ProxyDesk. One local address for your proxies.

Point any app on your machine at one SOCKS5 and HTTP address. ProxyDesk rotates across your proxies and brings dead ones back.

What it does today

  • One local address

    Every app on the machine can use the same SOCKS5 and HTTP address. You change the proxy in the app once, not the list.

  • Rotation across your proxies

    Requests are spread over the proxies you added. You do not write the rotation yourself.

  • Dead proxies recover on their own

    A proxy that fails is taken out, tested again, and returned to rotation when it works.

  • Copy-paste setup

    Snippets for curl, Python, Playwright and browsers, already filled in with your local address.

  • Import with a preview

    Paste a list and see how each line was read before anything is added. Run a batch test and share the report.

  • Activity log you can export

    See what went through the app and export it to CSV.

Light and dark

Each screen follows the same theme as your dashboard, in either mode.

ProxyDesk questions

Does it route all my traffic?

No. Only apps you point at the local address use it. Everything else on the machine connects as it does today.

Is traffic ever sent direct?

No. If no proxy is available, the request fails instead of going out on your own connection.

Does it support UDP?

No. The local address handles TCP through SOCKS5 and HTTP. UDP is not supported.

Will my system warn me when I install it?

Possibly. Windows may show an unsigned-app warning. The macOS build is not notarized yet, so open it with right-click, then Open. Both are expected today.

Where do I download it?

From the desktop app page in your dashboard, after you sign in. It lists the build for each platform.
