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.
Free Chrome extension for AI email drafting, rewriting, and translation
Enter a few keywords or a rough outline and SimpleGPT generates a complete email draft, so you start from a finished structure instead of a blank page.
Feed it text you have already written and get a clearer, tighter version back — handy for polishing blog posts, assignments, or outreach messages.
Translate text into and out of dozens of languages directly from your browser, without opening a separate translation site.
Everything happens from the extension's toolbar button on the pages you already use, so there is no new app to learn or separate account to manage.
