If you’ve been watching the AI browser space, here’s some news worth bookmarking. Perplexity’s Comet AI browser is officially heading to iPhones on March 11, and the Apple App Store listing just made it official.

The listing is already live, showing a “Get” button and a set of preview images that give us our first real look at how Comet AI browser will feel on an iPhone. Spoiler: it looks a lot less like a traditional browser and a lot more like a conversation.

From page viewing to a dialogue-driven experience

That’s really the pitch here. The Comet AI browser isn’t trying to be Safari or Chrome. Instead, it pulls everything into a single interface designed to actually understand what you’re trying to accomplish — no more bouncing between a dozen tabs or flipping between apps to piece something together.

Think of it as a browser that can handle an entire session for you. Whether you’re comparing products, deep-diving into research, or working through something more complex, Comet is built to handle the heavy lifting. It also tackles something users have been begging for: cutting down on interruptions, including ads.

A side-panel assistant is one of the standout features here. It can summarise pages, answer follow-up questions, and even carry out actions — booking hotels, sending emails, completing purchases — right within the browser. There’s also a context-aware integrated assistant that responds based on whatever content is currently on your screen, making it feel genuinely reactive rather than bolted on.

So what exactly is “agentic search”?

Perplexity describes Comet as a “browser for agentic search” — and that framing matters. Agentic search refers to an AI-driven approach where the system doesn’t just fetch results; it interprets your intent, understands context, and independently executes multi-step tasks to get you where you need to go. It’s less “here are ten blue links” and more “I understood what you meant, and here’s what I did about it.”

The Comet AI browser is built around Perplexity’s own search engine, which compiles AI-generated answers sourced from across the web.

Where is Comet available right now?

Currently, the Comet AI browser is available on Mac, Windows, and Android. It made its Android debut back in November last year, and now iPhone users are finally getting their turn. The March 11 launch date comes straight from the official Apple App Store listing, making this as confirmed as it gets ahead of the release.

If you’re an iPhone user who’s been waiting to see where AI browsers go next, you won’t have to wait much longer.
