Cloudflare has launched Speed Brain, a new feature that speeds up web page loading by prefetching content users are likely to visit next, reducing load times by about 45%.

Why it matters: Speed Brain cuts page load times significantly, improving user experience and reducing bounce rates on websites.

The big picture: This feature leverages the Speculation Rules API and Cloudflare’s global CDN to prefetch static content safely and efficiently.

Stunning stat: Speed Brain reduces Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) by up to 75% in lab tests with an initial conservative model.

Commenters say: Users appreciate the potential for faster browsing and seamless integration, while some note current browser support limitations and emphasize the need for careful cache management.
