Perplexity launches Teammates agents that own ongoing work
Perplexity has launched Teammates, agents that monitor long-running work, act as conditions change and return results for human review, as a web research preview for Max users.
AT A GLANCE
Key points
- Teammates monitor ongoing work and can act without a fresh prompt.
- Each agent runs in an isolated environment with user review and takeover controls.
- The research preview is launching on the web for individual Max subscribers.
What is changing?
Perplexity introduced Teammates, personal agents designed to own ongoing work rather than handle one-off prompts. Teammates use Projects, Skills, memory, files and connected tools inside Perplexity Computer to plan work, monitor changes across areas such as research, sales, support and operations, and initiate follow-up steps without waiting for a new prompt.
Each Teammate runs in a separate environment and browser session. Users can review progress updates and approval requests, take over the desktop or redirect the agent. Teammates can receive work from Slack channels and hand tasks to one another. Perplexity is initially offering the feature as a web research preview for individual Max subscribers, with iOS access planned later.
