About Perplexity Computer

What the tool does and who it's for

Perplexity Computer is a cloud-based agentic system designed to handle complex, multi-step workflows autonomously. It functions as a persistent digital worker, coordinating up to 19 different AI models—including GPT-5.2, Claude 4.6, and Gemini 3.1 Pro—to execute tasks like web research, app development, and document generation. Unlike standard chatbots, it operates in a managed cloud sandbox with access to a real filesystem and browser, allowing it to perform background tasks for hours or days. It leverages a credit-based system (10,000 monthly credits) to manage model orchestration and tool use, ensuring high-quality, grounded outputs with real-time web access.
