What is Brave Search?

Brave Search is a privacy-focused search engine created by the same developers as the Brave Browser, currently operating ad-free. In the future, it intends to introduce a model that could either feature advertisements or offer a subscription service that completely removes them.

The Brave Search API allows developers to leverage one of the fastest-growing independent search engines, providing access to a comprehensive index of billions of web pages through a single API request. Users can start using this service for free, with the option of making up to 1 query per second and a cap of 2,000 queries monthly. As one of the few genuinely independent search engine providers worldwide, Brave is acknowledged for its remarkable expansion within the search engine market. The API supplies high-quality, actionable data, enabling users to develop a variety of applications, from traditional search engines to innovative AI solutions. Moreover, as the default search engine in the Brave browser, Brave Search receives consistent updates via its Web Discovery Project, which ensures a steady stream of new information. This continuous improvement not only enhances the user experience but also solidifies Brave Search's position within the competitive landscape of search engines.

    "Brave"-themed version of DuckDuckGo

    Date: Aug 12 2021
    Summary

    I don't see much difference between this and DuckDuckGo, but I am all for more anonymous web searching tools out there.

    Positive

    Anonymous, privacy centered search, not unlike DuckDuckGo. Built by the team that made the brave browser, which makes sense - that's a privacy centered browser! UI is well made.

    Negative

    It's not as well known and is in beta stage so it just needs time to improve. It uses (anonymous) Google searches as a fallback when it doesn't yield good search results itself (if you enable that setting).
