    Powerful Research and Writing Assistant, with Search Workflows to Improve

    Reviewed on Nov 03, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I use Perplexity to write blogs, emails, leave applications, paragraphs, and assignment essays, and to solve math equations and answer general knowledge questions. I like its Deep Research Mode, Focus Modes, and Multi-Model Access (Pro). Focus Modes let me search specific domains, including academic papers, YouTube transcripts, and Reddit discussions. With Pro mode, I can switch between or orchestrate models like GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini from one dashboard. Getting started was simple—not very complex; I just logged in and got started.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I think Perplexity’s real-time search, source citations, and multi-step agent workflows need improvement. If those areas improved, it would be very good compared with other AI chatbots.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    I use Perplexity to solve simple to complex math equations and general knowledge questions, and it helps me write paragraphs and essays for assignments.

    I find Perplexity useful for quick research and finding information. It gives me clear answers with source links, so I can verify information without spending hours searching through different websites.

    Feels Like a Research Assistant for Exploring Topics

    Reviewed on Oct 14, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I like how easily I can do proper research on a topic. I usually start with a basic question, then find something interesting in the AI follow-up suggestions and ask about it to explore that particular angle further. Overall, it feels more like having a research assistant...
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Nothing major—just that I wish it did a better job distinguishing genuinely useful findings from information that’s only loosely related to the question. Also, some answers take a bit longer than I’d like.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It saves me from spending hours jumping between tabs when I'm researching a new industry or trying to understand a competitor. I can get the basic picture, identify interesting angles and then investigate the important details myself.

    Perplexity - A Fast and Useful Tool for Research

    Reviewed on Oct 06, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I like how Perplexity makes research faster by combining AI-generated answers with web search and citations. It helps me quickly understand complex topics, verify information, and find useful sources without having to open dozens of websites.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Perplexity is very useful for research, but there are a few areas where I think it could improve. During longer research sessions, the interface can start to feel a bit cluttered, which makes it harder to stay focused. I’d also like to see deeper integrations with the tools I already use as part of my workflow.

    Performance is generally fast, though more complex searches can sometimes take noticeably longer. Pricing is another sticking point for me, because it’s harder to justify paying for advanced features when I only need them occasionally. Onboarding and support could also be clearer, especially when it comes to more advanced use cases.

    My biggest concern is that Perplexity can sound very confident even when the sources are limited or unclear. Stronger source checking and more explicit uncertainty would make the answers feel much more trustworthy.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Perplexity mainly saves me time when I need to research something. Instead of bouncing between a bunch of different websites and trying to figure out what information is reliable, I can usually get a solid starting point with the sources included right there. I use it for market research, competitor research, technical topics, and for checking out new tools or ideas. It’s especially helpful when I’m trying to understand something I’m not familiar with, because I can get up to speed much faster and make decisions without spending hours searching.

    Saves Research Time with Essential Source Citations

    Reviewed on Oct 03, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    It saves me a lot of research browsing before I start designing. The AI models sources citations is so necessary for me. If I'm researching a design pattern or looking at how competitors structure something, I can actually open the sources and see where the information came from..The pricing is pretty affordable too.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Sometimes the research is still too text-heavy for design work. If I'm researching visual patterns, I want to see more actual interfaces and examples rather than just descriptions of them. and its a bit slower to answer..
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    I use it to explore different UI patterns, compare how products structure their pages, and even ask for alternative ways to solve the same UX problem. It saves me a lot of research time... and its very good to find out great relevant answers for me..
