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.
One-click summaries of web pages, articles and social threads
Paste a page or thread and get a condensed summary of the key points without reading the full text first.
Ask follow-up questions about a summarised page and get answers grounded in that source instead of generic model knowledge.
The site highlights summarization for Reddit, LinkedIn and Twitter/X, making long discussion threads and posts quicker to scan.
A Free plan processes up to 50K words per month, enough to evaluate the workflow before paying for unlimited use.
