Overview
- Comet is now on iOS and iPadOS via the App Store with hybrid search, a voice mode for questions about open tabs, assistant-style actions, and sync with macOS and Windows.
- The new Comet Enterprise adds granular admin controls, telemetry, and audit logs and can be rolled out to thousands of devices through existing MDM tools.
- Perplexity says Comet Enterprise integrates with CrowdStrike Falcon for blocking suspicious files or links, and early customers include Fortune, AWS, Alix Partners, Gunderson Dettmer, and Bessemer Venture Partners.
- On iOS, agentic tasks use a cloud-hosted virtual browser that sends cookies to Perplexity’s cloud, according to MacStories as cited by heise, whereas other platforms perform actions locally.
- Advanced features require a Perplexity subscription advertised at about €22 per month that unlocks current models from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic, with the broader Perplexity Computer and Comet ecosystem available across mobile and desktop.
