About

I’m Archit Gupta, an AI & ML student at VIT Chennai who likes building things that sit between research and real use. I go by Cyberarc online, and my GitHub work includes Sandbox Browser and other projects around AI, systems, and safer developer workflows. I’m most interested in making advanced ideas feel usable, not just impressive on paper.

AMA: How I built proxy chaining and sandboxing into a Chromium wrapper

Hey everyone! I'm Archit, the solo builder behind Sandbox Browser a wrapper around Chromium that adds a full privacy and network control layer on top of the browser.

Since this is a technically curious community, I wanted to open up an AMA specifically about the engineering side. Here's a quick overview of what's under the hood then ask me anything.

Why I built privacy controls directly into the browser itself

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Archit, a CS student from India and the solo builder behind Sandbox Browser. I wanted to share the honest story of why this exists.

For a while I kept running into the same problem. Whenever I needed a controlled browsing environment for testing or research, I'd end up with a VPN app in one window, a proxy extension in another, a separate DNS tool somewhere else and none of it feeling reliable or truly isolated. The browser had no idea what was happening at the network layer beneath it.

Sandbox Browser - Chromium browser with proxy chaining & sandbox controls

Sandbox Browser is an open-source wrapper around Chromium that adds a full privacy and network control layer on top of the browser. It brings together an embedded SOCKS5 proxy, Windows AppContainer sandboxing, Psiphon auto-launch and proxy chaining, a VPN-style toolbar toggle, split tunneling, DNS-over-HTTPS, custom HTML/CSS parsers, and TLS fingerprint randomization — all working as one controlled browsing environment for developers, security researchers, and privacy-focused users.
