GLM 5.3 is now available in Perplexity Computer. Built for long-context, multimodal agent workloads, it beat GLM 5.2 on WANDR, our benchmark for large-scale, evidence-backed research.

Perplexity Computer now connects to Dun & Bradstreet, Guidepoint, IBISWorld, and 20+ other partners. Analysts can pull Dun & Bradstreet company data, search Guidepoint expert transcripts, and check IBISWorld industry forecasts inside one research thread. To connect, select a provider in Settings → Connectors and sign in with an existing license. Available now to all Perplexity users. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gbZc9PJw

Today we’re launching Portable Computer on NVIDIA DGX Spark. Portable Computer is a fully local version of Perplexity Computer, where the entire runtime: orchestrator LLM, subagent LLM, agent harness all run on your local hardware. No cloud dependency. When a task needs frontier reasoning, the orchestrator asks for approval before routing it to a frontier model in the cloud. It's user-gated, PII-flagged, and text guidance only. Your sensitive documents stay on your device. Portable Computer runs a post-trained and locally installed PPLX 27B model. Qwen 3.8 27B is also available, with support for NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning coming soon. Portable Computer is available today for all Perplexity Pro and Max subscribers with an NVIDIA DGX Spark.

We're hosting a live workshop on how teams are using Computer to get answers from their data warehouse in plain language Answers From the Data Warehouse will be on September 3 at 12pm ET, hosted by Patrick Summers and Noah Yonack from our data team. Register below:

DeepSeek V4 Pro, hosted in the U.S., is now available in Perplexity Computer. We evaluated it against other models on WANDR. It scored 0.359 at $0.75 per task, 62% cheaper than the next model on the cost-performance frontier.

Computer now works in email. Send, forward, or cc computer@perplexity.com on any thread. Every email task runs as a normal session in Computer, viewable on web and mobile, with the same audit trail as any task in the app. Computer in Email is available to all Computer users today.

Grok 4.6 is now available in Perplexity and Perplexity Computer. On WANDR, it sits on the Pareto frontier of performance and efficiency, matching Fable 5 results at over 60% lower cost.

GPT 5.6 Terra and Luna are now live in Perplexity Computer. Terra is the new default model for all Computer subagents, while Luna will serve as the primary model for scheduled automations. Terra is also available as an orchestrator model in Computer. Terra is built for complex goal-oriented work, making it an ideal subagent. On WANDR, Terra scores 11 points above Sonnet while delivering order-of-magnitude cost reductions. Luna handles recurring workflows where speed and cost matter.

Small teams and builders are using Perplexity Computer to ship products faster, running parallel tasks across the tools and apps they use every day. Perplexity Computer connects to GitHub, Stripe, Supabase, Datadog, Slack, and 400+ other apps and carries context across files, memory, and past sessions. Write code, open PRs, deploy, and monitor all in one place. Computer orchestrates agents with access to 15+ models, picking the best one for each task.
