Brave browser keeps growing, crosses new milestone: 100 million users
"It's been almost 10 years since Brave launched, and slowly but surely the privacy-focused web browser is attracting more and more users. It's been a long road with some ups and downs, but it's paying off. According to a recent company blog post, Brave says its browser has crossed a new milestone: 100 million active monthly users. That's as of September 2025, representing a huge jump up from the 50 million users milestone it reached back in 2021. That's a four-year doubling!"
""Across the globe, users are choosing privacy and control over their online experience, instead of Big Tech's tracking and abuse," said Brave CEO Brendan Eich. "Every product we've launched since our browser-our search engine, our premium products, our ad platform-has been built with privacy protections." Meanwhile, the post also mentions that Brave Search-a privacy-focused alternative to Google Search-now serves over 20 billion search queries per year. That's compared to the 2.3 billion annual search queries served back in 2021, representing an 8.7-fold growth."
Brave launched almost ten years ago as a privacy-focused web browser and has steadily attracted more users. The browser reached 100 million monthly active users by September 2025, doubling from 50 million in 2021. Brave Search now handles over 20 billion queries per year, up from 2.3 billion in 2021, an 8.7-fold increase. The company emphasizes privacy protections across products including the browser, search engine, premium offerings, and ad platform. Built-in browser features prioritize user security and privacy with ad blocking, tracking protection, options to disallow JavaScript and cookies, blocking Windows Recall, and private browsing via the Tor network.
