extra users at $10 each, Team is $159 for up to 300 at $20 each, Enterprise is $299 for unlimited profiles at $25 each.

Hold that against Lalicat Personal: $59 for 100 profiles and one sub-account versus $10 for 60 profiles and one user. A single operator under 60 profiles on a Mac pays Lalicat $49 a month more for capacity they are not using and an OS they do not have.

It stops being decisive the moment a second person needs a login. Seats mean moving to Base at $89, then $10 per head, so two people cost $99, which is exactly Lalicat Solo's price for 200 profiles and five sub-accounts. More in Dolphin Anty alternatives.

Kameleo is compatible with Windows 10 and later, Windows Server 2016 and later, macOS 12 and later, and Docker. The Docker image is the point: a container is a runner you can schedule, version and throw away.

It also prices the thing Lalicat leaves unstated. Lalicat sells "Saved Profiles" and promises "Independent browser profiles, no restriction in device numbers", and nowhere on that page is a figure for how many may run at once. Kameleo bills exactly that: Free is EUR 0 with 2 concurrent browsers, 100 cloud profiles, 3 team members and 300 minutes; Startup is EUR 59 a month, or EUR 45 annually, for 10 concurrent and 5,000 cloud profiles with unlimited members; Business and Enterprise are EUR 299 and EUR 1,499, or EUR 225 and EUR 1,125 annually, for 100 and 1,000 concurrent. Concurrency and storage are different products wearing the same noun, so those figures are not equivalents to Lalicat's.

Kameleo also states how far behind upstream its engines may drift: Chroma covers Chrome and Edge and updates within five days of a Chrome release, Junglefox covers Firefox and refreshes every two months. Lalicat publishes a build number, V1.0.9.7, but not the Chromium version inside it, so you cannot tell from outside whether the core is current. See Kameleo alternatives.

Multilogin ships Windows, macOS and Linux builds, numbered 6.4.5-7 when I read the page. Free gives 5 profiles, 1 seat and a one-time 200 MB of proxy traffic. Pro runs $11 for 10 profiles, $19 for 20 and $29 for 50, or $7.08, $12.42 and $19.17 paid annually, with 1 to 2 seats. Business starts from $26.67 a month paid annually, runs from 100 to 10,000 profiles, and includes unlimited team seats. If 20 sub-accounts is the number you outgrew, Business is the only row here that stops counting heads.

The engine is the other reason to land here. Lalicat's homepage describes itself precisely: "Through revising chromium core to create physically isolated fingerprint in each virtual profile", and separately, that it "can emulate Chrome, Firefox". Both are true and they are not the same promise. Emulating Firefox from a modified Chromium changes what JavaScript can read, not the TLS handshake or the behaviours that come from the engine itself. Multilogin's Stealthfox is Gecko, so switching engines there changes the whole surface rather than the reported strings. What antidetect browsers actually protect walks the layers, and Multilogin alternatives covers the trade, a heavier client and a slower first week.

AdsPower has the widest install footprint here: Windows 10 or later in 32-bit and 64-bit, macOS 11 or later built separately for Apple Silicon and Intel, Linux for Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 or later, desktop builds at 8.9.23 dated 2026/09/24, plus an iPhone app. For a mixed-hardware team, that is the shortest route to everyone running the same software.

Its free tier is permanent rather than a countdown: 2 profiles, 0 team members. Professional sells in 10, 20, 50 and 100-profile sizes with a single super-administrator, Enterprise starts at 5,000, and both a Chrome and a Firefox stealth browser ship. The draw for a Lalicat user is the operator workflow, since Lalicat's automation answer is an API and a CLI that assume somebody writes code.

Here is where Lalicat beats it, plainly. Lalicat's four prices are written into the HTML of its pricing page, so they can be quoted, dated and held to. AdsPower's arrive from a script after the page renders, so there is no number in the document to cite, which is why this section names none. Get it from the app with your own currency selected. More in AdsPower alternatives.

The general sequence is in our profile migration guide. Four things are specific to leaving this tool.

Move the software before the hardware. This is the one people get wrong on an OS-driven exit. Handing out MacBooks and installing the new browser the same week changes the engine, the fingerprint, the host OS and usually the office IP at once, on accounts that have declared a Windows machine for a year. Install the replacement on the Windows boxes you have, confirm the accounts survive, then move the hardware a month later.

Export while you are paid up. Profiles are cloud-synced, per Lalicat's own feature list, so the export window closes with your billing. Bulk cookie and proxy export is on every tier, and the proxy mapping is the part you cannot reconstruct afterwards.

Accept that there is almost no rollback. A three-day trial is not a parallel-run window, so cancelling means paying again to go back. Keep one overlapping month at the monthly rate rather than prepaying an annual discount you are about to abandon.

Keep the engine family and the OS story still. Lalicat is a revised Chromium core, so MoreLogin, Dolphin Anty, Mimic, Chroma and AdsPower's Chrome build change the fingerprint but stay in the family; Stealthfox and Junglefox change the engine too, so take Gecko later. And a profile that has declared Windows for a year should be rebuilt as Windows even though you now drive it from a Mac. Go in cohorts of five to ten, cheapest first, watching each for a week.

Lalicat is refreshingly direct here: it bundles no proxy traffic at all. The pricing page offers "Support for independent proxies and IPv6", and the footer lists five third-party proxy vendors by name. The network is your purchase, and at a few hundred logged-in identities it is the larger half of the bill.

Two rules survive whichever browser you land on. A logged-in profile wants one exit address and wants to keep it, so use sticky sessions rather than rotation. And geography has to agree with the story the profile tells, which is the catch in Lalicat's promise to set latitude and longitude from the IP: it only works while the IP stays put. Both are explained in why antidetect browsers need proxies, and best proxies for antidetect browsers covers address types.

In any of these browsers, a held session looks like:

Type:      HTTP
Host:      gateway.sparkproxy.io
Port:      11002
Username:  user-session-acct17
Password:  your-password

Verify it before attaching it to anything valuable:

# Same session token twice. Identical exit IP both times, or the session is not sticky.
curl -x http://user-session-acct17:PASS@gateway.sparkproxy.io:11002 https://ipinfo.io/json
curl -x http://user-session-acct17:PASS@gateway.sparkproxy.io:11002 https://ipinfo.io/json

# Rotating pool on 11000: a new exit per call, which is wrong for a logged-in profile.
curl -x http://user:PASS@gateway.sparkproxy.io:11000 https://ipinfo.io/json

# SOCKS5 on 13000, for browsers whose proxy field prefers it. TCP only, not a UDP relay.
curl -x socks5h://user-session-acct17:PASS@gateway.sparkproxy.io:13000 https://ipinfo.io/json

The session token lives in the username, so the credential format matters as much as the host, and how proxy authentication works covers the gotchas.

Our disclosure, since we sell one layer of this stack and no antidetect browser: SparkProxy runs datacenter proxies, rotating on 11000, sticky on 11002 and SOCKS5 on 13000, with a 24-hour trial. Those addresses suit ad verification, SERP checks, price monitoring and localisation QA, while consumer social accounts want residential or mobile exits, which we do not sell.

• Your team is partly on Macs. MoreLogin, Dolphin Anty, Multilogin and AdsPower all ship macOS builds, and AdsPower alone splits Apple Silicon from Intel.
• Your automation needs a server, not a desktop. MoreLogin's Linux server build or Kameleo's Docker image.
• You are one person with fewer than 60 profiles. Dolphin Anty Starter at $10, since Personal is $59 for capacity you are not using.
• You never got to evaluate properly. Kameleo's free plan, or MoreLogin's if the test needs scripting.
• You hit a ceiling on profiles running at once. Kameleo, where concurrency is the billed unit.
• You outgrew 20 sub-accounts, or need a genuine Firefox engine. Multilogin, for unlimited Business seats and Stealthfox.
• Your operators click rather than script, and everyone is on Windows anyway. Stay. You are paying for generous sub-accounts and an API on every tier, and a migration puts every account you own through a device change. Still weighing criteria? See how to choose an antidetect browser.
