Pane

Every profile, its own internet.

Releases · Issues

Pane is an Arc-inspired desktop browser built on Electron — a sidebar-first browser where every profile is a fully isolated identity with its own session, proxy, fingerprint, and Chrome extensions.

Features

• Session isolation — cookies, storage, and cache are partitioned per profile; profiles never share data
• Per-profile proxies — each profile routes through its own HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5 proxy; authenticated SOCKS connections use a local relay
• Browser fingerprinting — configurable user agent, WebGL, canvas noise, audio noise, screen, timezone, and locale per profile
• Chrome extensions — install and auto-update extensions from the Chrome Web Store into every profile session
• PIN lock with data wipe — optional bcrypt-hashed PIN; five consecutive failures trigger a 3-pass overwrite of all profile data before relaunch
• Google sign-in via CDP — import Google and YouTube cookies from a local Chrome instance into any profile over the Chrome DevTools Protocol
