Could you build this?

No Comet is a full-featured agentic iOS web browser built by Perplexity that requires complex mobile browser engine integration, native WebKit customization, real-time autonomous browsing agents, and low-latency voice infrastructure.

What it would actually take: Building a mobile agentic browser requires a native iOS (Swift/SwiftUI) architecture wrapping WKWebView with custom JavaScript bridge injection to intercept DOM trees, track tab state, and automate web actions. The hard components include real-time multi-tab state synthesis, an autonomous browser-use agent capable of executing complex web interactions (logins, navigation, forms) reliably on mobile DOMs, and an ultra-low-latency voice pipeline backed by large-scale search index infrastructure.
