Perplexity introduced Comet Plus, a subscription designed to bring quality journalism directly into AI assistants and the Comet browser. What does this change for you as a reader, creator, or AI entrepreneur? Here I explain it clearly and practically. (perplexity.ai)

What is Comet Plus

Comet Plus is a standalone $5 subscription that gives direct access to premium journalistic content inside Perplexity's browsing experience and AI assistants. It's also included at no extra cost for people who already pay for Perplexity Pro or Max. (perplexity.ai)

The central idea is simple: assistant answers shouldn't be limited to low-quality free snippets. Instead, when appropriate, they can rely on verified reporting and deep analysis.

Perplexity says participating publishers will be compensated for the ways their content adds value in the AI era. ()
