Perplexity announced on November 14 that it is inviting paid Max subscribers to try "Teammates," an AI agent feature, in the Mac version of its app; the feature was previously available only on iOS and the web and now extends to desktop work scenarios. Teammates are a set of "AI teammates" each assigned a specific role; instead of the back-and-forth chat style in which users ask questions and issue instructions step by step, they focus on continuously advancing work around a responsibility. After a user assigns a task, the AI plans the execution steps and follows through until the results are ready for the user to review. According to Perplexity, users can have these "teammates" manage growth marketing campaigns, triage newly received software bug reports, track business metrics, or conduct research on new markets. As the scale of a task grows, the system can bring in more AI agents to collaborate; official examples of use cases include quality assurance, customer service, research, and growth marketing, supporting both a single agent working alone and multiple "teammates" working together.

Achieving “Lying Flat” at Work: Perplexity for Mac Launches “AI Teammates” to Build Your Around-the-Clock Digital Workforce

IT之家 reported on November 14 that Perplexity today (November 14) announced it is inviting paid Max subscribers to try the AI agent feature “Teammates” in the Mac version of the Perplexity app. The feature was previously available only on iOS and the web, and now further covers desktop office scenarios.

Teammates can be understood as a group of “AI teammates,” each with its own division of labor. Unlike the chat approach that requires users to repeatedly ask questions and issue instructions step by step, it focuses on continuously advancing work around a responsibility. After the user assigns a task, the AI plans the execution steps and follows up until the result is ready for the user to review. IT之家 includes the related introduction video below:

According to Perplexity’s introduction, users can have these “teammates” manage growth marketing campaigns, triage newly received software bug reports, track business metrics, or conduct new market research.

When the scale of a task expands, the system can also bring in more AI agents to collaborate. Officially listed use cases include quality assurance, customer service, research, and growth marketing, supporting both a single agent working alone and multiple “teammates” cooperating.

This update builds on Perplexity’s existing AI orchestration system, with the focus on moving AI further from “answering questions” toward “continuously taking responsibility for a piece of work.” However, the above capabilities are official feature descriptions; the report did not provide independent hands-on test results, nor did it disclose specific usage quotas, Mac system version requirements, or other details.
