Perplexity's Comet AI browser is now free for everyone worldwide. The browser had previously only been available to Perplexity Max users at a cost of $200 per month.The company says that it has "become the most sought-after browser on the internet with millions signed up to the waitlist." Now that waitlist is gone and everyone can get to downloading. Perplexity went on to note that this isn't a limited-time promotion as Comet "will always be free."Comet is here.A web browser built for today’s internet.pic.twitter.com/cFPeghl2YM— Perplexity (@perplexity_ai) July 9, 2025 For the uninitiated, Comet is a browser that uses Perplexity AI as the default search engine. A chatbot accompanies each search in the sidebar and users can ask it to answer questions, summarize text and, in some cases, take actions like sending emails or looking up directions. Comet pulls information from the web and correlates that data into AI-generated responses, so make sure to double-check the important stuff.This is just the latest step for the company. Perplexity is currently working on a mobile version of the browser and an integrative AI assistant. It's also far from the only company stuffing AI into a web browser. Comet joins Google Chrome and The Browser Company's Dia in this effort.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/perplexitys-comet-ai-browser-is-now-free-for-everyone-170017509.html?src=rss
