Perplexity AI Teases Comet Browser for 'Agentic Search'

The AI startup has launched a waitlist for its upcoming browser, which aims to integrate advanced AI capabilities but details remain scarce.

Perplexity AI announced plans for Comet, a Chromium-based web browser designed to support 'agentic search' capabilities.
Agentic search refers to AI tools that can perform complex tasks, such as making reservations or purchasing items, autonomously within the browser.
The company has opened a waitlist for Comet but has not disclosed a release date or specific feature details.
Perplexity's move into the browser market comes as it faces competition from established browsers like Chrome and AI-focused alternatives like Dia.
The announcement follows Perplexity's recent launches, including a deep research tool and an AI-powered assistant for Android.
