Computer Updates

Inline editing for any Computer-generated asset: Draw a selection box over any part of a document, presentation, spreadsheet, web app, or PDF that Computer created, type a short instruction, and Computer edits just that region in place. No need to describe where the change should go — Computer sees exactly what you're pointing at.

Scheduled task management: A new homescreen view shows every scheduled task in one place. Each task can be paused or canceled on its own, even if it was created alongside others in the same thread.

Smarter long conversations: Computer detects when a conversation is getting long and now offers a choice — extend the full context for richer detail, or let Computer summarize and keep going at lower cost. The prompt appears inline without blocking the thread, and works on both web and mobile.

Live credit counter: A running credit total is now visible while Computer works, showing exactly how much a task has cost so far in real time.

Multi-select and bulk delete for tasks: Select multiple tasks from the task list and delete them in one action. Single-task deletion now shows a confirmation dialog before removing anything.

Markdown-first drafting with export on demand: Computer now drafts in lightweight Markdown by default instead of generating PDFs. Markdown outputs appear as clean reports in the thread, and can also be downloaded as PDF or DOCX at any time.

Computer Enterprise Updates

New Workflows

Computer workflows, currently available to Enterprise users, now include six workflows, with two new additions: website generation and website audit covering SEO/GEO, accessibility, brand positioning, and more. We are testing additional workflows and plan to make these available across Consumer accounts in the coming weeks. Access workflows from the task bar in Computer.

Computer Connector updates

Performance improvements to connectors for more performant connections between Computer and our subscribers’ application ecosystem. We've added a Vercel connector and an improved Box connector for reading and writing files in Box. Also, subscribers can now request attachments to be added to emails sent via Computer (e.g. reports generated can now be emailed by Computer).

Computer in Slack

Improvements to the Slack App to help new Perplexity subscribers in your Slack Workspace onboard and start using Computer in Slack. All new subscribers also receive extra promotional credits when using Computer in Slack. Add to your Slack workspace here.

Computer sandbox network security admin controls

New advanced security controls for enterprise administrators to configure internet access in Computer sandboxes. Access these settings in the Computer Configuration tab in Settings.

Multimodality & Asset Generation in Deep Research

Perplexity Deep Research and Pro Search now support creating presentations, spreadsheets, dashboards, websites, and other structured outputs directly within the product, bringing research and creation into a single workflow.

With multi-step reasoning across hundreds of sources, Perplexity already helps users synthesize complex topics in depth. Now, that same research can be turned into usable deliverables users can immediately put to work.

This is the next milestone for deep research agents: not just generating insight, but turning that insight into something tangible and actionable in the same flow.

In Pro Search or Deep Research mode, users can simply prompt, for example, “Create a presentation analyzing the AI agent market.” Rather than stitching together research, synthesis, formatting, and presentation across multiple tools, Perplexity brings the full workflow into one place.

Example Use Case: Create a presentation analyzing the AI agent market

Health Computer

Perplexity Health is now rolling out to Perplexity Pro and Max subscribers. You can securely connect all your health data sources in one place, including medical records from over 1M providers, as well as your favorite apps and devices like Fitbit, Google Fit, Cronometer, Clue, and more.

These connectors are deeply integrated into Perplexity Computer, so you can go beyond just viewing data. You can ask questions, uncover trends, and even take action by building agents that analyze your health data, generate personalized plans, and help you reach specific goals—whether that’s managing chronic conditions, improving sleep, or optimizing fitness.

Try asking Computer to:

• Summarize my health data over the past 3 months and highlight any trends I should pay attention to.
• Explain my latest blood panel and tell me what’s improving or getting worse over time.
• Build me a custom dashboard to track my marathon training and highlight areas of improvement.
• Track my glucose and activity trends and suggest ways to better manage type 2 diabetes.

Perplexity Finance Computer

Perplexity Finance added three new capabilities this week that are integrated into both Computer and search:

Users in the US and Canada can securely connect their brokerage accounts to Perplexity via Plaid. Once your accounts are connected, you can ask Computer to create a personal terminal on top of your portfolio data. Connect your accounts in Perplexity Finance to get started.

Finance answers in Computer and Deep Research all have a traceability layer, letting you audit information back to its original sources, whether disclosed or derived. Answers are powered by 40+ tools that pull from SEC filings, FactSet, S&P Global, Coinbase, CBOE, Nasdaq, NYSE, and other authoritative sources — no setup required. This traceability interface is live today in Deep Research, coming soon to Computer. Try a Deep Research query like:

Break down Amazon's gross-to-operating margin bridge over the last 8 quarters: show gross profit, R&D, SGA, and D&A as a percentage of revenue each quarter. Then show the working capital trend — accounts receivable, inventory, and accounts payable in absolute terms and as days outstanding. How has the cash conversion cycle changed?

Polymarket data is integrated throughout Perplexity: as a tool that Computer can call, as supplementary information in Perplexity Finance, and as a graph that can appear in relevant answers (e.g. “who will win the nba finals?”).

Premium Sources

You can now access premium data from CB Insights, PitchBook, and Statista directly from Perplexity Computer. Ask about market sizing, startup funding, industry benchmarks, or company data, and get answers grounded in sources that previously required expensive subscriptions and manual searching.

Try researching with premium sources:

Size a market opportunity: "What's the total addressable market for AI-powered customer service in North America, with growth projections through 2030?"

Dig into startup funding: "Show me all Series B+ rounds in the climate tech space from the past 12 months, sorted by valuation."

Benchmark against industry data: "How does the average SaaS company's net revenue retention compare across company sizes, and what's the 75th percentile?"

Learn more: Premium Sources announcement

Final Pass: Document Reviewer

Perplexity Computer can now review documents as an independent auditing pass — checking for logical consistency, structural integrity, and factual accuracy without rewriting from scratch. Upload a contract, financial report, or technical document, and Computer analyzes it against strict constraints: cross-referencing claims, flagging contradictions, verifying formatting, fact checking against public sources, and surfacing errors that manual review would miss. Available to all Enterprise subscribers.

Access Final Pass in Computer as a workflow and use it to review any document: audit a contract before signing, verify a pitch deck or memo before sending it to the team, or proofread a marketing brief.

Comet Desktop: Inline Assistant

Get AI help right where you're reading and writing. Select text on any webpage to fact-check, define, summarize, translate, or improve it — results appear in a floating panel right next to the selection. Click into an empty text field to draft a reply or generate text from scratch. Beyond one-click actions, there's always an open input to ask anything about the selected text or give a custom instruction. Read with more understanding, write with more confidence — without ever leaving the page.

Comet Desktop: Tab Group and Menu Redesign

Redesigned tab groups with new visuals, group badges, and a custom icon selector — so organizing dozens of tabs actually feels good. Pin your most-used groups to keep them always accessible, and watch agent activity come alive with new tab animations. The browser menu has been restructured with clearer entry points, making every tool and setting easier to find.

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."

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.

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
• The selected model named displayed in the input bar for visibility
• Deep research, Model council, Create files and apps (previously known as Labs), and Learn step by step, are now all accessible using the + menu.

Step by step learning

Learning mode is now available to everyone (not just students) via the “+” dropdown in Perplexity’s updated input bar on Web. When you select “Learn step by step”, answers provide an interactive education experience for any topic of interest, helping you:

• Understand topics step-by-step rather than get instant answers
• Understand and solve problems with guided questions and hints
• Get answers tailored to your level of knowledge

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.

Comet Browser Agent now uses Opus 4.6

Max subscribers can now choose the model powering their browser agent, including Opus 4.6 (now the default model) and Sonnet 4.5. Opus 4.6 significantly increases Comet's reasoning ability, making the Comet Browser Agent great for complex tasks such as:

• Analyzing complex data patterns on a web dashboard
• Investigating your GitHub commit history and evaluate patterns over time
• Walking through a competitor’s onboarding flow and assess key differentiators and friction points
