Perplexity's 'teammates' are the company's AI agents for daily work tasks

Perplexity has launched its personal AI agents called "teammates," which are designed to be able to tackle ongoing work autonomously with minimal supervision. The agents work inside Perplexity Computer, the company's cloud-based agentic assistant that can perform multi-step tasks for you. Perplexity explains that the new agents build on top of Computer and come with "additional capabilities for ongoing, large-scale work."

You'll be able to assign each teammate its own role or task that they can all then perform simultaneously. Teammates work together, and they can even manage other teammates to make sure your tasks are getting done. They can also bring in more teammates and plan the newcomers' tasks accordingly, the more work you give them.
