How Perplexity AI Is Changing Web Search

Perplexity AI has carved out a unique position in the AI landscape as an answer engine rather than a chatbot. By combining conversational AI with real-time web search and source citations, Perplexity offers something neither Google nor ChatGPT can match alone.

The company has grown rapidly, reaching millions of daily active users. Its Pro tier, powered by multiple model options, has become a go-to tool for researchers, journalists, and anyone who needs sourced, up-to-date information.
