Comet by Perplexity AI: the smarter AI browser
There’s a new player in the world of AI-powered browsing, and it’s not just an upgrade to your existing setup. It’s a rethink of how we engage with knowledge online.
This month, we’re exploring Comet, the latest browser developed by Perplexity AI. More than a search tool, Comet helps you ask better questions, find trustworthy answers, and organize insights in ways that actually make sense for how people think and work.
What is Comet?
Comet is a Chromium-based browser designed to make researching and learning online easier, faster, and more intelligent. Built by the team behind Perplexity AI’s conversational search engine, Comet transforms your typical browsing experience into something far more helpful.
Rather than returning endless search results, Comet gives you direct, well-sourced answers.
It pulls information from across the web and summarizes it into clean, readable responses. When you want to dig deeper, the citations are already there.
How it works
You start with a question or topic. Comet’s AI scans trusted sources and responds with clear summaries, links, and supporting data. From there, you can save your findings into organized collections, add your notes, and even share the research with colleagues or collaborators.
Over time, Comet learns about your interests and provides personalized suggestions and updates. That means less time digging and more time understanding.
Who is it for?
Whether you’re a student doing academic research, a professional tracking market trends, or simply someone who’s curious and asks a lot of questions, Comet is built to support how you think.
It’s especially useful for those who value reliable sources, thoughtful summaries, and the ability to revisit or share what they’ve found.

Until next time.
