What is Warp?

Warp is hardly just a browser, it aims to be a fully integrated operational environment, one in which all tasks can be achieved.

It is a fresh take on human-data relationship, implemented as a novel JavaScript environment.

Unlike traditional browsers that mostly look and work the same, Warp is designed ground up to feel modern, fast, and focused on your privacy and control.

It offers a more secure way to browse, with a private mode that leaves no traces on your device. This goes beyond regular “incognito” windows—your sessions stay isolated and temporary, so your activity isn’t tracked or stored. Ads and pop-ups are blocked by default, giving you a cleaner, calmer experience online.

Warp also makes everyday browsing more useful. You can create simple apps and shortcuts from the sites and tools you use most—without needing to install anything. These apps live inside Warp and are easy to open, manage, and customize.

What truly sets Warp apart is that every feature—tabs, apps, layouts, and more—can be controlled and automated with simple JavaScript. This means you can script your browser to do repetitive tasks, build entire workflows, or even let AI agents act on your behalf. No other browser exposes this level of flexibility to both humans and programs.

Today, major AI companies like OpenAI or Claude build their own limited front-end apps tied to their models. Warp is different. It’s a vertical platform that provides tools any AI can use to create, control, and publish apps directly inside the browser. Whether you’re an individual user or an AI developer, Warp is built to support the next generation of intelligent software.

Warp also includes built-in social features. You can share files, apps, or even full browser setups with other users. It’s an easy way to collaborate, distribute content, and build communities around the tools you create.

While other browsers are focused on ads and data collection, Warp gives you something different: privacy, flexibility, and the power to create, automate, and share—all in one place.
