PERPLEXITY LAUNCHES MAC VERSION OF AI ASSISTANT

The new software builds on capabilities Perplexity debuted with Perplexity Computer in February. Personal Computer functions as a suite of computer use agents designed to handle intricate, continuous tasks by working with your existing tools and data. The platform joins competing offerings from Claude and OpenAI, which have similarly rolled out computer-use capabilities. These AI agents can interact with multiple applications simultaneously, access web resources, and manage files to complete multi-step workflows without constant user intervention. Perplexity positions Personal Computer for users seeking to automate repetitive or complex processes across their digital workspace. The Mac release marks the company's expansion onto Apple's platform as AI agent adoption grows across the industry. Availability begins today.
