+
+### BraveWebSearch
+
+A component that uses the Brave Search API to search the web and return results as Haystack Documents.
+
+You need a Brave Search API key from [brave.com/search/api](https://brave.com/search/api/).
+
+### Usage example
+
+```python
+from haystack_integrations.components.websearch.brave import BraveWebSearch
+from haystack.utils import Secret
+
+websearch = BraveWebSearch(
+    api_key=Secret.from_env_var("BRAVE_API_KEY"),
+    top_k=5,
+)
+result = websearch.run(query="What is Haystack by deepset?")
+documents = result["documents"]
+links = result["links"]
+```
+
+#### __init__
+
+```python
+__init__(
+    api_key: Secret = Secret.from_env_var("BRAVE_API_KEY"),
+    top_k: int | None = 10,
+    country: str | None = None,
+    search_lang: str | None = None,
+    extra_params: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
+    timeout: int = 10,
+    max_retries: int = 3,
+) -> None
+```
+
+Initialize the BraveWebSearch component.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- **api_key** (<code>Secret</code>) – Brave Search API key. Defaults to the `BRAVE_API_KEY` environment variable.
+- **top_k** (<code>int | None</code>) – Maximum number of results to return. Maps to the `count` parameter in the Brave API.
+- **country** (<code>str | None</code>) – 2-letter country code to bias search results (e.g. `"US"`, `"DE"`).
+- **search_lang** (<code>str | None</code>) – Language code for search results (e.g. `"en"`, `"de"`).
+- **extra_params** (<code>dict\[str, Any\] | None</code>) – Additional query parameters passed directly to the Brave Search API.
+- **timeout** (<code>int</code>) – Timeout in seconds for the HTTP request. Defaults to 10.
+- **max_retries** (<code>int</code>) – Maximum number of retry attempts on transient failures. Defaults to 3.
+
+#### run
+
+```python
+run(query: str, top_k: int | None = None) -> dict[str, Any]
+```
+
+Search the web using Brave Search and return results as Documents.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- **query** (<code>str</code>) – Search query string.
+- **top_k** (<code>int | None</code>) – Optional per-run override of the maximum number of results.
+  If not provided, the init-time `top_k` is used.
+
+**Returns:**
+
+- <code>dict\[str, Any\]</code> – A dictionary with:
+- `documents`: List of Documents containing search result content.
+- `links`: List of URLs from the search results.
+
+#### run_async
+
+```python
+run_async(query: str, top_k: int | None = None) -> dict[str, Any]
+```
+
+Asynchronously search the web using Brave Search and return results as Documents.
