Brave, under the hood, is a Chromium-based web browser which means that its performance and web compatibility are very similar to other browsers based on Chromium.
Features and Highlights
Browse Faster
It blocks trackers and intrusive ads that can slow you down on the web.
Browse Safer
It keeps you and your information safer, effectively shielding you from 3rd party tracking and malvertisement.
Browse Better
With the web navigator, you can choose whether to see ads that respect your privacy or pay sites directly. Either way, you can feel good about helping fund content creators.
Blocks harmful advertising
There’s a new ad game in town. It’s called “Malvertising”. The latest display ad technology can install malware on your laptop without your knowledge. But not with Brave watching your back.
Redirects sites to HTTPS
“We’ve integrated HTTPS Everywhere into every internet browser to make sure you are always moving your bits across the safest possible pipe.”
Blocks Tracking Pixels and Tracking Cookies
“Do you ever get that feeling that someone is watching you when you see an ad for something you bought a few days ago? We make sure you aren’t being tracked while you shop online and browse your favorite sites”.
