Perplexity launches always-on AI Teammates for work, but only on its $200 a month Max plan

The Verge reports that Perplexity has launched Teammates, always-on agents that can take on different roles in a workspace and pull in projects, skills and memory from the Perplexity tools you already use. They build on Perplexity Computer, run several jobs at once, and each gets its own thread you can follow in the app or in Slack. They need the $200 a month Max plan.

• Unless you already pay for Max you cannot use it, so there is nothing to buy today. If you want to test the idea, give any cheaper AI tool one repeating job first, such as a weekly competitor check.
• If you do try agents at work, give each a single clear job and review its output before it reaches a customer.
