Perplexity's Teammates Work the Night Shift
Perplexity introduces Teammates, an always-on agent system that integrates with Computer, handles multiple roles and executes large-scale tasks simultaneously. The offering targets subscribers of the $200 Max plan.

š„ What happened
Perplexity launched "Teammates" ā always-on AI agents that juggle multiple roles in a workspace, pulling projects, skills, and memory from your existing Perplexity tools. Built on Perplexity Computer, each agent runs its own thread and can be driven from Slack.
š” Why it matters
This is a direct shot at OpenAI's Dots and Claude Duet ā but at a steep toll: Teammates requires the $200/month Max plan. CEO Srinivas envisions "hundreds of teammates working for each person" across every org.
ā” Our take
Always-on agents are the next battleground, but $200/month for a feature rivals ship cheaper is a bold bet. Perplexity is wagering that deep workspace integration justifies a premium over raw model power.
