Perplexity seemingly introduced a paywall for its Browser Control function, now under Perplexity Computer, necessitating additional credits. This alteration impacts Perplexity Pro subscribers, who continue paying $20 monthly for access to the feature. The modification went unnoticed, only surfacing on Reddit when users encountered issues with Browser Control.
The feature, designed for AI interaction with browsers, enables tasks like navigating websites, clicking buttons, and filling out forms, making it a key reason for using Perplexity’s Comet browser. However, the standalone Browser Control option vanished, and its functionality shifted to Perplexity Computer, requiring credit purchases.
Perplexity’s Pro subscription, previously covering Computer, now demands additional credits post promotional credits. This shift is particularly upsetting for Pro subscribers who relied on Browser Control as a primary reason for subscribing to Perplexity.
