We’re open sourcing a benchmark and full evaluation harness for deep and wide research. Wide research is a particularly valuable feature for researching hundreds to thousands of entities across the web (or internally), building spreadsheets, and more. Hope this helps others build similar search and research evals for their own organizations.

We’re open sourcing WANDR. WANDR is an internal benchmark we built and used for building deep and wide research capabilities inside Perplexity Computer. research.perplexity.ai/articles/wandr…

Memory is now organized by Concept, Entity, and Workstream by Computer's Brain. Computer Brain is a workspace agent automatically organizes your knowledge into a wiki and graph. Try it at perplexity.ai/computer/memory

We've been working on a quality sprint at Perplexity, with a few nice quality of life improvements. Now available: account switching. Try it "Account > Add account" on either Mac or mobile. Web coming soon as well. Keep your work and personal environments separate but only a click away.
Computer@AskPerplexity

The Perplexity Mac app now has an account switcher. Switch between your saved accounts, add a new one, or manage them from the sidebar profile menu or the account settings menu. Live now in the Mac app for all Computer users.

More efficient, less expensive models. Which will in turn lead to less stressful daily work with agents and more trust that they will accelerate and empower us rather than add additional unnecessary overhead. The future is bright for human creativity. Less compute spent on slop and more time on curiosity.
Aravind Srinivas@AravSrinivas

Imagine a fable 5 quality model that’s 3-4x less expensive in less than 6 months. And an Opus 4.8 grade model that can run on a local device in less than 12 months. Greater than 50% chance that these events will happen. Worth keeping in mind when you make predictions about the future.

GLM 5.2 is an ideal model to use as an orchestrator. Computer is now cheaper and faster while maintaining capabilities on difficult tasks. Kudos to the open source community and our post training team.
Perplexity@perplexity_ai

We're releasing a research preview of a new orchestrator model in Perplexity Computer. The model is an adapted version of GLM 5.2, post-trained for the Computer harness. It delivers near-frontier performance at 0.344x of the cost of Opus.

Brain is a new take on memory that automatically creates a knowledge graph out of the context you work on every day in Computer. Less context switching and fewer turns are needed to search for the information you need. The right context should be automatically found for you no matter where you start your work. Available as research preview today.
Perplexity@perplexity_ai

Introducing Brain in Computer. Brain is a continuously learning memory system. Every task on Computer plugs into a context graph built by Brain. It makes Computer more stateful with every run. Available as a research preview for all Perplexity Max subscribers.

Search as Code means that search can be fully integrated end to end into any agent. Search with Perplexity is composable with any CLI or file format, meaning more efficient communication, fewer agent round trips, and improved latency/cost.
Perplexity@perplexity_ai

Introducing Search as Code, our new search architecture for AI agents. It writes Python that calls our search stack directly, instead of looping through function calls one at a time. Available in the Perplexity Agent API, and now default in Computer. research.perplexity.ai/articles/rethi…
