# Perplexity replaces Spaces with persistent Projects

By Steven Van · 2026-07-29

Projects adds a shared file system and persistent memory for multi-session work in Perplexity Computer.

[Perplexity](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/perplexity>) launched **Projects**, positioned as an evolution of Spaces and built specifically as hubs for ongoing work inside Perplexity Computer, its agentic workspace product. The core idea is continuity: a single place to manage, create, and collaborate on tasks, backed by a shared file system and persistent memory.

## What Spaces was missing

Spaces organized conversations and files into a shared context, but agentic work in Computer tends to span many sessions over days or weeks, researching a topic, drafting a document, revising based on feedback, handing pieces off to collaborators. Without persistent memory tied to that specific body of work, each session risked losing context that had to be re-established. Projects folds a shared file system and persistent memory directly into the hub, so returning to a project days later picks up where things left off rather than starting cold.

## Why this matters for Computer specifically

Computer is Perplexity's agentic product, running longer, more autonomous tasks than a single chat exchange. Persistent memory is the piece that makes multi-session agentic work actually usable at a team or project level, an agent revisiting a project needs to know what's already been decided, what files already exist, and what the current state of the work is, not just the most recent prompt.

## Fits a broader shift toward durable AI workspaces

Projects reflects a pattern showing up across AI tools generally: moving from ephemeral chat sessions toward durable, stateful workspaces that persist context the way a real project folder or shared drive would. For teams using Perplexity Computer for real ongoing work rather than one-off queries, that's the structural change that makes it usable as an actual workspace instead of a series of disconnected conversations.
