// Description

Perplexity is an AI-powered search engine that combines real-time web search with LLM answers. Unlike ChatGPT or Claude, Perplexity cites every statement with sources — ideal for research, fact-checking, and evidence-based decision making.

The Pro version uses various LLMs (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini) and offers extended research features like follow-up questions, focus modes (Academic, Writing, Math), and file upload analysis. Especially valuable for marketing teams: competitive research, trend analysis, and data-driven content creation with verifiable sources.

Perplexity also plays a growing role in AI visibility (Answer Engine Optimization): brands cited in Perplexity answers reach a new search audience.
