n8n community node package & CLI for antidetect browser (AdsPower / MoreLogin / GoLogin) multi-profile automation cost benchmarking. Author: CloudBench Research · MIT · v1.0.1.

The Pain: Profile Farms Bleed Ops Budgets

Multi-account operations (e-commerce storefronts, social media matrices, ad verification) die on infrastructure cost. The DIY route — one Windows VPS at $14/mo per 10 profiles plus a virtual assistant spending ~4 minutes/day per profile manually launching vehicle browsers, switching cookies and closing sessions at $8.00/hr — is the single largest line item after traffic buying. A managed antidetect browser subscription with a Local REST API collapses that to a plan fee while letting n8n drive every session programmatically.

Concrete loss example (200 profiles)

• 20 Windows VPS × $14 = $280/mo hosting.
• VA workload: 200 × 4 min × 30 days ≈ 400 hours/mo × $8.00/hr = $3,200/mo.
• Total manual farm ≈ $3,480/mo, versus $19–$149 on managed plans — the farm alone can silently burn over $40,000/year and still leak fingerprints via generic RDP stacks.

TCO Comparison by Scale (monthly, USD)

| Scale | Manual VM Farm (hosting + VA @ $8/hr) | AdsPower | MoreLogin | GoLogin | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 50 profiles | $70 + $800 = $870 | $110.25 | $72 | $109 | | 200 profiles | $280 + $3,200 = $3,480 | $447.75 | $297 | $134 | | 1000 profiles | $1,400 + $16,000 = $17,400 | $2,247.75 | $1,497 | $334 |

Model assumptions: 1 VPS per 10 profiles, 4 min/session/day per profile; AdsPower $9 base + 5 included profiles + $2.25/profile extra; MoreLogin free 2-profile starter + $1.50/profile; GoLogin $99 base (100 profiles included) + $0.25/extra profile + $10/seat. The 1000-profile farm costs more per year than most teams' entire ad budget — switching providers is a one-weekend migration.

n8n HTTP Request Node JSON (AdsPower Local API)

{
  "name": "AdsPower Local API - Start Browser",
  "type": "n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest",
  "typeVersion": 4.2,
  "parameters": {
    "method": "GET",
    "url": "http://local.adspower.net:50325/api/v1/browser/start?user_id={{ $json.user_id }}"
  }
}

Point the same pattern at MoreLogin (http://127.0.0.1:40000/api/v1/...) or GoLogin's cloud API for provider-neutral workflows.

Importable n8n Workflow JSON (complete)

Paste this into n8n → Workflows → Import from Clipboard. It reads a profile list from a spreadsheet, starts each browser session through the AdsPower Local API, waits, then closes them — a hands-off rotation loop.

Run the AdsPower client (with Local API enabled) on the same host as n8n, or proxy local.adspower.net accordingly. Workflow execution time scales linearly with profile count; the VA cost of the same task scales linearly too — which is exactly the gap this package benchmarks.

FAQ

Which plans does the benchmark assume? AdsPower Growth ($9 base, 5 included, $2.25/extra profile), MoreLogin's free starter (2 profiles, $1.50/extra), and GoLogin's real tiered model: $99 base with 100 profiles included, $0.25 per extra profile, plus a $10 seat fee. Prices drift; always confirm on the vendor's site before committing.

Does the VA rate really matter that much? Yes — at $8.00/hr and 4 focused minutes per profile per day, a 200-profile matrix needs ~400 hours/mo of pure clicking. That is over $3,000/mo of recurring human cost that API-first subscriptions eliminate entirely.

Where does the workflow run? Any n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud) that can reach the provider's local or cloud API. Cloud n8n users should enable the vendor's cloud API endpoint instead of the local one.

Is the Local API concurrent-safe? AdsPower serializes browser starts per profile; stagger requests with a Wait node (as in the workflow above) and respect provider rate limits.

Can I benchmark without installing ads? Yes — npx -y n8n-nodes-adspower --profiles 1000 --json runs the whole model offline in under a second.
