Deep Research Welcomes a New Player.

Just recently, the AI startup Perplexity launched the Deep Research feature, which can generate in-depth research reports on any topic.

And it's available for free to everyone—non-subscribers can perform up to 5 queries per day, while Pro users can execute up to 500 queries daily.

For comparison, OpenAI's Deep Research requires a $200 monthly subscription.

Perplexity's Deep Research saves users hours of time. When a user asks a Deep Research question, Perplexity performs dozens of searches, reads hundreds of sources, and infers from the materials to autonomously generate a comprehensive report.
