Clearcote

De-Googled Chromium with fingerprint controls and automation SDKs

Clearcote is an open-source Chromium browser build designed for privacy and automation. It removes Google dependencies and provides engine-level fingerprint controls to help prevent browser fingerprinting detection.

The tool includes drop-in SDKs for Playwright and Puppeteer, making it easy to integrate into automation workflows. Reproducible builds ensure transparency and verifiability of the browser binary.

Ideal for developers, testers, and anyone needing a privacy-focused browser with advanced control over browser identification.

What users say about Clearcote

SpinHire

The drop-in Playwright SDK is the part I would test first. We run headless Chromium on a small droplet to post content across a dozen platforms, and our worst failure was never detection, it was lifecycle: when a job crashed mid-upload, the renderer and GPU processes outlived the Python parent, and after a few days the box ran out of file descriptors while monitoring showed everything green. We ended up writing our own watchdog that kills orphaned process groups. Since Clearcote ships its own binary and SDK wrapper, does it launch the browser in its own process group and clean it up when the controlling script dies, or is that still left to the caller?

Does Clearcote make de-Googled Chromium with fingerprint controls and Playwright/Puppeteer SDKs feel credible before someone builds an automation flow on it? Happy to send a totally free first-impression video if useful.
