Trustworthy, Well-Sourced Answers With No Hallucinations (thus far)
What do you like best about the product?
Perplexity does a great job of citing its sources and grounding its answers properly; if it cannot determine a definitive answer to your question, it will tell you so instead of hallucinating.
The user interface is appealing and modern enough. One thing I really like is how, while processing a request that takes a lot of thinking and researching several sources, Perplexity will list what it is currently doing, so you don't feel like the app is frozen while the first output starts coming back. AS for speed once the response starts streaming is fast enough to not feel sluggish.
As for integrations, I haven't used them often, but they offer connectors to a several sources including all major cloud drives (OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box), project management (Jira, Monday), Calendars (Google and Outlook Calendars), and even financial institutions like Ramp. That being said, the total number of connectors at this time is still in the dozens, not hundreds.
Spaces (similar to Custom GPTs on ChatGPT or Projects on Claude) allow you to set instructions for every new chat created in that space. This makes it easy to re-use personas, multi-shot examples, and other instructions without copying and pasting on each new conversation. Spaces also work as the main organization method for your chat history, other than chronological order. The current limit for a space's instructions is good enough at 8000 characters, but I've seen larger ones elsewhere.
Selecting models from multiple vendors is a neat feature that you won't get from the vendors themselves (e.g. using ChatGPT means you use OpenAI models only), but the selection is limited to one or two recent models from each of the incumbents in the space (i.e. OpenAI, Anthropic, NVIDIA, Google, MoonShot AI, and of course Perplexity's own models).

What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is one of the aspects where I struggle recommending Perplexity. $20 does not sound like a lot, until you realize that is $240 a year (or $200 for a yearly subscription), and this tier does not include their new Computer agent, which requires a Max subscription or buying credits separately. The $5 API credits included with a Pro subscription can also be restrictive depending on what you want to use them for. Don't get me wrong, you get a lot of value, but I wish there was just a tiny bit more, especially if you don't use it every day.
Another issue I've found thus far is that adding past conversations to new Perplexity Spaces (similar to ChatGPT's Custom GPTs and Claude's Projects) is currently a bit cumbersome, but it is not a deal breaker.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity is helping me do initial research on a variety of topics: identifying potential tax implications of certain types of investments, understanding topics I am confused about, building personalized learning plans for my particular expertise and knowledge gaps, finding resources to help with a current problem, and evaluating and comparing software for particular needs.
Clean, Intuitive Search with Fast, Well-Cited Answers
What do you like best about the product?
Perplexity has a clean, intuitive interface with a beautiful design that makes searching a pleasure. It excels as a replacement for Google search; delivering quick, well-cited answers with transparent sourcing. The AI clearly shows its reasoning process, which makes responses feel trustworthy. It works great for day-to-day browsing and research, handling most queries accurately and efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free plan hits its usage limit quite quickly, which can be frustrating during intensive research sessions. Perplexity is primarily a search and Q&A tool. It's not well-suited for creating longer-form documents, structured reports, or presentations. For those tasks, other AI tools perform significantly better. It would also benefit from improved support for complex multi-step tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity effectively replaces traditional search engines like Google for everyday information needs. Instead of sifting through multiple links, I get direct, well-sourced answers in seconds. It saves significant time when researching topics, comparing options, or getting quick factual answers. The transparent reasoning process also helps me evaluate the quality of the response, which adds confidence to the results.
Powerful Research Automation Tool with Limitations in Accuracy
What do you like best about the product?
I really like Perplexity’s ability to retrieve data from the web. Since I work in research, it used to take me a lot of time to find information by opening each URL and digging through multiple websites. Perplexity has completely changed that for me. With a single prompt, and even when I use customized prompts or system instructions, it delivers the results I’m looking for.
I’ve been using Perplexity for about a year now, and I still haven’t found another tool that does this as well. I’m also using the Comet browser, which I think is awesome because it can control the browser and complete tasks on its own. For research, having a browser that can do that is genuinely valuable.

What do you dislike about the product?
Its biggest drawback lies in its strongest feature, it searches the web amazingly well, but while presenting the source URLs, they are often inaccurate. Sometimes the links are broken and lead to “page not found,” or they appear to be hallucinated.
Also, context is lacking in Perplexity. I’ve found that ChatGPT and Claude provide better context, which sometimes makes me unsure about relying on it.
I have also used Perplexity API keys for data retrieval, but I was quite disappointed with its performance. At times, it didn’t return the data I needed; sometimes it hallucinated results, and occasionally there were errors.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity helps solve the challenge of web research, especially when I need highly customized results. For instance, when I’m trying to identify business opportunities in the North American CDMO space, such as product launches, clinical trial results, funding updates, and mergers and acquisitions, it streamlines the process and keeps everything focused.
I use customized system instructions that spell out the criteria I’m looking for, and with a single prompt I can pull the information I need on a daily basis. Overall, it saves me a lot of time and makes my research significantly more efficient.

What do you like best about the product?
I like the research ability option on it, helps with the deep research aspect of things giving the evidence on the research its done providing links, the papers , the website it has read to provide the evidence
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime it tends hallucinate in adding unnecessary points which werent asked but its not very common
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps in giving deep dive research on tools and code related things
Simple, Cross-Platform Search with Powerful Filters, Sharing, and Spaces
What do you like best about the product?
It can be used in browsers across different operating systems as well as on smartphones. The interface is simple and streamlined, and the various options are easy to spot and understand right away. You can use operators to better refine searches (for example, limiting the query to a specific website or to a defined time period), or choose specific scopes (academic, social, web or finance) depending on where you want to look for information. In the results, links to the sources are clearly provided, so you can open and consult them if needed. You can also share search results with other people and decide what type of access they have for viewing. Shortcuts help speed up input and you can create custom ones to handle recurring actions. In the Spaces area, you can organize searches based on your needs by creating folders dedicated to particular topics or projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it provides incorrect information. Even though it is based on real-time, web-updated sources, I have, for example, come across inaccuracies regarding recent changes in regulations. When I repeated the same search a few days later, or explicitly pointed out that there had been recent updates on the topic, the response I received actually differed from the previous one. For this reason, it’s not appropriate to take everything it says at face value.
More advanced features—such as creating recurring tasks by giving instructions to run certain searches on a defined schedule, choosing which AI model to use, or accessing a dedicated support service—require a Pro subscription.
In the free version, the Spaces area is quite limited, both in the number and types of files you can upload and in the sharing limits with collaborators.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It performs searches in a straightforward way, like a regular search engine, but it also summarizes results from different sites. This helps me find information much faster without having to read countless web pages. I save a lot of time, even when I’m looking for technical information, regulations, or manuals, because it can locate them quickly and support me in my daily work. It’s also useful for sharing information with colleagues.
Efficient, Agnostic Tool for Seamless Workflow and Great Carplay Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Perplexity is agnostic and uses multiple tools, which makes the agentic side of their experience awesome. The Comet Browser is particularly great and I think it's massively underrated. The fact that I can get it to take over and complete tasks for me is fantastic. I also appreciate how Perplexity is fully integrated with all my connectors like Gmail, Drive, and Firefly. Its mobile app is really good, and the web search is fantastic along with the deep research tool. The user experience is very polished, and setting it up was really easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest detractor for me at the moment is for browser control. The daily limit is really low. I would use it a lot more if I could use it a lot more. And it could push some stuff, a bit more on device. I've got a GPU, but it's doing everything in the cloud.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity integrates with my tools like Gmail and Drive, offering fast, efficient task handling and task completion through agentic browsing. I can switch models for complex tasks, and switch models when I want a different opinion. This is something that the frontier labs don't offer.
The Ultimate Research Accelerator: Instant Synthesis with bulletproof citations.
What do you like best about the product?
The UI/UX is incredibly clean, and features like Pro Search have completely transformed my workflow; instead of spending 30 minutes cross-referencing multiple tabs, it synthesizes deeply researched answers in seconds. The performance is blisteringly fast, giving me an immediate ROI on the Pro tier by saving me hours of manual digging every week. An unexpected benefit has been the onboarding—the collection feature allowed my team to organize shared research seamlessly from day one without a learning curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
While the standalone experience is unmatched, the integrations are a bit basic. I'd love to see deeper, native API connections into CRM or project management tools rather than relying entirely on browser extensions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity solves the core pain points of traditional research: information overload, link fatigue, and LLM hallucinations. Instead of forcing you to open 15 open tabs, dodge SEO spam, and manually cross-reference articles, it serves as an autonomous research partner. Here is the breakdown of the problems it solves and exactly how it benefits your research workflow

Great Web Citations and LLM Choice, but Accuracy Lags Behind Direct ChatGPT
What do you like best about the product?
The ability of it to connect to the internet for every chat and reply back with the exact citations of the web link it found the information and the ability to also choose between varied LLM's ranging from Claude to Open AI to Gemini to Grok.
What do you dislike about the product?
The LLM models are quickly added to the choice of LLM models to choose from but the ability or accuracy is lesser than using it directly on Chatgpt or Open AI directly. The accuracy or ability is much better on their app than on Perplexity
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A better alternative to Copilot and quicker results.
