After signing to Virgin Records, the duo released their debut studio album Homework in January 1997. The album peaked at number three in France, earning a platinum certification from the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP). The success of Homework also brought worldwide attention to progressive house music, and it has since been viewed as a landmark album of the genre. The Homework single "Around the World" became a top five hit in several European countries and gave the duo their first entry on the US Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at number 61. The album also produced the singles "Burnin'" and "Revolution 909".

Discovery also performed well internationally, becoming a top ten chart hit in countries such as Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom. "One More Time", the album's first single, became a number-one hit in France and on the Billboard dance chart. The single also reached the top ten on the charts of Australia, Germany and the United Kingdom. An additional six singles were released from Discovery: "Aerodynamic", "Digital Love", "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger", "Face to Face" and "Something About Us".

Human After All, the duo's third studio album, was released in March 2005 to mixed reviews. Nonetheless, the album topped the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart and peaked at number three in France. Human After All featured the singles "Robot Rock", "Technologic", "Human After All" and "The Prime Time of Your Life".
Following their Alive 2006/2007 tour, Daft Punk composed the score for the 2010 film Tron: Legacy and released an accompanying soundtrack album. The album produced the single "Derezzed" and became the duo's first top five album on the Billboard 200. It also received a platinum and gold certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and SNEP, respectively. Random Access Memories, Daft Punk's first studio album in eight years, was released in May 2013 and topped several charts worldwide. In France, the album was Daft Punk's first release to debut at number one, a position it retained for three consecutive weeks after its release. "Get Lucky", the first single from Random Access Memories, also experienced chart success in several countries. In 2016, Daft Punk was featured on two singles from Canadian R&B singer The Weeknd entitled "Starboy" and "I Feel It Coming". The former topped charts in several countries and received a platinum certification from the RIAA, while the latter peaked at number one in France and earned a diamond certification from the SNEP. The duo officially broke up in February 2021; however, during December of the same year, the Tron: Legacy soundtrack reentered and topped the Dance/Electronic Albums chart after a vinyl edition of the album was released in Target stores. Exactly a year after their split and to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Homework'''s release, the duo released a special edition of the album containing various remixes which were also released as a standalone album, Homework (Remixes), later in the year. A 10th anniversary edition of Random Access Memories'' was released in May 2023.
