Real-time AI answer engine and research workspace combining live web citations with frontier reasoning models.
Executes multi-step iterative web and document research across hundreds of sources, cross-checking facts and generating structured, citation-backed analytical reports that can be exported as PDFs or shared as interactive Perplexity Pages.
Lets Pro and Max subscribers switch dynamically between Perplexity's in-house Sonar models and top external models (including Claude 4, o3-pro, and Gemini) or compare multi-model reasoning outputs side by side.
Provides dedicated project workspaces where users upload local PDFs, spreadsheets, and text files, configure custom assistant instructions, and run queries that combine private document retrieval with live internet search.
Extends Perplexity from passive Q&A into agentic execution, turning high-level user requests into completed workflows, multi-tab browser actions, and automated data synthesis via the Comet ecosystem.
Build a support chatbot for your website — no code, with human backup when needed.
Build conversation flows in a visual editor with messages, questions, conditions and actions, without writing code.
Feed the bot your FAQs, documents and site content so it can answer customer questions accurately instead of guessing.
Publish a hosted chat widget on any website with a snippet, and let visitors start conversations instantly.
Escalate to a human agent when the bot cannot help, and collect emails and details to follow up.
