20 Powerful AI Sidebar Prompts With Enahnaced versions for Comet Browser: Real Workflows That Save Hours (2025)
If you’re using Perplexity’s Comet Browser, the real magic isn’t in basic settings—it’s in the AI sidebar (Assistant). This built-in agent can read your open tabs, summarize content, compare options, draft emails, extract data, and even automate multi-step tasks across sites.
Most beginners stick to simple questions. Power users turn repetitive workflows into one-line prompts (or custom shortcuts). Here are 20 battle-tested prompts for Comer browser with enhanced versions. I am developer, and I have compiled and tested these prompts . I am sure these Comet browser prompts deliver tangible time savings for research, shopping, productivity, and more.
Copy-paste them directly into the sidebar (open with the sparkle icon or shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + A). For even faster access, save them as shortcuts (type / in the sidebar → create new).
