Norton™ Neo

Norton™ Neo

Your first safe AI-native browser

Overview

What it is

Norton Neo is the world’s first safe, AI-native browser, built to combine powerful intelligence with industry-leading security and privacy protection equipped with Norton Shield. Instead of juggling tabs, tools, and apps, Neo integrates AI directly into your browsing experience—helping you search, understand, and complete tasks seamlessly in one place.

Intent

I need it when

Protect against modern tracking and fingerprinting while browsing

Norton Neo blocks and randomizes invisible tracking signals (screen size, fonts, GPU behavior, audio settings) by default globally across all sites. Built-in VPN powered by Norton encrypts all traffic with no separate app or subscription. Anti-fingerprinting and ad blocking are always active with no setup required.

Streamline productivity with AI-powered browsing on devices with neural processors

Norton Neo supports local AI processing on devices with neural processors, delivering performance comparable to ChatGPT 5 while keeping computation on-device. This enables fast AI features without relying solely on cloud services, ideal for multitasking and research workflows.

Browse the web with integrated AI assistance while maintaining strong privacy protections

Norton Neo combines AI-native browsing with privacy-by-design architecture. Built-in VPN, anti-fingerprinting, and ad blocking run by default without extensions. AI chats and browsing history stay local; data is never used to train models. Users control what Neo remembers and what it forgets.

Use AI capabilities without compromising personal data security or IP privacy

Norton Neo routes AI requests server-side so providers never receive user IP address or browser headers. Zero retention policy with all AI providers. Sources are shown on every AI summary. Built and maintained by Gen Digital, the team behind Norton, ensuring security-first architecture.

Accelerate research and information gathering without switching between multiple tabs and tools

Norton Neo's Magic Box adapts to user intent, delivering AI answers and smart suggestions before typing completes. Universal Search finds content across tabs, history, and AI chats instantly. Split View and Peek features keep users moving without breaking focus during research workflows.
