UX Research Intern
About Brave
Brave is on a mission to protect the human right to privacy online
We’ve built a free web browser that blocks creepy ads and trackers by default, a private search engine with a truly independent index, a browser-native crypto wallet, and a private ad network (opt-in!) that directly rewards you for your attention
And we’re just getting started
Already 50 million people have switched to Brave for a faster, more private web
Millions more switch every month
The internet is a sea of ads, hackers, and echo chambers
Big Tech makes huge profits off our data, and tells us what’s true and what’s not
Brave is fighting back
