Agent Sightings Real agent use cases

Run grocery, email and photo tasks through Comet browser

Case study takeaway: julien Rio paid $20 a month for Comet Pro and gave its assistant logged-in access to Intermarché, his 15-year-old inbox, YouTube Studio, Dropbox and Google Calendar. He asked it to analyse purchases, clean email, sort 8,000 photos into daily folders, and turn a vacation spreadsheet into events. It couldn't read Intermarché's PDF receipts and located only a handful of emails.

Why it matters

Email is where a lot of admin quietly piles up. An agent that can read, sort, draft and follow up turns an inbox from a to-do list into something closer to a summary. It is one of 106 sightings filed under Email & Inbox on Agent Sightings (number 3 by interest), and one of 10 involving Perplexity Comet.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Perplexity Comet or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Go through my mail for this goal: run grocery, email and photo tasks through Comet browser. Propose labels, drafts, and unsubscribes as a checklist; change nothing until I approve.

Tip: Start with read-only access or 'draft, don't send', and check a few drafts before trusting it to send anything.
