Built for Speed and Privacy
Lightweight Speed
By stripping away unnecessary background services and UI bloat, Leef delivers a snappy, responsive experience that makes the most of your hardware.
Privacy-First Design*
Your history stays on your machine. Leef itself collects zero telemetry: no crash reports, no usage pings, no anonymous identifiers sent to us. What you do online is yours alone.
AI-Free Search
Ditch the forced AI Overviews. Leef automatically intercepts and suppresses Google's generated search summaries, giving you a clean, link-first search experience by default.
Built-in Protection
Browse without the distractions. Leef integrates a high-performance engine that blocks ads and trackers automatically, saving you bandwidth and time.
Truly Open Source
Leef is a CC0-licensed project with a completely public codebase. No hidden binaries, no proprietary blobs. Just code you can read, audit, and trust.
Full Web Compatibility
Enjoy the engine that powers the modern web without the corporate overhead. Built on Chromium, most sites and web apps work exactly as expected, running on your terms.
Google is forcing AI Overviews on everyone.
Despite massive user backlash, Google is prioritizing AI-generated summaries over direct web links.
Leef does not play along. We automatically strip AI Overviews out of your search queries, returning you straight to the clean, link-first web.

A browser built for you,
not for advertisers.
Most modern browsers have become delivery vehicles for ads, data mining, and unwanted extras. Leef is a return to form. Built on Electron and Chromium, we provide a world-class engine without the corporate baggage.
Private.
Hard to come by nowadays.
Leef operates on a simple promise: your data is not ours to take. We run no tracking, no syncing, and no telemetry of our own. Just a browser that respects your space.
And it's staying that way. We don't track our users, so we have no idea how many of you are here. We're just happy you found us.
