Key Features

🤖 Intelligent Task Automation Go beyond just asking questions. Comet Assistant can actively click, type, fill out forms, and navigate websites on your behalf. It handles complex, multi-step tasks, from comparing products and adding them to your cart to completing the checkout process, freeing you from manual, repetitive work.

🧠 Personal Search & Contextual Answers Comet searches more than just the web; it searches your world. Instantly find information across your open tabs, browsing history, documents, and even connected email accounts. Use the @tab feature to ask specific questions about a page you're viewing, ensuring the AI's answers are always relevant to your immediate context.

💬 Integrated Assistant Sidecar Access AI assistance without ever leaving your current page or breaking your concentration. The Sidecar is a persistent panel that lets you summarize articles, translate text, or ask follow-up questions while your primary content remains in view. It’s true multitasking, designed to keep you in the flow.

⚡️ Customizable AI Shortcuts Automate your most common workflows with reusable prompts. By simply typing /, you can trigger a custom Shortcut to perform a specific action, like closing stale tabs, fact-checking an article, or generating a daily briefing from your calendar. It's a powerful way to make the AI work exactly how you do.

Use Cases

Comet transforms how you approach everyday online activities:

• Efficient Research and Analysis: Open a dozen research tabs for a project. Instead of manually sifting through them, ask Comet: "@tabs summarize the key findings from my research on Q3 market trends and list the top three action items." Comet will read across all relevant tabs and deliver a synthesized report directly in the Sidecar.

• Streamlined Shopping and Comparisons: You're looking for a new camera. Open tabs for three different models. Ask Comet: "@tabs compare the price, sensor size, and user reviews for these cameras and present the results in a table." Comet will extract the key data and can even proceed to add your choice to the cart.

• Automated Daily Briefings: Start your day with complete clarity. With your Gmail and Calendar connected, you can ask: "Who am I meeting with today and what are the key discussion points from our recent emails?" Comet will scan your schedule and inbox to give you a concise, actionable briefing.

Why Choose Comet?

Comet is built on the familiar and reliable Chromium engine, ensuring full compatibility with your favorite websites and extensions. However, its AI capabilities offer a fundamentally different browsing experience.

• Beyond a Search Bar: While other browsers integrate AI as a search function, Comet's Assistant actively performs tasks for you. It doesn't just find information; it clicks buttons, completes forms, and executes multi-step workflows, acting as a true digital agent.

• Unified Personal Context: Unlike browsers with siloed history and search functions, Comet unifies your digital activity into a searchable personal database. You can ask a single question that draws context from your open tabs, past browsing, and even your emails to deliver a uniquely relevant answer.

• Native, Workflow-Integrated AI: Instead of relying on third-party extensions that feel bolted on, Comet builds AI directly into the browser's core. Features like the Sidecar and Shortcuts are native, context-aware elements designed for a seamless and powerful user experience, not an afterthought.

Conclusion

Comet Browser redefines what a browser can be. It's not just a window to the web; it's an intelligent tool designed to understand your intent, manage your information, and execute your tasks. By eliminating digital friction and automating routine work, Comet empowers you to stay focused, curious, and remarkably productive.
