Perplexity AI, known as the 'AI search engine,' shows notable growth with 780 million queries last month and is preparing to launch the new Comet browser.
Perplexity AI Sees Explosive Growth
Perplexity AI showcases impressive performance metrics. CEO Aravind Srinivas shared at Bloomberg's Tech Summit that the platform handled 780 million queries in May. The company is experiencing over 20% month-over-month growth compared to just 3,000 queries on its first day in 2022.
The Role of Comet Browser
An essential part of Perplexity's strategy involves developing its own browser codenamed Comet. Srinivas believes this browser is crucial for sustaining the company’s current growth trajectory by integrating AI into the browsing experience.
Comet: More Than Just a Browser
Perplexity envisions Comet not merely as 'yet another browser,' but as a 'cognitive operating system.' This suggests a deeper integration of AI into users’ everyday tasks, providing proactive solutions for internet interactions.
The development of Comet underscores Perplexity AI's ambitions to extend beyond traditional search methods and deeply integrate artificial intelligence into users' online experiences.
