1Password, a leader in identity security and the pioneer of Extended Access Management (XAM), has officially partnered with Perplexity to introduce Comet, an AI-powered web browser. This collaboration brings credential management, secure autofill, and advanced access controls directly into the browsing experience, powered by 1Password. With this integration, users can seamlessly log in, autofill credentials, and securely access their accounts while navigating the AI-driven internet. The partnership further reinforces 1Password’s vision of making AI adoption secure by default, ensuring productivity and protection go hand in hand.

“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.”

Elevating AI Browsing with Built-In Security

As AI-native browsers like Comet emerge, they address needs that traditional browsers were never built to solve. However, these advancements demand stronger, integrated security. Serving as Perplexity’s first security launch partner, 1Password has rolled out a free, Comet-compatible browser extension for its customers. This extension empowers users with:

  • Privacy-first browsing: credentials remain private, even when using AI features.
  • Seamless autofill: instant sign-in with usernames, passwords, and 2FA codes.
  • Stronger access protection: end-to-end encryption shields sensitive accounts.
  • Password generation: creation and storage of strong, unique passwords and passkeys.
  • Cross-device sync: credentials accessible across devices, systems, and browsers.

Highlighting the importance of security-first AI browsing, Dmitry Shevelenko, Chief Business Officer at Perplexity, said, “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. 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.”

Driving Secure AI Adoption

At its core, 1Password’s approach to AI security prioritizes privacy, transparency, and trust. Its zero-knowledge architecture and end-to-end encryption guarantee that secrets remain protected, while users maintain full control over what data AI can access, when, and why. This partnership with Perplexity illustrates 1Password’s secure-by-default philosophy showing how trusted security and AI-driven productivity can advance together. Ultimately, the launch of Comet demonstrates how businesses and individuals can embrace the AI era without compromising safety or usability.
