CometBird: The Legacy of a Lightweight Powerhouse CometBird is an alternative, open-source web browser originally built upon the Mozilla Firefox source code and its Gecko engine. Developed by Comet Network Technology, it was designed as a lightweight, high-performance alternative to mainstream browsers, specifically optimized for systems with limited memory and disk space.
While it rose to popularity in the early 2010s for its unique built-in tools, it has since been largely superseded by modern browsers, including a newer, unrelated AI-powered browser also named “Comet” released by Perplexity AI in late 2025.
