Comet
The Perplexity browser with an AI assistant built into the browser itself. It reads the open tab, summarises it and acts on the page, and does not just answer in a side panel.

A chat sidebar bolted onto a browser has to be told what the page says. Comet already has the current page as context, so you skip copying a URL or text into a chat window. Ask about the tab you are on and it knows.
That same access is why you should be deliberate. An assistant that can read and act on any open page reaches further than a chat window that sees only what you paste. Check what it can act on before you point it at anything sensitive on screen.
Notes from the author
Check the assistant page-access settings before you use it on an internal tool or admin panel. Reads the open tab means exactly what it says.
