Our verdict
AdsPower is a browser profile manager for teams and agencies that need many separate browser identities, and the free plan gives a small set of profiles at no charge. Founded in 2019 and run by SUNFLOWER TECH PTE. LTD., it suits multi-account work rather than everyday consumer privacy.

Pros and cons
Pros
- A free plan with a super-administrator seat that stays free forever, plus a free trial of the paid plan.
- Runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, covering desktop and mobile from one account.
- Profile data is encrypted and stored on the machine, with cloud syncing only on permission.
- Team access and action logs, which help when several people share the same profiles.
Cons
- The free plan limits cover only a limited set of profiles and a super-administrator seat, so real team work means paying.
- Open source is no, so the code behind the browser profiles cannot be read by outside developers.
- Support runs on email, help centre and community only, with no phone line or live chat listed.

Who runs it
AdsPower is run by SUNFLOWER TECH PTE. LTD., which was founded in 2019. Support runs on email, help centre and community, so help comes by email, through the help centre and from the community. The same documentation says profile data is encrypted and stored on the machine, and only moves to the cloud when a team allows it, with access and action logs kept for team accounts.

Frequently asked questions
How much does AdsPower cost?+
The free plan is always available and stays free forever with a limited set of profiles, and a free trial of the paid plan comes before any commitment. Entry to the paid tier starts at $9, which is a modest figure beside the €6.84 typical across the brands ranked here.
What do the free and paid plans give you?+
AdsPower lists free and budget models. The free plan covers a limited set of profiles and a super-administrator seat and stays free forever, while a free trial of the paid plan shows what changes when a team needs more profiles or shared access for several operators.
Which platforms does AdsPower run on?+
It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, so the same account covers desktop and phone use. AdsPower is a browser tool rather than a search engine or an ad blocker, and profile data is encrypted and stored on the device, only syncing to the cloud with permission.
Does AdsPower keep profile data in the cloud?+
The stated policy is that profile data is encrypted and stored locally, and is not synced to the cloud without permission. For team accounts, access and action logs are tracked, which matters when several people work on the same profiles.
Is AdsPower open source?+
Open source is no, so the code behind the browser profiles cannot be inspected by outside developers. Anyone weighing AdsPower for sensitive work relies on the company's own description of its encryption and local storage rather than on readable source.
Who is AdsPower built for?+
It suits teams and agencies that need many separate browser identities, and the free plan covers a small set of profiles for solo use. Team features include access and action logs, which come in handy when several people share the same accounts.
Who runs AdsPower and where?+
The service comes from SUNFLOWER TECH PTE. LTD., whose terms place it in Singapore, and the company was founded in 2019. The terms name no regulator and no licence, so the contract is with the company itself rather than with a licensed provider.
How do I get help from AdsPower?+
Support runs on email, help centre and community: email, the help centre and the community. There is no phone line or live chat listed, so answers arrive as written replies and resolution depends on how quickly the team responds.
