@rpn Perplexity just reinvented the computer, with Computer. Think of it like OpenClaw without the security vulnerabilities. To me this is the closest thing we have to Jarvis for the average consumer. The magic of Computer is the multi-model orchestration. Meaning, when you give it a high-level task, this beast breaks it down into multiple sub-tasks to run in parallel, tapping into 19+ frontier models to automatically assign the right one to each sub-task. Combined with thousands of app connections, @perplexity Computer is capable of end-to-end execution across the entire context of your work. Comment “Computer” and I’ll send you a link to try it.

Transcript

Perplexity just reinvented the computer with computer. And it's time to pay attention because it's gonna be hard to compete with somebody using this. Why? What is it? Well, think of it like open claw with an easier better and without the security nightmare. How does it do this? Well, when you describe a desired outcome, let's say, pull live financials on Apple, Microsoft, and Google, build me an interactive comparison dashboard with charts rank create a thirty second narrated video breaking down which stock is the strongest buy. Computer breaks this down into tasks and subtasks rank creates and coordinates multiple agents for the best result, just like your personal team of senior level employees. For example, it might use Opus 4.6 for core reasoning, Gemini 3.1 for the deep market research, and GPT 5.4 to cross reference the financial data. Once that's complete, it'll deploy the live dashboard using SONNET 4.6, generate the charts with No Banana two, and produce the narrated video with VO 3.1. Now you start to see the power of multimodal orchestration because there is no one size fits all model. I mean, each has their own specialization. Perplexity computer is the missing piece to get all the best models to work together. And it's not just finance. I mean, I asked what specific steps I could take to become the best possible creator in tech to research my top 10 competitors, build a battle card for each one, and then package the whole thing into a slide deck. I mean, take a look. Right? What used to take my team a full week was done before my coffee got cold. Then you add the hundreds of connectors available like Gmail, Slack, Google, Calendar, GitHub, Linear, HubSpot to give it the full context of your worse, you start to understand why this is such an unfair advantage, especially in these early days where multi agent AI adoption is remarkably low. Computer. It's the perfect name. It's the first time I feel like I can leverage the power of my PC with a single interface. So So comment computer, and I'll send you a link to try
