Perplexity Computer – Unified AI system for autonomous project execution

Summary: Perplexity Computer integrates multiple AI models to autonomously research, design, code, deploy, and manage projects end-to-end. It orchestrates 19 specialized models in parallel, routes tasks to the best model, connects to user tools, and maintains context within secure, isolated environments.

What it does

It breaks goals into tasks and subtasks, spins up specialized sub-agents, and runs them concurrently until completion. It supports web research, document drafting, data processing, and API calls within real filesystems and browsers.

Who it's for

Ideal for users needing comprehensive AI-driven project management that integrates multiple models and tools for complex workflows.

Why it matters

It moves beyond AI chat assistants by executing tasks autonomously with model-agnostic routing and user control over models and token budgets, enabling sustained, accurate project completion.
