Brave Search beta - Private search that puts you first, not big tech

Brave Search beta doesn’t track you or your queries. Ever. Private, independent, & transparent, Brave Search is the real alternative to Google.
On mobile, desktop, & anywhere the web takes you. Search private. Search with confidence. Search without a trace.

?makers — how will the Attention Token factor in? Will sites that support $BAT be prioritized in results?

@chrismessina - Great question. We’ve mapped out a couple scenarios. They’re all contingent on user adoption and the feedback we receive from our community. We'll have a better sense once more people use Brave Search beta.

Hi, avid Brave user here. Am doing considerable research on Search Engine UX interface design for SMEs and have found an extreme lack of consideration for that type of user. Being located in Vienna and searching for something as simple as PANTS ("Hose" in German) offers little to help-full local search result. I would be interested to connect and have a discussion about your inclusion of regional businesses as this would aid my research and quench my curiosity regarding the future of this version.

@victor_neustetter - Thanks for the feedback, Victor. Localization is tricky. We know we fall short at the moment and are working on ways to improve it. We don't have any positions open around UX or translation, but be sure to check out our careers page for the latest openings: https://brave.com/careers/ Thanks for being a Brave faithful!

Hey @janpio, thanks for this! Adding a custom searches engine in Chromium worked great however the autocomplete query (search.brave.com/api/suggest?q=%s) doesn’t work outside of the Brave site. Is this planned to be supported?

It's fantastic, the monopoly Google has had all these years, it's slowly getting crushed. Clean experience so far, can't wait to see more development

Does the queries go through Google blacklist? Heard about Brave on Joe Rogan podcast.
