About Brave Search
Brave Search is an independent, privacy-focused search engine with built-in AI summarization. Unlike Google or Bing, Brave builds its own search index rather than relying on Big Tech's data. Its AI feature — Summarizer — gives direct answers with sources at the top of results. Brave Leo, the AI assistant, is built into the Brave browser and answers questions, summarizes pages, and generates content without data tracking.
