I built an open source alternative to Perplexity Comet

It feels like every week there's a new AI-powered browser launching, promising to revolutionize how we browse the web. But honestly, Chrome is already perfect for many of us. Instead of switching to a new browser, I wanted to enhance my existing experience with AI features. That's why I built my own open-source, local alternative to tools like Perplexity Comet.

Chrome is already perfect

Chrome offers a great user experience, and I didn't want to switch browsers just for a few AI features. That's why I created a Chrome extension that adds the functionality I was looking for directly into my existing browser.

Just usesuperpowers.app - a Chrome extension which adds AI Browsing features similar to Dia and Comet in Chrome itself.

My solution is Superpowers AI, a Chrome extension that seamlessly integrates AI browsing features. It brings the power of tools like Perplexity Comet and others directly into Chrome.

Completely open-source and local

One of the most important aspects of this project is that it's completely open-source. You can view the code, contribute to its development, and customize it to your specific needs.

Furthermore, it runs locally, meaning your data stays on your machine.

Open to contributions

I'm excited to share this project with the community and welcome any contributions. Whether you're a developer, designer, or simply an AI enthusiast, your help is greatly appreciated!
