Introducing Comet Plus

Perplexity has announced Comet Plus, a $5 subscription service intended to give users access to premium content from participating publishers while creating a new compensation model for journalism in an AI-driven web. The company argues that traditional publisher revenue models based on clicks and pageviews do not account for AI-mediated uses of content, such as search citations and agent-driven tasks, and says Comet Plus will distribute subscription revenue to partners after deducting a small amount for compute costs. Subscribers will be able to access participating publishers’ sites and content, use AI assistants to perform tasks on those sites, and receive answers informed by premium sources, while Pro and Max members will receive the service as part of their existing plans. Perplexity plans to announce its initial publishing partners when the Comet browser becomes freely available and is inviting interested publishers to join the program.
