Comet for Mac

Comet is an AI-native web browser developed by Perplexity AI. Launched in mid-2025, it is designed to shift the internet experience from manual navigation to "agentic browsing," where an AI assistant actively handles tasks, research, and workflows directly within the browser interface.

Product Overview

Comet is not just a place to view websites; it is a Chromium-based browser built around an integrated AI agent. While traditional browsers act as passive windows to the web, Comet serves as an active collaborator that can read, understand, and act on the content of your tabs.

Key Features

• Comet Assistant: A persistent sidebar AI that stays with you across all websites. It can summarize long articles, explain complex concepts, and answer questions based specifically on the page you are currently viewing.
• Agentic Browsing (Actions): Comet can perform actions on your behalf, such as buying a specific product, booking a meeting, or drafting emails via integrated tools like Gmail and Outlook.
• Smart Tab Management: Use natural language to organize your workspace. You can tell Comet to "group all my research tabs about AI" or "close everything I haven't touched in three days."
• Contextual Intelligence: By using the @tab command, you can direct the AI to focus its answers on specific open pages, ensuring high relevance and reducing hallucinations.
• Voice Integration: Includes a built-in voice mode, allowing for hands-free browsing and command execution.
