Comet is a browser with Perplexity's assistant built in. Besides answering questions about what you're reading, it can act for you: draft emails, build a page, make a study plan or shop.

It's available for Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android. Homebrew's cask lists macOS 12 or later; the iPhone and iPad app needs iOS 18.0.

Comet is free to download; the iPhone app has in-app purchases. The assistant runs on Perplexity's servers.
