Brave

Brave is a privacy-first technology company that makes a fast, open-source, Chromium-based web browser that blocks ads and trackers by default. Founded in 2015 by JavaScript creator Brendan Eich and engineer Brian Bondy, Brave has grown into a full privacy suite: an independent search engine (Brave Search), a built-in AI assistant (Leo), a Web3 crypto wallet, a VPN, and an opt-in advertising model powered by the Basic Attention Token (BAT) that pays users and creators. In 2025 the browser passed 100 million monthly active users.
