About Perplexity
Perplexity takes a question, searches current sources and writes an answer with citations, so you can check where each claim comes from. You can ask follow-up questions, organize work in projects, choose a model and connect other services with connectors.
A newer feature called Computer takes on longer tasks and returns finished deliverables. It suits people who want a research-style alternative to a traditional search engine.
