Brave launches most powerful search API for AI to date

SMRTR summary

Brave launched a revamped Search API featuring the LLM Context API, which provides highly optimized web search data for AI applications and powers over 22 million daily answers in Brave Search. Testing shows that Brave's Ask Brave chatbot, using an open-weight Qwen3 model with Brave's high-quality context data, outperformed ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, and Perplexity, demonstrating that superior grounding data can make less powerful models beat frontier AI systems.
