What it does

Kagi's Orion browser combines WebKit with built-in ad and tracker blocking and support for a selection of Chrome and Firefox extensions.

Orion combines WebKit with built-in ad and tracker blocking and support for a selection of Chrome and Firefox extensions on macOS and iOS/iPadOS. If an extension breaks a site, Compatibility mode suspends extensions for that website and remembers the choice. Individual site cookies can be cleared through Settings > Orion > Manage; Orion > Reset clears broader browser data, including bookmarks.

The browser is free to use. Optional Orion Plus adds release candidates, experimental features and supporter benefits; it does not include Kagi Search. Kagi describes Orion as having no telemetry by default, while its policy separately allows opted-in update checks and on-demand use of built-in Kagi services.
