Android users could soon welcome yet another browser to challenge Chrome's hegemony.
- Perplexity’s AI-driven web browser has received a soft launch date, thanks to a recent AMA with the company’s CEO.
- The company is targeting an announcement of some type this Fall.
- The browser should also arrive on desktop platforms, including Windows and macOS.
In February, Perplexity announced plans for an AI-powered web browser called Comet. This “browser for agentic search” aims to establish the company as a gateway to the web for curious users. Although the announcement did not include a launch date, CEO Aravind Srinivas has indicated that Android users might not have to wait long.
During a recent AMA on Reddit, Srinivas mentioned that Comet for Android is “progressing quite well and fast,” and users can “expect something in the Fall.” While still somewhat vague, it does mean that Android users could receive the new AI browser sooner rather than later.
