Perplexity AI, backed by Nvidia, has launched Comet, a new web browser with AI-powered search capabilities, to compete with Google Chrome in the browser market.
Comet aims to revolutionize browsing by integrating an agentic AI assistant for tasks like product comparisons, content summarization, and scheduling meetings.
Accessible via the $200/month Perplexity Max subscription, Comet is gradually rolling out for wider access, challenging browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.
Perplexity has faced criticism for using content without consent but is mitigating this by launching a publisher partnership program to collaborate with news outlets.
