Perplexity Launches $200 AI Agent That Can Run Complex Workflows
-

Perplexity AI has unveiled Perplexity Computer, a new cloud-based agentic tool designed to execute complex workflows autonomously. Available exclusively to subscribers of the $200-per-month Perplexity Max tier, the system reportedly combines 19 AI models into a single orchestrated agent capable of creating subagents to handle specialized tasks.
According to the company, the tool can collect financial, legal, and statistical data, generate analysis, and present results as finished websites or visualizations. Although a planned live demo was canceled due to last-minute product flaws, Perplexity positions this release as a major evolution from its AI-powered answer engine and Comet browser — signaling a move beyond search into full-scale AI task automation.
