What Perplexity Computer does
Perplexity Computer is a general-purpose digital worker designed to handle tasks that span multiple steps and tools. It can research topics, browse the web, create documents and apps, and take actions in connected services. Work runs in the background, so you can move on while it continues. Computer uses subagents to break complex tasks into parallel or sequential steps and maintains persistent context across runs. Recurring monitoring tasks are also supported, making it suitable for ongoing workflows such as tracking data sources or generating regular summaries.
