Perplexity

Perplexity, founded in 2022, builds an AI-powered answer engine combining real-time web search with multiple leading AI models, plus enterprise and paid consumer plans.

Perplexity builds an AI-powered answer engine designed to deliver fast, accurate answers backed by credible sources, positioning itself between traditional search engines and AI-driven chat interfaces. Founded in 2022, the company serves millions of users worldwide and reports answering more than 150 million questions a week. Its flagship product combines real-time web search with multiple leading large language models across web and mobile platforms.

The product line extends beyond consumer search. Perplexity Enterprise offers knowledge workers accurate AI with enterprise-grade security, while Perplexity Pro is a paid plan providing deeper research capabilities for individual users. The company's technical work spans information retrieval, question answering, real-time web search and the integration of large language models.

Perplexity operates globally and has formed partnerships across sectors, including Wikipedia in knowledge and reference and Latham & Watkins in legal services. The company describes its approach as mission-driven, placing users rather than advertisers at the centre of the experience, with an emphasis on sourcing and accuracy.
