In a digital world where we read, research, buy, decide, and ask questions constantly, the way we interact with the internet hasn’t kept up. Traditional browsing is still largely built around tabs, search bars, and jumping from site to site breaking the natural rhythm of how we explore ideas.

That’s why Perplexity has launched Comet, a new kind of browser designed to support users not just in navigating the web, but in thinking with it.

Built for Today’s Digital Workflow

The internet has become an essential layer of our daily lives used for learning, working, planning, and problem-solving. But most browsers haven’t evolved beyond managing windows and bookmarks. Comet aims to close that gap by integrating an intelligent assistant that helps streamline everyday online tasks.

With Comet, users can:

1. Ask questions directly while browsing
2. Compare content across pages
3. Highlight a concept to get a clear explanation
4. Request help drafting an email, summarizing an article, or making a decision

Comet isn’t replacing how we browse, it’s enhancing it with built-in context awareness and guided interactions that reduce mental clutter.

From Tabs to Thoughtful Threads

One of Comet’s core features is its ability to manage browsing as an ongoing conversation. Rather than juggling dozens of open tabs and notes, users can ask Comet follow-up questions, request comparisons, or explore related topics without losing their place.

Need to know which vendor ships faster? Curious how today’s article compares to something you saw last week? Comet helps you stay focused by handling the busywork in the background.

Trustworthy Information at the Core

Comet is backed by Perplexity’s reputation for prioritizing accuracy and transparency. Every response from Comet is grounded in verifiable sources, ensuring users get clear and trustworthy answers when making decisions whether they’re evaluating insurance plans or researching a new technology.

In an era where AI tools are increasingly involved in our choices, Perplexity positions Comet to be a reliable assistant, not a black box of guesses.

Curiosity Without the Chaos

Instead of overwhelming you with options or forcing you into rigid workflows, Comet is built around personal curiosity. Highlight a phrase, explore a side topic, or dig deeper into a concept, all while keeping your original context intact.

This flexible design lets you follow your train of thought without starting over every time your questions evolve.

Now Available With Early Access Rolling Out

Starting today, Comet is available to Perplexity Max subscribers, with a gradual, invite-based rollout continuing throughout the summer. Each new user will be given limited invites to share.

If you’re not a Max subscriber, you can join the waitlist and be notified when your access is ready.

Perplexity has also confirmed that Comet will continue evolving, with future updates focused on user feedback, enhanced task support, and improved assistant capabilities all built on a commitment to accuracy and user trust.

Why It Matters

As our digital environments grow more complex, tools like Comet hint at a future where online tasks feel more like conversations than commands. Whether you’re learning something new, making a choice, or just trying to understand something better, Comet is designed to help you move from curiosity to clarity without the chaos.

After all, the internet isn’t just something we browse anymore. It’s where we think. And Comet wants to think with you.
