A browser optimized for development

Blinze is an open-source web browser optimized for performance and privacy. Designed for developers and built on modern web standards.

Philosophy

Browsers stopped being tools.
We're changing that.

Web browsers are an essential part of one's computer (and especially for developers). Modern browsers are no longer built around the user. They are shaped by advertising models, vendor lock-in, and the need to collect more data from users like you. They track your activity across the web, bake AI everywhere they can, and often tie your data to their own platforms. Performance, clarity, and control have become secondary concerns.

Chrome, Edge, and Firefox are technically impressive, but their design is shaped by business incentives more than developer needs. Features are added for engagement or ecosystem control, not clarity or predictability. Developers end up working around the browser instead of the browser working for them.

Blinze is built on a simpler idea: a browser should be a fast, predictable tool you can trust. It should do exactly what you ask; nothing more and nothing less.

Blinze is a browser that respects your attention, your privacy, and your workflow.
