Perplexity AI is an American web search engine that leverages large language models (LLMs) to process user queries and synthesize responses. Unlike traditional search engines, Perplexity aims to provide direct, accurate, and real-time answers, often citing its sources directly. It functions as an AI-powered answer engine, designed to cut through clutter and deliver credible, up-to-date information. The platform is versatile, serving as a tool for answering questions, learning new skills or concepts, and conducting in-depth research. It offers various underlying models, including a lightweight, cost-effective search model for quick, grounded answers, and an offline chat model that provides local AI capabilities without requiring internet search. Perplexity also integrates advanced third-party AI models like OpenAI's GPT-4 Omni and Anthropic's Claude 3.5 Sonnet & Haiku for its premium users. Perplexity is accessible across multiple platforms, including a web application, and dedicated mobile apps for Android and iOS. It also offers a developer API, notably including its proprietary 'Sonar' models, allowing external applications to integrate Perplexity's AI search capabilities. The service operates on a freemium model, offering a free plan with core features and a 'Pro' subscription for enhanced capabilities.

Grok is a generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by xAI, Elon Musk's AI firm. It is based on a large language model (LLM) of the same name and was initially launched in November 2023. Grok is designed to be maximally truthful, useful, and curious, distinguishing itself with a notable "sense of humor" and a unique personality in its responses. One of Grok's key differentiators is its direct access to real-time information from the X platform (formerly Twitter), allowing it to provide up-to-date answers and engage in current discussions. It excels in real-time research, open-ended discussions, and structured problem-solving, making it a versatile AI assistant. The model has seen significant advancements through its versions, particularly with Grok 3, which introduces enhanced reasoning capabilities, a much larger context window, and advanced features like DeepSearch and video processing. Grok is available as a standalone conversational AI chatbot on web browsers and dedicated mobile applications, and is also integrated within the X platform. Developers can access Grok's capabilities through a robust API.
