Perplexity Overview

What is Perplexity?

Perplexity is the fastest way to get information. It's a tool that empowers everyone in the world to learn anything in their own way, using their own language or at their own level. When you ask a question, we take all the information available, compress it, and build a bridge between you and the information. If you want to learn about nuclear fission and you have a PhD in math, it can be explained. If you want to learn about nuclear fission and you are in middle school, it can be explained. Perplexity is a tool that you use, not an AI you talk to. We don't anthropomorphize the technology but instead give it to you to wield. Imagine having instant access to the world's knowledge in your pocket. Something that everyone should be able to use and the discerning should appreciate.

What do you like best about Perplexity?

Perplexity has become an indispensable tool in my daily workflow. It saves me countless hours each week.

Better than paying for just ChatGPT, which comes with this subscription, and more thorough than Gemini.

Using it for research is fast and accurate information, especially for things like drafting emails and researching for presentations.

Its versatility across tasks and commitment to security and privacy make it a powerful ally, allowing me to focus on strategic, value-adding activities.

It's awesome to choose my LLM model so I can switch for the best fit (like OpenAI vs Anthropic) without changing tools or workflows, so I always get the best results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perplexity?

It's fantastic for finding the information and validating. At times I wish I could make a Thread more collaborative with Notes or Comments that a teammate can chime in on, or see.

I'd love the ability to also switch LLM per thread Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Perplexity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reasearch and idea generation are the two main problems Perplexity solves for me today. The ability to quickly understand a topic with cited sources, and to help me generate new content or ideas has been a game changer.

I can't stress enough how helpful the ability to change between LLM models has been, so I get the flexibility to use the best tools for the job, without switching between services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
