Anthropic appears to be using Brave to power web search for its Claude chatbot
Earlier this week, Anthropic rolled out a web search function for his AI-driven chatbot platform, Claude, who brought the bone in line with many of his rivals. It was not immediately clear which search index the function could feed – a possibility was that anthropic had developed his. But proof suggests that it is brave search, the search engine that is maintained by browser developer Brave.
When spotted By software -engineer Antonio Zugaldia On Friday, Anthropic added “Brave Search” to the “Subprocessor list” in her documentation this week -the list of anthropic partners who process Claude -data. British programmer Simon Willison report That at least one search in Claude and Brave identical quotes returned. Willison too found That Web Search function of Claude contains a parameter called “BravSearchparams.”
We have contacted anthropic and will update this message when we hear again.
Brave supports at least the other Chatbot’s search functionality: Mistral’s Chatbot Platform Le Chat. In February Brave and Mistral announced that Le Chat Would use Brave’s search -Api For live web results.
Some AI companies keep information about their search index partners close to the chest, possibly for competitive reasons. OpenAi has a collaboration with Bing, but uses other non -known sources to also feed the seeker experience in Chatgpt.
