Comet stands out by combining AI-driven browsing with robust credential management. Users benefit from features like:
- Secure autofill
- Two-factor authentication code handling
- Strong password generation
- End-to-end encrypted storage of credentials
Comet’s privacy-first approach ensures that user data remains confidential even while leveraging AI capabilities.
