The search results from the privacy-focused search engine have been integrated with the smart chat app Leo in the Brave web browser.
The search results rely on the Search application programming interface with the integration of Leo in the browser, and the search engine confirms that this integration helps people find new information.
Individuals can benefit from this integration to obtain new and updated information, provide additional useful context related to the topic while reading the text, and search for new and related topics to create social media posts.
Brave has confirmed that the integration aims to preserve user privacy by not requiring them to log in.
Additionally, your conversations with the smart chatbot are not stored through its server.
Brave has stated that it does not rely on responses to improve its model, but instead sends requests to an identity-hiding server to protect user privacy.
You can subscribe to the Leo Premium service for $14.99 per month, which will give you higher limits and access to new models. The search engine issues non-linkable tokens when subscribing to the service to protect privacy.
Brave has enhanced its artificial intelligence capabilities in order to attract more users to its browser and search engine.
An AI-powered summary was launched by the search engine for the general search product last year, with the aim of displaying core answers to users more efficiently.
In November 2023, the AI assistant Leo was launched for everyone, and in April, the Answer feature was introduced from the search engine, which uses AI to search for answers to user queries.
AI has been integrated differently in other browsers such as Edge, Opera, Arc, and SigmaOS. Brave seems to be leveraging its unique features that combine the browser and search engine to enhance its services.
