Perplexity launches Comet, an AI-native browser built around an agent

Perplexity’s Comet browser is finally out of private beta. The pitch: an AI-native Chromium fork that treats every tab as a task and gives an agent the keys to your session.

What we liked

  • Tab groups auto-organize by intent (research, shopping, work)
  • The address bar is a chat box first, URL bar second
  • Agent mode shipped working in 70% of our 40 test scenarios
⚠️ Warning: Agent mode is impressive but not infallible. Always supervise transactions over $50.
