Perplexity AI has launched its new AI-powered browser, Comet, initially available via waitlist for Perplexity Max subscribers. Built on the Chromium framework, Comet integrates Perplexity's conversational AI to function as an interactive research assistant, enabling tasks like page summarization and natural language navigation.
Further enhancing its capabilities, Comet features a strategic partnership with Coinbase, providing seamless access to real-time cryptocurrency market data. This integration aims to offer users a consolidated platform for financial information and market analysis.
Comet is slated for public release on October 2, 2025, with mobile versions planned for later in the year and early 2026. Despite facing competition and legal challenges, Perplexity aims to establish Comet as a significant player in the browser market.
