Reviewers largely see Perplexity as a fast, clean research tool that often replaces traditional search for everyday questions, current information, and deeper topic exploration. The most repeated praise is clear: sourced answers, quick summaries, strong mobile and voice use, and a simple interface that makes digging deeper easy. Several users say it fits well alongside ChatGPT or Claude for fact-finding and planning. The main caveat is reliability: reviewers still report hallucinations, missing or shaky citations, weaker performance in long threads, ads, and some features that feel unfinished.
Thrilled to hunt Comet for iOS... the first agentic AI browser built for mobile!

The people have spoken! Comet tops the charts! #1 iOS browser today.
Comet’s AI browser could totally transform the way content creators research and storyboard ideas. I’d love to explore how short, AI-powered videos could showcase these workflows in action.
@onitedesigns Do you use Comet mostly for content research?
@rohanrecommends Yes! I use Comet primarily for content research and ideation. Being able to summarize multiple tabs, pull insights instantly, and have the AI take actions across my workspace saves a huge amount of time. It’s like having a research assistant in my pocket, especially when I’m juggling articles, references, and notes for videos or projects. This product has a very clear need, and creating a promotional video is a perfect way to communicate its value. I will like to draft out one for it.

finally. excited to use!
@shubham_kukreti The experience and design are absolutely stellar. I'm probably deleting Safari.
It's ABSURD that this isn't in first place on PH for the day, lol. Comet is one of those "how did I live without this?" tools, in so many ways, especially now that Perplexity Computer is off the ground. The fact the team has been able to refactor the Comet experience to a mobile format is nothing short of amazing.
Great work, team! I've spent so much time training up my Perplexity agent with personality paramaters, skills, a portable identity manifest, deep connections to all of my tools and messaging, and so much more. I don't know what I'd do without her, honestly!
