The integration of artificial intelligence into everyday internet experiences is reshaping how people browse, work, and interact online. Recognizing that trust and security must evolve alongside these innovations, 1Password has partnered with Perplexity to bring enhanced security to Comet, the company’s AI-powered web browser.
“The internet is entering a new chapter, one where AI is woven into everything we do,” said Anand Srinivas, VP of Product and AI at 1Password. “No matter how intelligent our tools become, they only succeed if people can trust them. At 1Password, we believe security must be part of the foundation when building AI products, not an afterthought. Partnering with Perplexity on Comet shows what’s possible when AI and security are designed to work together from the start: an online experience that’s powerful, seamless, and safer for everyone.”
Security Built for AI Browsing
AI-native browsers such as Comet are addressing needs that traditional browsers were never designed to meet. With this shift, security must evolve in tandem. As Perplexity’s first security launch partner, 1Password has rolled out a dedicated Comet-compatible browser extension. Available at no cost to all 1Password customers, the extension makes credential management and secure sign-ins effortless for Comet users.
Key features include:
-
Privacy-first browsing: credentials remain private, even when interacting with AI features.
-
Seamless autofill: instant sign-in with usernames, passwords, and 2FA codes.
-
End-to-end encryption: protects sensitive accounts from unauthorized access.
-
Password and passkey management: generate, store, and use strong, unique credentials.
-
Cross-platform sync: access saved credentials across devices, operating systems, and browsers.
“Comet is designed to make AI-powered browsing effortless and productive, but that experience only works if security is also built in from the start,” said Dmitry Shevelenko, Chief Business Officer at Perplexity. “1Password stands apart in making security simple, combining privacy, transparency, and usability in a way that delivers both trust and a seamless user experience. Together, we’re bringing an internet experience that is effortless, productive, and secure by default.”
