World’s First Safe AI-Native Browser

AI should work for you, not the other way around. Yet most AI tools still make you do the work first—explaining context, rewriting prompts, and starting over again and again.

Norton Neo is different. It is the world’s first safe AI-native browser, built to understand what you’re doing as you browse, search, and work—so you don’t lose value to endless prompting. You can prompt Neo when you want, but you don’t have to over-explain—Neo already has the context.

Why Neo is different

• Context-aware AI that reduces prompting

• Privacy and security built into the browser

• Configurable memory — you control what’s remembered

As AI gets more powerful, Neo is built to make it useful, trustworthy, and friction-light.

Anthropic has added direct Figma export to Claude Code.
