Summary

Perplexity has released its Comet AI browser for free worldwide after a limited launch on July 9 that drew millions to its waitlist, reporting that early users asked 6 to 18 times more questions on their first day of use. The company positions Comet as an alternative to a web shaped by advertising, commerce, and distraction, combining browsing with an in-tab AI assistant that can support research, meetings, coding, shopping, and other tasks. Perplexity is also expanding the assistant beyond conventional chat interfaces through Email Assistant, available to Max subscribers for inbox tasks such as scheduling and drafting replies, and newly announced Background Assistants that handle multiple tasks asynchronously. Planned mobile versions aim to bring Comet’s AI capabilities, voice interaction, and reduced advertising clutter to phones, while Comet Plus will partner with selected publishers to support journalism and provide access to reputable content.
