Comet
visit →Automates browsing tasks while remembering context across tabs.
Comet is Perplexity's Chromium-based browser with an embedded agent that executes multi-step tasks across tabs, including competitive research, procurement workflows, calendar coordination, and inbox triage. For ecommerce operators, it replaces manual tab-juggling during supplier vetting, pricing research, or campaign planning by retaining session context and acting inside Gmail, Calendar, and Drive. Aimed at founders and commerce leaders who want an agentic layer over existing Chrome workflows without swapping stacks.
> pick this if
Pick this if you're a founder or commerce lead who lives in Chrome tabs and Google Workspace and wants an agent that acts inside that environment rather than a separate SaaS console.
> look elsewhere if
Look elsewhere if you need deep native integrations with Shopify, Amazon Seller Central, or ad platforms via API — Comet automates the browser surface, not backend commerce systems, and ships no MCP or documented integration catalog.
