Samsung Launches Windows Browser with Built-in AI Agent Powered by Perplexity
Samsung has released its proprietary browser for Windows featuring agentic AI capabilities built on Perplexity technology. The browser understands natural language, analyzes page context, and manages tabs autonomously.
Samsung Browser arrives on desktop with an intelligent assistant
Samsung has officially released its proprietary web browser for Windows, featuring an embedded AI agent built on Perplexity technology as its flagship capability. The application provides seamless connectivity between mobile devices and PCs while offering a suite of intelligent features designed to simplify everyday web browsing.
Samsung Browser for Windows supports bookmark and browsing history synchronization, enabling users to continue their workflow when switching from a mobile device to a computer. Additionally, Samsung Pass integration ensures secure storage of personal credentials, automatic website login, and form autofill.
Why this matters
Samsung's entry into the desktop browser market with a full-fledged AI agent intensifies competition in a segment dominated by Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. The partnership with Perplexity — an AI-powered search engine — signals a broader industry trend toward deep integration of language models directly into web browsing tools. Major tech corporations are increasingly embedding agentic AI into their products, seeking to fundamentally reshape how users interact with web content.
Agentic features: from tab management to video analysis
The core innovation in Samsung Browser is its agentic AI functionality, developed in collaboration with Perplexity. The browser can process natural language, account for the context of open pages, and track user activity across tabs. According to the announcement, the browser's intelligence goes beyond answering questions — it enables tab management, history navigation, and sustained productivity without ever leaving the application.
One practical use case: when planning a trip, a user can ask the AI agent to create a four-day itinerary based on the content of an open tab. The browser will analyze the page information and generate a structured travel plan.
Additional capabilities include video content analysis. The AI agent can locate a specific moment in a video and start playback from that point. History search has also been reimagined: instead of entering keywords or specifying dates, users can simply describe what they are looking for in plain language. Furthermore, the browser can cross-reference and compare data from multiple open tabs simultaneously.
Availability and limitations
Samsung Browser is compatible with devices running Windows 11 and Windows 10 (version 1809 and above). Agentic features are currently available only in South Korea and the United States, though the company has announced plans to expand to additional regions.
Earlier in February, Samsung unveiled its S26 smartphone lineup, where artificial intelligence served as the central element. The launch of a desktop browser with an AI agent continues Samsung's strategy of embedding intelligent technologies across all product categories.
