Frequently asked questions
What is Perplexity Labs?+
Perplexity Labs is the autonomous deep-research mode inside Perplexity Pro. Runs 5–15 minute multi-source research sessions and outputs structured reports with citations. Available on Perplexity Pro ($20/mo); higher tiers include more Labs sessions per day.
Is Perplexity Pro worth $20/month?+
For anyone doing sourced research — analysts, journalists, lawyers, consultants — yes. The citation accuracy (93% in our testing) is materially better than ChatGPT Plus, and the speed is faster. Most professionals we know pay for both ($20 Perplexity + $20 ChatGPT) — different tools for different jobs.
Perplexity vs ChatGPT — which one to pay for?+
Perplexity wins for sourced research and fact-checking. ChatGPT wins for general chat, writing, coding, voice mode, and agentic tasks. They are complementary, not competitive. Pick by primary use case or pay for both.
