Comet browser review

Here is a user who persevered with comet browser and the tight integration with perplexity is evident.

I tried it but went back to Safari due to the obvious connection comet shares with Chrome. But worth another shot based on this user.

Google search is not even in my lexicon and this is an obvious next step.

I wasn’t planning to switch browsers but after I got the invite I wanted to see what Comet could do, so I messed around with it on netflix, had it make a spotify playlist, made it play chess for me.etc
It was fun but I didn’t really get it

3 and a half weeks later chrome isn’t even in my taskbar on my pc!

I do a lot of research for work – comparing tools, reading technical docs, and writing things that have to make sense to people who aren’t technical.
I also get distracted way too easily when I have more than 3 tabs open.. I close tabs and used to never use tab groups because they felt cluttered in chrome

Comet didn’t magically make me more focused, but the way I can talk to it, have it control my tabs, and sort everything out just clicked for me! That alone has probably saved me hours of closing and reopening tabs I needed!!!

And then a couple days ago I had to compare pricing for subscriptions across a bunch of platforms. Normally I’d open all their docs in separate windows next to each other, skim, and start a messy gdocs page. This time, I tagged the tabs with Comet, asked it to group them, and then asked it to summarize

It gave me a breakdown with the info I wanted. I actually trusted it enough to paste straight into my notes (I did double check after lol, no hallucinating!), so I asked it to do that too and it was flawless

It’s not perfect, markdown fixes itself when I paste into gdocs, but tables sometimes break and sometimes I have to say “control this tab” for the agent to kick in – but those aren’t big issues. My day feels much smoother now!!

I’m wondering if anyone else has had that feeling of “I can’t go back”, did comet change things for you?
