Perplexity Comet
New — not yet scoredby Perplexity · founded 2025 · updated Jul 2026
Comet is Perplexity's AI-native browser: an agent that reads pages, runs multi-step research and takes actions on your behalf rather than just returning links. It's new and rolling out in stages, so we're tracking it here but holding off on a TIP Score until pricing, availability and real-world reliability settle.
Not yet scored
Perplexity Cometis new to the catalog. We only publish a TIP Score once there's enough verifiable evidence to stand behind every pillar — so rather than guess, we're tracking it here until it earns one. Agentic browsing — too new to score with conviction yet.
