# Octo Browser

> Add a NodeMaven proxy in Octo Browser and attach it to a browser profile.

Octo Browser is an antidetect multi-accounting browser, functioning on both Windows and macOS systems.

By combining Octo Browser with NodeMaven proxies, you can elevate your online endeavors and attain more favorable results.

In Octo Browser, setting up proxies is separate from making browser profiles. This means you can add and remove many proxies independently, then use those proxies with different profiles.

## Set up a NodeMaven proxy in Octo Browser

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add the proxy">
    Click **Proxies** > **Add proxy** to add your proxy details.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Get your NodeMaven credentials">
    You will find your proxy username and proxy password on your NodeMaven page in the **Proxy Setup** section.

    <Note>
      You do not need to manually type the proxy details (host, port, username, password) into Octo Browser settings. NodeMaven proxies are arranged in a format that Octo Browser accepts: `host:port:login:password`.

      After choosing all the details you need, such as Country, Region, City and Session type, copy the proxy details highlighted in red and paste them into the **Host** section of Octo Browser settings.
    </Note>
