  • Built-in ad blocker
  • Advanced privacy controls
  • Global tracking protection
  • Optimized for speed and battery life
  • Available on multiple platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS)

Brave offers a unique approach to online privacy while maintaining compatibility with most websites and extensions designed for Chromium-based browsers.

Brave is a practical default for users who want Chromium compatibility with stronger built-in privacy controls. It is not an anonymity browser; use Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser-style hardened profiles when fingerprint resistance or anonymity-set behavior is the primary goal.
