# Here's a screen recording of me using Comet agentic browser

Here's a screen recording of me using Comet agentic browser, by Perplexity, to search and compare broadband providers for my home address...

Skip to 4mins to see the final outcome.

My prompt:

"Take control of the browser and search for five broadband providers that cover KT1 3QP. Don't use a comparison site, go direct to their sites and tell me the packages available, over 500mbps. Summarise for me, along with average user scores for service."

Notes:

- I asked it to take control of the browser to create a more interesting video.  
- I forced it to go to supplier sites, rather than a comparison site to make it work a bit harder. On a previous run, it just used a comparison site.  
- This isn't actually my address - I used a random one for obvious reasons.

Takeouts:

I'm impressed by how it navigated and read information. It made decisions such as entering forms, to reveal packages, and then read on screen content effectively and collated it.

Sites by providers that it couldn't browse (i.e. weren't accessible), lost out.

It found relevant packages and provided an effective summary.

It fell short getting the user reviews.

Conclusion:

Impressive, and would definitely save me time on a task like this. However, it's not trustworthy enough to be completely effective yet.

Creating sites that allow assistive technology, such as agentic browsers, to  access read and interact with content and tools is going to be absolutely critical in the future.

I'll be running more tests and sharing them over the coming weeks.

Anything you're thinking of researching that I could run for you?
