Everything on Sureno

Eight sections, each with something new every day.

Sureno Browser

A browser that lets you breathe

Same engine as Chrome, same websites, same muscle memory. Just quieter, kinder and more private.

A quieter start page

Open a new tab and breathe.

No clutter, no autoplay, no endless feed designed to keep you scrolling. Just your shortcuts, the weather in plain words, and the day's stories from publishers you can name, each one a click from the original.

  • Headlines from named publishers, never an unmarked blend
  • Today's explainers, the daily quiz and live updates, quietly
  • Turn any of it off with one switch

About the start page

Sureno News
An assistant that waits to be asked

Help when you want it. Silence when you do not.

The assistant sits beside the page you are reading and stays quiet until you ask it something. Highlight a paragraph and ask what it means. It never reads in the background.

  • Ask about the page, a selection, or a whole project
  • It answers beside the page, so you never lose your place
  • Off until you open it

How the assistant works

This page
Privacy in plain words

The settings that matter, in words that mean something.

One screen, plain language, sensible defaults already on. What each switch does is written next to it, including where its protection stops.

  • Your browsing stays on your computer
  • No account, no sign-in, no profile following you
  • We tell you where a setting stops working, not just where it starts

What we collect (very little)

Privacy

Our promises

Four things that are true today, and that we will not trade away.

Chromium underneath

The same open-source engine as Chrome and Edge. Sites look and work exactly as you expect.

Every tab sandboxed

Site isolation and the Chromium sandbox, untouched. We did not weaken them.

Nothing sent silently

The assistant only reads a page when you ask it to, on that page, that time.

Quiet security updates

Fixes install themselves in the background. No nagging, no version you forgot about.

Switching costs you nothing

Three steps, and the second one is the browser doing the work.

Download and open it

One file, one drag into Applications. Your computer asks once whether you meant to open it; you did.

Bring your things over

Sureno offers to copy your bookmarks, history and open tabs from the browser you use now. Say no and it will not ask again.

Carry on, calmly

Everything loads the way it always did. The difference is how much quieter it feels.

No testimonials yet. Here is the honest version instead.

Sureno is new. Rather than borrow trust with quotes nobody said and numbers nobody counted, here is what it does today and what it does not.

What works today

Real Chromium tabs. The assistant. Projects, notes and Cmd+K. The start page and its news. Bookmark and history import. Background security updates. On sureno.ai: explainers, 102 free private tools, live pages and the daily quiz.

What does not, yet

Chrome extensions. Sync between computers. The Windows version, which is being prepared now. These are on the roadmap with where they really stand.

Questions people ask

Is Sureno built on Chrome?

It is built on Chromium, the open-source engine underneath Chrome and Edge. Pages look and work the same, in the same sandbox, with the same site isolation. Sureno is an independent browser from sureno.ai, not a Chrome extension, theme or modified copy of Chrome.

Is there a Windows version?

It is on its way. Sureno runs on Mac today, and the Windows version is being prepared now. Join the Windows list and we will email you the day it is ready.

Who writes the explainers on sureno.ai?

They are written with the help of AI from numbered, linked sources, then checked automatically for accuracy against those sources, for copying and for clickbait before anything is published. Health and money pages never give advice. Here is exactly how it works.

Are the free tools really private?

Yes. The PDF, image and text tools run inside your own browser. Your files are never uploaded to us or anyone else, which is also why they are fast.

Do I lose my bookmarks and passwords if I switch?

No. The first-run import copies your bookmarks, history and open tabs. Your old browser keeps everything exactly as it was, so you can use both for a week and decide calmly.

What does the assistant do with the page I am reading?

Nothing, until you ask it something. There is no background summarising and no page text uploaded while you browse. See the privacy page for the specifics.

What does it cost?

Sureno is free, and there is no trial that expires. An account is optional. Sign in to keep saved stories, reading history and points. You can read everything without one.

Every question we get

Try a calmer browser for a week

Sureno copies your bookmarks and passwords rather than moving them, so your old browser stays exactly as you left it. If Sureno is not for you, uninstalling takes under a minute.
