Perplexity
What it is
Perplexity fused search and LLMs into an answer engine: every response cites its sources, follow-ups keep context, and focus modes target academic papers, Reddit, or video. Deep Research autonomously reads dozens of sources into structured reports; Pro unlocks frontier models and file uploads. For many, it has replaced Google for real questions.
