Primp is a Python HTTP client that impersonates real web browsers by replicating their TLS fingerprints, HTTP/2 settings, and header ordering. It is a lightweight alternative to curl-cffi for bypassing TLS and HTTP fingerprinting-based bot detection.
Key features include:
- Browser impersonation Can impersonate Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and OkHttp clients by replicating their exact TLS fingerprints (JA3/JA4), HTTP/2 frame settings, header ordering, and other connection-level characteristics.
- HTTP/2 support Full HTTP/2 support with configurable settings that match real browser behavior.
- Lightweight Smaller and simpler than curl-cffi while providing similar impersonation capabilities. Built on Rust for performance.
- Familiar API Provides a requests-like API with Session support, making it easy to adopt for developers familiar with the Python requests library.
- Proxy support HTTP and SOCKS5 proxy support with authentication.
- Cookie management Automatic cookie handling across requests within a session.
Primp fills a similar niche to curl-cffi and hrequests — HTTP clients designed to avoid TLS/HTTP fingerprinting — but takes a Rust-powered approach for better performance. It is particularly useful when you need to bypass bot detection that relies on connection-level fingerprinting without using a full browser.
Undetected chromedriver is custom open source headless browser driver based on Selenium. It extends Selenium headless browsers to be more ressistant to fingeprinting and identification techniquest like: - Cloudflare - Datadome - Imperva And other similar WAF anti-bot systems.
