What Afina is

Afina places profiles, reusable variables, visual flows, Node.js modules, schedules, and a broad local HTTP API in one desktop workspace. Team movement depends on its cloud service.

  • Profile model: Profiles carry separate browser state, proxies, variables, tags, groups, bulk actions, tasks, scripts, modules, databases, and documented backups.
  • Platforms: Current desktop builds support Windows x64 and macOS on Intel and Apple silicon; Linux is not listed.
  • Team model: Workspaces support invitations, configurable permissions, workspace switching, account movement, and transfer through Afina Cloud.
  • Automation: Visual flows, custom Node.js modules, schedules, and an API-key-protected localhost API expose profiles, cookies, tasks, logs, CDP, and MCP-linked integrations.

Who Afina fits

A local-first desktop profile platform combining isolated profiles and proxies with visual and Node.js automation, a localhost HTTP and CDP API, and optional team workflows.

  • Technical operators wanting bulk profile management with visual and code automation.
  • Teams that use scheduled task groups, MCP, and a broad localhost API in one desktop app.

Afina and Isoline

Afina is a close automation-heavy comparison. Isoline may later emphasize owned Chromium lifecycle, narrow versioned contracts, recovery gates, and optional encrypted sync, but those should remain future-tense.

Isoline is in its foundation phase. Its local-first profile model, optional client-side-encrypted synchronization, recovery controls, and versioned automation interfaces are product direction until release evidence says otherwise. No public Isoline pricing or feature parity is implied.

  • Compare documented current behavior, not feature-list promises.
  • Validate migration, recovery, update freshness, permissions, and automation against the intended workflow.

What to verify before choosing Afina

Official documentation defines the factual starting point. A production decision still needs hands-on testing with authorized profiles, proxies, extensions, failure cases, and team permissions.

  • Test task failure, cancellation, retry, and profile recovery paths.
  • Confirm workspace transfer, audit, and cloud data-boundary details.
  • Validate browser update cadence and API compatibility over upgrades.

Evidence and scope

This comparison uses public product information and Isoline's current foundation plan. Features, limits, and prices can change.

Before you decide

Confirm current pricing, limits, platform support, and contract terms with each vendor. Test any browser with your own authorized workflow before migrating.
