Are is a be verb. It is a plural be verb.

Are is used with the pronouns we, you, they,

We are very unhappy. They are looking for gold.

and plural noun subjects:

The boys are very unhappy. The boys are looking for gold.

Are can shortened:

we are = we're, they are = they're

We're very unhappy. They're looking for gold.

Are is used as a main verb: We are unhappy.

Or as an auxiliary verb: We are looking for gold
