The main Brave Search page is as basic as it gets – there’s just the Brave logo, a search bar, and a link to a settings menu. If you click that Settings menu on the top-right of the search page (the three horizontal lines), you’ll pull up the settings sidebar. You can make a couple of tweaks here, like changing to a dark theme and opting to open li...
Brave Search doesn’t track what you search for or click on, whether you’re on a desktop or mobile device. And since Brave doesn’t collect your data, that means it doesn’t share or sell it, either. Here’s are Brave Search’s privacy features: 1. 100% anonymous search 2. Private browser integration for desktop and mobile 3. Transparency regarding how ...
Brave Search functions as any search engine should. When you use the search page, you’ll enter your query in the search box, and suggested searches will auto-populate. If you’re using the Brave browser, you can search right from the address bar. Above you can see what a results page looks like, and it will look the same whether you’re using the sea...
Brave Search can be used via the dedicated website at search.brave.com, or it can be used with the Brave browser. If you opt to use the Brave browser, you don’t have to use Brave Search – there are six other search engines that you can choose from to set as the default.
Brave Search’s biggest competitor is, of course, Google. Unlike Google, Brave Search doesn’t track what you do or sell your information to trackers. While DuckDuckGo, another top Brave Search competitor, also has anonymous search, it doesn’t use an independent search index like Brave does. How Brave manages to return relevant results without algori...
Brave is striving to do what other browsers won’t (or can’t): Make an independent search engine with reliable results, all while keeping your data totally safe. It’s going to take some time, but if Brave is able to pull it off, it could end up being a contender in both the browser and search engine rings. For now, though, Brave Search is at its mos...

DuckDuckGo positions itself as a search engine that puts privacy first and as such it does not store IP addresses, does not log user information, and uses cookies only when required. Gabriel Weinberg, creator of DuckDuckGo, states: "By default, DuckDuckGo does not collect or share personal information.
Brave Search is the world’s most complete, independent, private search engine. By integrating Brave Search into its browser, Brave offers the first all-in-one browser / search alternative to the big tech platforms. Brave Search is available as the default search engine in Brave or most other major browsers, or via search.brave.com.
- Privacy First. One of the primary reasons I was drawn to Brave Search is its commitment to user privacy. Unlike some other search engines that track your queries and clicks to build a profile for targeted advertising, Brave Search promises no tracking.
- Independent Index. Brave Search is built on its own independent index. This is significant because it means the search results aren’t just repackaged versions of another search engine’s results.
- User Feedback for Rankings. Brave Search has introduced a community-driven approach to refining its search results. Users can provide feedback on search results, influencing future rankings.
- Ad-Free Option. While Brave Search does display ads (it has to sustain itself somehow), there’s an option for an ad-free, subscription-based model. For users who want an entirely ad-free search experience, this is a welcome feature.
After testing the search engine both on my phone and PC, Beating Google is going to be a very long shot, but if Brave integrates BAT (in the right way) and improves the search engine from where it is now, it has a chance of beating Bing or closing the gap to Bing then, it has a chance to be a very decent threat to Google.
