Setup prerequisites

Services you need to sign up for

Your license covers the TheBotLord desktop app. Antidetect, CAPTCHA solving, and proxies come from separate providers. Create those accounts, add the credentials in the app, then follow the checklist below.

Before you install

Required services before you run the bot

Your TheBotLord license covers the desktop app only. You need separate paid accounts for antidetect (step 1) and CAPTCHA solving (step 2). Proxies (step 3) and a VPS (step 4) are optional but recommended for production and 24/7 runs. Sign up, enter credentials in the app, and work through the steps below in order.

Minimum to start: complete steps 1 and 2. Add step 3 for production traffic; add step 4 if you need always-on hosting. When finished, open your product guide to install and configure the bot.

Setup checklist — complete in order

00 of 4 complete — mark each step when done
  1. 1

    Step 1 — Antidetect browser

    Create an AdsPower account and subscribe to the 50 profiles plan

    The bot runs in isolated browser profiles. AdsPower (or MultiLogin) manages those profiles.

    Required minimum

    Use at least the 50 profiles plan. Lower tiers run out of profile slots during normal use.

    What to do

    1. 1.Open the signup link below and create an AdsPower account.
    2. 2.Subscribe to the 50 profiles plan or higher.
    3. 3.Install the AdsPower desktop app on the machine that will run the bot.
    4. 4.In the bot app, open Configuration and connect AdsPower (local API).

    MultiLogin is supported in Configuration if you already have seats.

  2. 2

    Step 2 — CAPTCHA solver

    Choose a CAPTCHA solver and add your API key to the bot

    CAPTCHAs appear during runs. A solver keeps workers from stalling.

    Required minimum

    Add about $5–10 USD prepaid balance after signup so solves are available during runs.

    What to do

    1. 1.Pick any provider below and create an account.
    2. 2.Add $5–10 USD prepaid balance (or follow the provider’s minimum).
    3. 3.Copy your API key from the provider dashboard.
    4. 4.In the bot app, open Configuration → CAPTCHA, select the solver, paste the key, and save.

    Providers you can use — pick one:

    CapMonster

    Browser extension CAPTCHA solver — add ~$5–10 USD balance

    Get API key

    CapSolver

  3. 3

    Step 3 — Proxies (optional)

    Optional

    Choose a proxy provider and add proxies in the bot

    Rotating residential or mobile IPs reduce detection. Useful for production; you can skip this for quick local tests.

    Note

    Optional for local testing. Recommended for production — use rotating residential or mobile IPs, not your home connection.

    What to do

    1. 1.Pick any provider below and create an account.
    2. 2.Purchase a residential or mobile proxy plan for your expected volume.
    3. 3.Copy your proxy host, port, username, and password (or proxy list).
    4. 4.In the bot app, open Proxies, enter the details, and test the connection.

    Providers you can use — pick one:

    TrustProxy

    Residential and mobile proxies — reliable rotation

    Sign up

    IPRoyal

    Residential, mobile, and datacenter proxies

    Sign up

    Decodo

    Residential and mobile proxy network

    Sign up

    Webshare and GridPanel also work if you already use them.

  4. 4

    Step 4 — Windows VPS (optional)

    Optional

    Rent a Windows VPS if you need the bot running around the clock

    A VPS keeps campaigns running when your local PC is off or asleep.

    Note

    8 GB RAM minimum on the VPS — not 2 GB. Windows Server needs an open RDP session for non-headless profiles.

    What to do

    1. 1.Open the plans link below and choose a Windows VPS with at least 8 GB RAM.
    2. 2.Connect via RDP, reboot after upgrade if you resized, and confirm several GB free in Task Manager.
    3. 3.Install AdsPower (or MultiLogin) and the bot on the server; test one profile manually before automating.
    4. 4.Keep the RDP/desktop session active while workers run.

    ProfitServer for budget VPS. ubiDesktop for a full cloud Windows desktop.
