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.
Automate data entry across websites, apps and PDFs from your browser
Select a formatted table on a website, web app or local PDF and copy it to the clipboard with its rows and columns preserved, ready to paste into a spreadsheet.
Import a spreadsheet, map its headers to a form's input fields and fill text boxes, radio buttons and checkboxes from the matching row in a few clicks.
Smart Paste identifies familiar fields like name or occupation so you can pull just those values out of a page instead of copying everything.
Every extraction and paste happens on your own computer, so the data you work with is never uploaded to a third-party server.
