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.

I built Sandbox Browser because I wanted something simple: a browser that could open blocked or risky websites without putting my PC at risk, without turning everything slow, and without stripping out Google services I still use. Most setups I tried felt messy — one tool for isolation, another for proxies, another for bypassing blocked networks — and the experience was never smooth. So I started building a Chromium-based browser that brings those pieces together in one place, with stronger sandboxing, proxy chaining, and lightweight controls that feel built-in instead of bolted on. Curious where this feels most useful to you: safer browsing, bypassing blocked sites, or just having more control in one browser?

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.

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.
