Breadcromb is the developer of Trace, an AI-powered web browser that builds a private knowledge layer from users' reading and uses local-first AI to answer questions, automate tasks, and orchestrate agents within the browser. Trace is offered as a free download and emphasizes privacy and local-first operation.

BrowserOS is an open-source web browser that integrates agentic AI capabilities and runs AI agents locally on users' computers. It is presented as a privacy-first alternative to Chrome.

Bare Browser is a de-Googled Chromium-based web browser for Android developed as a patch series rather than a fork. Its 99 patches remove Google tracking, telemetry, sign-in prompts, and AI integration while retaining desktop browser extensions, including Manifest V2 extensions such as uBlock Origin, Bitwarden, and Dark Reader. It adds background video playback, media saving from sites that normally block downloads, optional handoff to an external download manager, custom search-engine management, link handling that keeps supported links in the browser, and Android video behavior including H.264/AAC support and rotation-lock-aware fullscreen. DuckDuckGo is the default search engine, and the project documents two network connections that remain outside the browser's direct control. The repository states that Bare is not affiliated with Google or the Chromium project.

Helium is a privacy-focused, Chromium-based web browser developed as a heavily modified version of ungoogled-chromium. It provides unbiased ad blocking, removes tracking components, and is designed without added bloat or noise. The project publishes native packages for macOS, Linux, and Windows, with downloads available from its website and source, packaging, tooling, services, and components available on GitHub. Helium is currently in beta. Helium-specific code, patches, and other original content are licensed under GPL-3.0, while imported components retain their original licenses.

Search is a small, fast WebKit browser for macOS developed by Office Commun. It provides a single address-and-search field, tabs, reading mode, picture-in-picture video, bookmarks, history, downloads, built-in ad and tracker blocking, per-site clutter hiding, and password storage in the macOS keychain. It has no account, sync, cloud storage, telemetry, or analytics; browsing data remains on the Mac. The browser uses WebKit and lazily creates each tab's web view, while its ad blocker runs as a compiled WKContentRuleList before network requests are made and its hidden-element rules are injected at document start. It can run Chrome extensions through WebKit's extension engine, adding shims for Chrome APIs that WebKit lacks; extension support requires macOS 15.4 or later. Search supports macOS 14 or later, is distributed as a free download of about 3 MB or through Homebrew, and is licensed under the MIT License. The repository contains a Swift and SwiftUI/AppKit implementation with no dependencies beyond Apple's macOS frameworks.
