How We Scrape Brave Search for You
- You send
Brave Search pages, filters, fields and a schedule
- We run the scrapers
Built, monitored and repaired by our team
- You receive the data
API, JSON feed or CSV, XLSX and JSON files
You send keywords, regions, languages and devices, plus any Goggle to apply. We run the Brave Search scraper from egress inside each region, render the page so AI answers and widgets load, and record every block with its position. Brave screens traffic at its own firewall, answers suspected bots with a proof-of-work captcha and turns some VPN and Tor exits away outright, so each capture is checked as a complete results page before it is stored. Anti-bot handling, proxy rotation and CAPTCHA solving are part of the service.
Delivery is CSV, JSON, XLSX or an endpoint, pushed to S3, SFTP or your warehouse.
Brave Search Data From Every Block on the Results Page
We extract Brave Search data from the rendered results page, one row per element, and stamp every row with the keyword, region, language, Safe Search level, device and any Goggle in force.
- Web resultsPosition, title, URL, site name and favicon, snippet, and the date label where Brave prints one.
- AI answerWhether one appeared, its text and the sources it cites. Brave always shows where an answer comes from, so the citation list is the part worth tracking over time.
- DiscussionsThread title, forum and URL for each Reddit or Stack Exchange thread Brave surfaces. Usernames and post authors stay out.
- News and videosHeadline, source, date label and thumbnail, in the order Brave interleaves them with web results.
- Snippets and infoboxFeatured snippets at the top with the page they quote, and the side-column infobox with its source links.
- Local resultsBusiness name, address, rating, opening hours, price range and category, which Brave enriches in part with Tripadvisor data. Business records only.
- Paid and partner slotsBrave Search Ads, marked as ads, plus the flights widget that links out to Kayak, Amazon product ads on shopping queries and Booking links, each flagged so organic rank is read net of them.
Positions are kept per block and for the page as a whole, so a third organic result can be read against the AI answer and the Discussions block above it. Brave Search Premium members, and Brave Rewards users with a connected wallet, see no search ads by default, so the ad count we record is the one an ordinary visitor gets.
Brave Search API From ScrapeIt: What Each Row Carries
The ScrapeIt Brave Search API serves the collected results page as JSON from an endpoint we host, refreshed on the schedule you set. Our Brave Search API results hold one row per block - web results, the AI answer with its cited sources, Discussions threads, news and videos, featured snippets, the infobox, local results, place search on the Maps tab and paid slots - each stamped with keyword, region, language, Safe Search level, device and any Goggle in force. Access is by your own ScrapeIt Brave Search API key, and documentation of every field comes with the dataset. Images tab results can join the same feed, so the endpoint also serves as a Brave Search image search API for your team.
Every capture is the page a visitor in that region saw, ads and partner widgets included, with positions kept per block and for the page as a whole. The same data also comes as CSV or XLSX files or straight into your database.

- From €169 a month
Brave Search is the search engine Brave Software runs at search.brave.com, built into the Brave browser. Everything a Brave Search scraper reads comes from one source: the Brave Search index, which Brave put at over 30 billion pages in late September 2026, kept fresh by more than 100 million page updates a day. Brave calls it a completely independent index tuned to cut SEO spam, and counts it among only three independent, global-scale indexes in the western world. By default every web result is served from it, not bought from Google or Bing.
Two feeds build it. The Brave Search crawler does not identify itself separately, so sites that admit only Google do not turn it away, and it skips any page Googlebot may not crawl, so a site that shuts out Googlebot is missing here too. The Web Discovery Project, an opt-in in the Brave browser, adds anonymous signals from volunteers: queries, result clicks, visited URLs and time on page. Brave says it does not filter, downrank or censor results beyond what the law requires, such as copyright takedowns, right to be forgotten requests and government orders.
A visitor sees tabs for Ask, All, Images, News, Videos, Maps and Goggles. For certain searches the All tab opens with an AI answer that cites its sources, and Brave Search Discussions pulls in Reddit and Stack Exchange threads when a query scores as discussion-worthy. Featured snippets, an infobox, local results and clearly marked private ads fill the rest, while Ask Brave turns a query into a chat with a Deep Research mode.

Full plan detailsBrave Search Rankings, Goggles and AI Answer Citations
The Brave Search engine ranks its own index with its own models, so a position on Google or Bing predicts little here. Brave's help pages give site owners a noindex route and a re-fetch request, but nothing like a search console report, so positions have to be collected. Rank tracking on Brave also reaches past Brave's own visitors: the same index grounds the AI answers on the results page and in Ask Brave, so a Brave position is an early reading of what AI search will cite.
One query can hold many rankings. Brave Search Goggles re-rank the index with open rule files hosted on GitHub or GitLab, using $boost, $downrank and $discard against sites and URL patterns. The discovery page lists popular Goggles such as Tech blogs, No Pinterest, Rust programming and the AllSides pair News from the Left and News from the Right, and each one reorders the page. Rerank does the same for a single visitor, with raise and discard rules kept in cookies.
- SEO teams watch the default ranking by region, plus chosen Goggles for niche audiences.
- Brand teams see which sources and threads Brave's AI answers cite for their name.
- Publishers measure how much of the page sits above their first organic link.

Brave Search Scraping, Scoped Before It Starts
ScrapeIt is a managed web scraping agency: engineers who build, host and repair collectors and deliver the data, not a tool. A Brave Search project opens with three questions - which blocks you need, in which regions, and under which Goggles - because the answers decide what we render, where the egress sits and what each row carries.
The first delivery is a trial set of one keyword list in two regions, and the price is fixed before full collection starts.
FAQ
Still unsure? Write to info@scrapeit.io
Do you offer a Brave Search API?
Yes. The ScrapeIt Brave Search API returns positions, titles, URLs, snippets, AI answers with their sources and ad slots as JSON from an endpoint we host, refreshed on the schedule you set. The same data also comes as CSV or XLSX files or straight into your database.
Is there a free tier, and how does your Brave Search API pricing work?
The project assessment is free, and a sample can be ordered before any schedule starts. After that the ScrapeIt Brave Search API comes with the data plan: plans start from EUR 169 a month, or EUR 199 for a one-time extract, and the price is fixed before full collection starts.
Which countries and languages does Brave Search cover?
The results page offers 38 countries plus All regions, from the US, UK, Germany and France to Brazil, India, Japan and Singapore. Left alone, Brave sets the region from the visitor's IP, and with anonymous local results on, local queries resolve to a general location taken from that IP. The interface comes in 49 languages, and the loc: and lang: search operators filter further. We run each region from egress inside that country, so rankings match what people there see.
Can Brave Search results be tracked daily, and under a Goggle?
Yes. Daily suits most keyword lists, weekly suits stable reference queries, and a short list around a launch or breaking story can run hourly. A Goggle is named by the URL of its rule file and has to be registered with Brave before use; we store that URL on every row, so default and re-ranked positions sit side by side. Files arrive as CSV, JSON or XLSX, or through an endpoint.
Is it legal to scrape Brave Search?
Yes. We collect only publicly available data - everything a visitor sees on Brave Search, from positions, titles, URLs and snippets to AI answers with their sources, Discussions threads, local results and ads - and we collect it legally. Usernames, post authors and other personal data stay out.
