Brave is een webbrowser die is gebaseerd op Chromium en wordt ontwikkeld door Brendan Eich, bedenker van JavaScript en een van de oprichters van Mozilla. Brave richt zich op het verbeteren van de onlineveiligheid en biedt een alternatief systeem voor het financieel ondersteunen van contentaanbieders. Het idee daarachter is dat reclame vaak de grootste inkomstenbron van een website is, maar dat veel mensen vanwege opdringerige reclames adblockers gebruiken en websites inkomsten mislopen. De laatste stabiele uitgave is 1.3.115, het changelog is echter nog niet verder bijgewerkt dan 1.3.113.
