Perplexity teammates come to the Mac app for Max subscribers

Perplexity added teammates to its Mac app for Max subscribers. They launched on the web earlier this month.

A teammate is an agent you give a role and ongoing work, such as QA, customer service, research or growth marketing. It can work alone or with other teammates. In Perplexity's demo, you click Create teammate in the Mac app and name a role. A Store Manager teammate then introduces itself and offers to keep stock and reorders on track, with a side panel listing its agents, its progress, a low-stock report and a Shopify plugin.

Perplexity's help article describes teammates as a research preview for individual Max plans. They draw on the plan's monthly credits.
