Brave Search has launched a new AI-powered chat feature that enables users to ask follow-up questions after their initial search query. As reported by Aisha Malik, the feature builds upon the company’s existing “Answer with AI” summaries by adding an interactive chat bar below search results. Users can now explore topics more deeply without starting new searches, with the AI providing sourced information for each response. The system combines open and internal LLMs to deliver responses while maintaining user privacy, with Brave confirming that queries are not stored or used for profiling. The service currently handles 36 million queries daily, with its AI tool generating 11 million answers.
