Perplexity's always-on AI agent that runs 24/7 on a Mac to operate apps, files, and the web.
Personal Computer is Perplexity's AI agent that runs through the Perplexity macOS app and stays on around the clock on a Mac mini. A single taskbar shortcut summons it anywhere on the machine, and it orchestrates teams of agents across more than 20 frontier models to carry out an objective.
It reads, writes, and searches connected local folders, operates native Mac apps such as Mail, Messages, Notes, and Finder, and drives the Comet browser for research and web automation. Tasks can be started from an iPhone, voice mode accepts spoken instructions, and actions run in an isolated sandbox with on-device authorization for sensitive steps.
