It has recently been expanding its offerings—for example, it launched a deep research tool competing with similar ones provided by OpenAI and Google, as well as Sonar, an API for generative AI-powered search.

Search, AI, browsers: all three technologies naturally mix together. So it should be no surprise that AI-powered search engine, Perplexity AI, is teasing its entry into the browser market with “Comet.

Perplexity, founded in 2022, is the creator of an AI-powered search application that’s focused on providing real-time information. When prompted, it searches the web for the most up-to-date information, but instead of producing a series of links, it responds to users in a way that’s more like ChatGPT.

Another new Web browser is about to be released. Since it is Perplexity.ai behind it, the market can expect something different than usual this time. One novelty in the new browser, called Comet, is that Perplexity is incorporating agentic search.

The company is offering scant details about this browser called Comet, so I asked Perplexity AI for more information.

Perplexity AI, led by Aravind Srinivas, is set to launch a new browser named Comet, aimed at providing an agentic search experience. While a teaser has been released, details about its features and release date remain unclear amid Google's market dominance.
