Perplexity has made its AI-based Comet Browser completely free. Previously, it was only available to paid subscribers (Pro and Max), but now everyone can use it. Perplexity CEO Arvind Srinivas announced the news on the social media platform X, writing, "Comet is now available for download for everyone." Challenging major browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, Comet goes beyond simply displaying websites; it also helps summarize content, automate tasks, and simplify research.
What Features Will You Get?
Comet Browser offers users several advanced tools. It includes an AI-sidebar assistant that can summarize articles, draft emails, and complete multi-step tasks. The browser is Chromium-based, meaning Chrome extensions and bookmarks are also easily available. Comet's Workspace feature helps organize tabs and projects, making multitasking easier. It also provides personalized recommendations based on users' browsing habits. Furthermore, through task automation, it can automatically handle tasks ranging from booking meetings to comparing prices.
Premium Users Will Get a Special Tool
Although Comet is now free for everyone, Premium Max users will receive a unique feature: Background Assistant. This tool works silently in the background and automatically provides relevant information, summaries, and suggestions based on browsing patterns, ensuring workflow is seamless. Comet is also extremely useful for research and content creation, as it includes features like fact-checking, multimedia support, and content generation.
How to Use
Comet Browser is easy to use. Users must first create a Perplexity account and then download Comet from the official website. Then, by activating the AI sidebar assistant, you can take advantage of features like article summarization, email drafting, and task automation. Multitasking can be further improved by organizing tabs and projects in the workspace. Perplexity's move not only brings AI tools to the masses but also offers a strong challenge to giants like Google Chrome.
