Comet

Comet is a Chromium-based web browser designed by Perplexity AI to transform the traditional browsing experience into an active, agentic workflow. Unlike standard browsers that simply display pages, Comet features a deeply integrated AI assistant that works alongside the user to understand context, answer questions, and perform actions directly on websites.

The browser's core capability is its "Comet Assistant," which can autonomously handle complex multi-step tasks such as filling out forms, scheduling meetings, comparing products, and managing emails. Users can interact with the browser using natural language text or voice commands, allowing for a hands-free and more efficient internet experience.

Comet also focuses on minimizing distractions with a built-in native ad blocker and a "Study Mode" tailored for students. It acts as a "thinking partner" that remembers open tabs and browsing history to provide relevant, cited answers and summaries, effectively merging the utility of a search engine with the functionality of a daily web navigator.
