Perplexity AI: A Smarter Way to Search and Verify Information

 

Perplexity AI is a conversational, AI-powered search engine founded in 2022 by Aravind Srinivas, Denis Yarats, Johnny Ho, and Andy Konwinski. The company was established with the objective of developing a transparent and trustworthy alternative to traditional search engines. Unlike conventional platforms that present users with lists of links, Perplexity delivers direct, concise answers supported by inline source citations. This approach allows users to verify information easily while maintaining conversational interaction. Since its launch shortly after the emergence of large language models, Perplexity AI has experienced rapid growth. By prioritizing accuracy, speed, and source attribution, it has attracted a broad user base seeking efficient access to reliable information. By July 2025, the company achieved a valuation exceeding 18 billion dollars and expanded its reach through a partnership that enabled access for approximately 360 million users in India via the Airtel Thanks application.

Perplexity AI offers advantages such as fast responses, concise explanations for complex queries, and an intuitive interface that simplifies navigation. However, it may generate inaccurate or outdated information, requiring verification by users.
