Esper Titanium
Your Android kiosk shows one website to the public. The next visitor shouldn’t find the last one’s session — Esper Titanium is a Chromium browser that locks dedicated Android devices to the sites you allow, starts every session clean and wears your brand — on GMS, AOSP and Esper Foundation hardware alike.

Understand kiosk browsers before you buy one
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
What is a kiosk browser?
A kiosk browser shows only the sites you allow, hides its own controls, and forgets each visitor when they leave.
A stock browser on a public tablet vs Esper Titanium — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | A stock browser on a kiosk | Esper Titanium |
|---|---|---|
| Sites a visitor can reach | Anything a link or the address bar opens | Only allowlisted URLs, refused in the engine |
| What the next user finds | Open tabs, cookies and a signed-in portal | An empty browser, every session |
| Settings and menus | One long-press from the device | Hidden from the person at the screen |
| What the screen shows | A familiar browser with its own logo | Your white-labelled look |
| Hardware without Google | No Play Store, so no managed browser | Runs on AOSP and Esper Foundation |
| What it is NOT | — | An iOS or Windows browser, or sold apart from Deploy |
The cheapest test is a few kiosks on Esper’s 30-day trial: load your allowlist, hand a device to your most curious colleague, and see whether anything escapes.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Engine
Titanium is built on Chromium and installed on dedicated Android hardware, whether a GMS device, a non-GMS AOSP build or Esper’s own Foundation OS on ARM or x86.
Allowlist
Allowed URLs are set as policy and enforced inside the browser engine, so anything not on the list is refused before it renders, rather than hidden by an overlay.
Session
Each session starts from nothing, with Do Not Track and network isolation switched on by default, so one visitor’s pages and sign-ins are not waiting for the next.
Deploy
Titanium is a paid add-on to a Genesis, Bridge or Architect plan; Deploy supplies the device enrolment, kiosk mode and Blueprints that hold the rest of the device’s setup.
A Chromium engine with the allowlist built in — sessions wiped clean, settings hidden, all switched on from Esper Deploy.
Six capabilities. Lock, reset, run.
Esper Titanium turns a dedicated Android device into a single-purpose web kiosk that forgets each visitor.
Only listed sites load
URL allowlisting is enforced at engine level, so a page outside the list is refused rather than covered up by a launcher.
No menus to escape through
Browser settings and menus are hidden from the person at the screen, closing the usual routes out of a web kiosk.
Every session starts empty
Nothing carries over between sessions, so a shared counter or lobby tablet does not hand one visitor’s state to another.
Tracking off from the start
Do Not Track and network isolation are switched on by default, so a new kiosk does not depend on an admin remembering them.
Your brand on the glass
Full white-labelling lets the kiosk present your own look, so customers see a branded screen rather than a browser’s.
GMS or not, ARM or x86
Runs on Google-certified devices, AOSP hardware without Google services, and Esper Foundation builds on ARM or x86.
A shared browser remembers the last user. Titanium starts every session clean.
Here’s what genuinely sets it apart — and exactly where it stops.
The lock sits inside the browser
Many web kiosks are an ordinary browser behind a launcher, and the gaps show at the edges: an outside link, a settings menu. Titanium enforces its URL allowlist at engine level and hides its settings and menus, so the restriction is part of the browser, not a layer drawn over it.
Each visitor meets an empty browser
On a shared tablet the risk is often the person before: a signed-in portal, a half-filled form. Titanium gives every session a clean slate and turns Do Not Track and network isolation on by default, which suits counters, lobbies and check-in points.
Built for Android hardware without Google
Many kiosks and terminals run AOSP builds with no Google Mobile Services, where a Play Store browser is not an option. Titanium runs on GMS and AOSP devices and on Esper’s Foundation OS, including x86 machines converted from Windows, from the same Esper console.
Where it stops
Titanium runs on Android only, although Esper also manages iOS, tvOS, Windows and Linux; kiosks there use the OS’s own modes. It is not sold apart from an Esper Deploy plan, Esper prints no price for it, and there is no official video. Esper’s cloud has no Indian region.
The numbers behind the platform
What your Esper Titanium rollout looks like
Map every web kiosk
List each kiosk’s URLs, including payment and sign-in redirects, and note which devices are GMS, AOSP or Foundation.
Price the add-on with its plan
Ask Esper for Titanium’s per-device rate in writing, alongside the Deploy plan your remote-support needs call for.
Try to break out of it
Load the allowlist on a few kiosks during the 30-day trial, then try to reach settings, other sites and downloads.
Brand it and roll it out
Apply your white-label look, set the kiosk app, and move site by site with a small group of devices at a time.
Review sessions and sites
Check that every session begins empty, prune URLs nobody uses, and confirm the add-on renews at the quoted rate.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“Our self-order screens run an AOSP build with no Play Store. Titanium was the first locked browser we could put on them.”
“Patients sign in at a lobby tablet all day. Knowing the next person starts with an empty browser settled our privacy review.”
“Staff spent an afternoon trying to reach settings and outside sites on the pilot units and got nowhere. That was the test we cared about.”
“Fine on the Android kiosks, but our iPad check-in stands still needed Single App Mode. Plan for two approaches on a mixed fleet.”
Where everyone sits — the grids

Which approach fits you?
Honest fit signals — because the fastest way to lose your trust is to pretend one product wins every scenario.
Choose Esper Titanium if…

- ✓You already manage the fleet with Esper Deploy and want the kiosk browser switched on from the same console
- ✓Every visitor must meet an empty browser, with nothing left from the session before
Compare alternatives if…

- ✓Kiosk policy data must stay in India — Scalefusion is India-hosted and 42Gears offers an India region
Do not expect…
- ✓A list price for Titanium, or a way to buy it without an Esper Deploy plan
- ✓Titanium itself on iOS, Windows or Linux kiosks
- ✓An Esper hosting region in India

What do escaped and unreset kiosks cost you?
Drag the sliders (web-kiosk devices; IT staff-hour cost). Estimates model staff time spent recovering kiosks that users escaped, clearing sessions left behind and re-applying browser settings, at an assumed 1.5 hours per device a year, with 70% of it removed by a browser locked at the engine that starts clean each session. Both figures are assumptions. Illustrative.

Three ways to consume it
Quote only. Esper prints no price for Titanium: its pricing page lists it as a premium add-on on the Genesis, Bridge and Architect plans of Esper Deploy, and it is not sold without one. Deploy itself is published per device per month — Genesis $2, Bridge $4, Architect $6, Enterprise custom — with a 25-device minimum per contract and a 30-day free trial; the billing term is not published. Esper sells in USD and shows no rupee price. TechBag gets the Titanium rate in writing and quotes the total in INR with GST.

The 8 questions to ask every vendor
Take this into your next vendor call — including ours.
Are all the kiosks Android, and which run GMS, AOSP or Esper Foundation? Titanium covers those three alone.
Do any kiosks run iOS, Windows or Linux? Those need the OS kiosk mode or a different browser.
Have you listed every URL each kiosk needs, including the payment page and any sign-in provider?
Has each login and checkout been walked end to end, so no redirect domain is missing from the list?
How many people use each screen in a day, and does your privacy review require a clean session for each?
Who supplies the white-label assets, and has the look been signed off before the first site goes live?
Is North American hosting acceptable for kiosk policy and device data? Esper offers no India region.
Does the quote show Titanium’s rate, the Deploy plan, the 25-device minimum and the term in writing?
