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.
Write research, beautifully — a live LaTeX editor with AI assistance
A Monaco-based editor with a custom LaTeX grammar, semantic token highlighting, 300+ snippet completions, bracket and environment auto-closing, and inline error markers pulled straight from compilation output.
Describe the maths, table, or figure you need in plain English and the assistant reads your whole document context to return syntactically correct LaTeX you can drop straight into the source.
Yjs CRDT synchronisation lets several people edit the same paragraph simultaneously with zero conflicts, supported by live presence cursors in author colours.
Watch equations, TikZ diagrams, figures, tables, and layout changes render as you type, so you always know how the compiled output looks.
Offers deeper conversational reasoning and coding agents, but lacks Perplexity's dedicated inline citation-first search layout.
