Obside Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser designed to protect your digital freedom. Built with user privacy as the core principle, Obside ensures that your browsing activity remains yours and yours alone.
In an era where digital surveillance has become the norm, where every click is tracked and every search is logged, Obside stands as a beacon of hope for those who value their privacy. Our mission is simple yet revolutionary: to give users back control over their own data.
No telemetry. No tracking. Your data never leaves your device. Your browsing history, searches and personal information stay encrypted on your own machine, always under your control and never shared with third parties.
Optimized engine for instant page loads and low memory usage. Smart resource management throttles idle tabs to keep CPU usage low and extend battery life on laptops.
Built-in protection against malware and phishing attacks. Every connection is reinforced by post-quantum cryptography that keeps you secure today and against tomorrow's threats.
Transparency is trust. Inspect every line of code on GitHub. Every line of Obside is open to audit and contribute to, so nothing about how the browser works is ever hidden from you.
Obside Premium is a premium subscription package that maximizes your browser privacy, security, and communication capabilities. It unlocks the most demanding features and dedicated infrastructure for people who want the very best that the browser can offer, all in one plan.
RAM-based protection rings and real-time malware scanning. Every file is inspected in memory before it ever touches your disk, stopping threats the moment they arrive instead of after the damage is done.
Much higher quality video and audio communication channels. Priority relays keep your conversations smooth, crisp and reliable even on busy or congested networks.
Unlimited high-speed official VPN servers worldwide without speed limits. No speed caps and no data quotas, so you can stream, download and browse privately from anywhere you are.
Unlimited data transfers in end-to-end encrypted file sharing without size restrictions. Send large files and entire folders directly to other people at full speed.
We envision a world where internet browsing is not a trade-off between convenience and privacy. A world where users can enjoy the full power of the modern web without sacrificing their personal information to corporations and advertisers.
Obside is not just a browser – it's a statement. A statement that users deserve better. That privacy should be the default, not an afterthought. That open-source transparency is the foundation of trust in the digital age.
