# Meet Kit, your companion for a new internet era

**[Mozilla](https://daily.dev/sources/mozilla)** · 4 min read · 88 upvotes · 16 comments

## Summary

Mozilla has introduced Kit, a new visual mascot and companion character for Firefox. Kit is a fox-like creature (drawing from both fox and red panda attributes) designed to appear in welcoming or encouraging moments within the browser, on Mozilla's website, blog, social media, and community events. Created by illustrator Marco Palmieri in partnership with agency JKR, Kit was deliberately hand-crafted — not AI-generated — with distinctive design choices like no mouth and an expressive tail. Kit is not an AI assistant or chatbot, but a brand character meant to make Firefox's user-first, privacy-respecting values feel more visible and approachable.

> Yes, let's spend money on making Firefox more eye-catching and freshly branded instead of making it a better browser that would draw people in because, you know, the browser is actually good...

> At least it's not an AI assistant (yet). Otherwise it you be the first thing I'd disable after the update.
