Perplexity unveils Custom Skills to automate repeating tasks, Model Council for parallel frontier models, Voice Mode, GPT-5.3-Codex subagent for coding, and GPT-5.4 Thinking with wider availability. The update promises automated workflows, faster reasoning, and live orchestration for Pro/Max users.
Custom Skills in Computer
Teach Perplexity Computer how to handle any task once, and it remembers forever. Skills are reusable capabilities — step-by-step instructions, preferred formats, specific workflows — that Computer applies automatically whenever they're relevant. Create a custom skill for any task performed repeatedly, and Computer will follow it every time without re-explaining.
Try creating skills to:
Standardize recurring reports:
"Create a skill that generates a weekly performance summary with KPIs in a table, key wins as bullet points, and a 3-sentence outlook — formatted for Slack."Enforce a personal writing style:
"Create a skill for drafting LinkedIn posts in my voice: concise, no jargon, always end with a question to drive engagement."Automate research workflows:
"Create a skill that takes a company name and produces a one-page competitive brief with funding history, product overview, and recent news."
Model Council in Computer
Run three frontier models at once and pick the best answer — now directly inside Computer. Model Council automatically runs GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.6, and Gemini 3.1 Pro in parallel, then synthesizes where they agree, disagree, and what each uniquely contributes. Choose your orchestrator model for full control over how results are combined. Available for Max subscribers.
Try using Model Council to:
Make high-stakes investment decisions:
"Use Model Council to analyze whether TSLA is overvalued at current levels — compare bull and bear cases with supporting data from the latest earnings."Stress-test a business plan:
"Here's my pitch deck for an AI startup. Use Model Council to identify the three weakest assumptions, and how each model would challenge them."Get a balanced perspective on complex topics:
"Use Model Council to assess arguments for and against universal basic income, grounded in recent economic research."
Voice Mode in Computer
Talk to Computer and get things done. Voice Mode brings natural conversation to Perplexity Computer — describe a project, give feedback mid-task, or redirect on the fly, all without typing. Powered by the same voice technology in Comet, now available directly inside Computer on web.
Try talking to Computer to:
Brainstorm and build simultaneously:
"Build me a landing page for a coffee subscription service — actually, make it minimalist with earth tones and add a pricing section."Run financial analysis hands-free:
"Pull NVDA's last four earnings transcripts and build me a chart comparing revenue growth quarter over quarter."Iterate on a project in real time:
"That looks good, but swap the bar chart for a line chart and add annotations for the earnings dates."
GPT-5.3-Codex Coding Subagent in Computer
Perplexity Computer now has access to GPT-5.3-Codex as a dedicated coding subagent, strengthening its ability to build, debug, and deploy software. When Computer encounters a complex coding task, it can automatically delegate to Codex — writing thousands of lines of production-quality code, fixing bugs using browser dev tools, and pushing directly to GitHub.
Try asking Computer to:
Build a full-stack app from scratch:
"Create a personal finance tracker with a React frontend, Python backend, and live stock data from Perplexity Finance."Automate a data pipeline:
"Build a script that pulls my Google Analytics data daily, compares week-over-week trends, and emails me a summary every Monday."Clone and improve an existing tool:
"Recreate the core functionality of Duolingo's lesson flow as a web app, but focused on learning Japanese kanji."
GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.4 Thinking
OpenAI's latest GPT-5.4 models are now available to all Pro and Max subscribers, delivering gains in reasoning, coding, and creative tasks. GPT-5.4 Thinking adds step-by-step reasoning for tackling more complex problems. Both models are available across Perplexity's web and mobile apps.

Claude Sonnet 4.6 and Gemini 3.1 Pro
Both models are available to all Perplexity Pro and Max subscribers after being launched by Anthropic and Google this past week.

Even if Memory is enabled at the organization level, individual users can still view, delete, or turn off their saved memories at any time. Memories and search history are automatically disabled in Incognito mode.

Upgraded Deep Research
We've upgraded Deep Research to achieve state-of-the-art performance on leading external benchmarks (such as Google DeepMind Deep Search QA and Scale AI Research Rubric), outperforming other deep research tools on accuracy and reliability. This upgrade pairs the best available models with Perplexity's proprietary search engine and sandbox infrastructure, with Deep Research now running on Opus 4.5 for Max and Pro users (and we'll upgrade to top reasoning models as they become available). Now for Max users, and rolling out to Pro in the coming days.
Read more about how we optimized Deep Research for real-world use, or try it for yourself by using Deep Research to conduct:
Academic research:
How did Japanese woodblock prints influence the compositional techniques and color palettes of French Impressionist painters (especially monet) between 1860-1890, and which specific artists showed the most direct stylistic borrowings?Tech deep dive:
What methodologies do leading AI evaluation benchmarks like HLE, Browsecomp, and SimpleQA use to assess LLM capabilities, and what are their key limitations in predicting real-world production performance?Legal research:
What are the legal requirements and procedural differences for obtaining a marriage license across Canadian provinces, and how do prenuptial agreement enforceability standards vary between Quebec's civil law system and common law jurisdictions?
See more use cases in this shared Space.Introducing Model Council
Model Council enables you to run three frontier models at once, compare outputs, and get a more accurate, higher‑confidence answer. It’s available now on web only for Perplexity Max subscribers, and you can read more about it in our blog post.
Model Council works by running your query through three selected AI models in parallel and comparing the responses. A separate model then reviews and synthesizes the results, highlighting where they agree, disagree, and what each one found. You can view results side by side, get clear insight into the evidence and disagreements, and see what each model uniquely contributes to the final answer. It’s great for strategic analysis, such as:
Investment research:
Get balanced views on stocks, markets, or financial decisions where model bias could be costly.Complex decisions:
Evaluate options for major purchases, career moves, or strategic choices with input from multiple reasoning approaches.Creative brainstorming:
Surface ideas for gifts, travel plans, or content by drawing on different models' strengths.Verification:
Cross-validate information when you need to be confident you're getting it right.
See more use cases in this shared Space.
Simplified input bar
Perplexity’s input bar has a new, streamlined look on web. In addition to a more focused experience for asking questions, the updated design provides:
- A “+” icon for easy access to uploading files, managing sources, and choosing modes
- An logo for each model to aid recognition

Improved memory engine
Perplexity now both creates richer memories and is more effective at recalling details from the past, now rolled out to Max and Pro users. Try it by asking for book recommendations or to recall details from a past conversation. Improvements include:
Memory quality over quantity:
Our tests found that the enhanced memory engine was able to recall important information in 95% of cases (up from 77% previously), while makes half as many memories. In other words, it is much more effective at remembering the right things.Higher quality answers:
As memory quality gets sharper, answer quality follows. We found the enhanced memory engine significantly improved dimensions such as understanding time and reasoning through approximations.
Heatmap on Perplexity Finance
The Perplexity Finance homepage now includes a heatmap view of price movement among top stocks. Hover your mouse over any company’s name to get a live-updating synthesis of why the price is up or down. Available on desktop, mobile apps, and mobile web.

Admins can restrict new sign-ups to verified domains. When this setting is enabled in the Identity tab, only users with email addresses from verified domains can join the organization.Organization usage guidelines:
Admins can share usage guidelines with all members, such as approved use cases and data input restrictions. These guidelines are set in the organizational profile and will appear on every member’s homepage.
