Vanta is a Chromium browser built around genuine privacy defaults. Websites work as expected. Trackers don't.
In alpha. Chrome-compatible. Windows · macOS · Linux.
Built on Chromium.
Built differently.
Same engine as Chrome. Not the same browser. The difference is what we removed, what we replaced, and what we built on top.
No Google services
Safe Browsing, Translate API, sync infrastructure, and crash reporting are disabled or replaced with privacy-respecting alternatives. Chromium without the surveillance layer.
Tracker blocking built in
A curated blocklist runs at the network level. Ads and trackers are filtered before they load — no extension required. The list updates locally.
Fingerprinting resistance
Canvas, WebGL, and audio fingerprinting APIs are hardened by default. Your browser is harder to uniquely identify across sites, even when cookies are cleared.
Chrome extensions work
Chromium compatibility means your existing Chrome extensions work without modification. The Chrome Web Store is accessible. We don't restrict which extensions you install.
Faster by less
Pages load faster when they're not waiting on tracking scripts. Blocking third-party requests isn't just a privacy benefit — it's a measurable reduction in page weight.
Nothing you didn't ask for
No integrated AI, no news feed, no wallet, no toolbar buttons promoting the developer's other services. Just the web, with a clean interface that stays out of your way.
No telemetry.
No exceptions.
Most "private" browsers still phone home. Vanta doesn't. We've audited Chromium's network endpoints and disabled every mechanism that sends data to Google or third parties.
