Use an AI browser to compare trips and deals
A writer used Comet to research restaurants, hotel openings, and a preorder price while they kept working.
- What they did
- While drafting an article, a writer handed Comet a few separate browsing jobs. It checked Michelin Guide spots for a Copenhagen trip based on their filters, looked for hotel openings in Japan for a honeymoon next year, and searched for the best price on a game preorder. They let it keep going in the background and returned to their writing.
- How it went
- The browser ran alongside their work, which helped them stay focused. The restaurant and hotel searches did not produce shared results, and some requests failed when the agent ran into problems. They also stopped it before any restaurant reservation could be made.
- Tips
- This kind of agent can save attention, but it may slow down at first and sometimes stop on tricky tasks. Keep it to research mode and ask for confirmation before any booking or purchase.
