Every GenAI company out there has managed to leave us flattered with their latest innovations and tech. Now Perplexity has a new feature that lets can research and write reports for us.
Highlights:
- Perplexity AI launches Pages, a new AI feature that will help you generate Web Pages based on your prompts.
- Users can customize and rearrange your content in Pages, just as they want.
- Perplexity Pages will first be made available to a select group of users before becoming accessible to everyone soon.
Deep Dive into Perplexity Pages
Perplexity AI has launched a brand-new feature called Perplexity Page that will allow users to do the searching, writing, and laying out of a report with just a single prompt. This can assist users in producing quick reports, how-to tutorials, and visually appealing articles.
Pages make it simple to generate, arrange, and distribute information. You can immediately search for any topic and get a beautifully prepared, well-structured article. With just one click, publish your work among Perplexity’s expanding collection of user-generated material and distribute it straight to your audience.
Imagine a perfectly structured web page/ report containing all the important points and headlines, with all the necessary information, aligned with visually captivating images, all of that is possible with Perplexity’s Pages. You can enhance your articles by adding images generated by Pages and those that you upload from your collection or find elsewhere.
However the best thing about Pages is that, your web page summaries will be customizable and adaptable. Whether you’re writing for general readers or subject matter experts, you can adjust the tone of your page so that it appeals to them.
Furthermore, you can easily add, alter, or remove sections from your post to better fit your content and keep readers interested.
How does Pages Work?
The workflow behind Perplexity Pages is quite interesting.
After using Perplexity’s AI search models to gather data, Pages produces a research presentation that can be shared and published. In the prompt box, users type the subject of their report or the information they’d like to know. Their content can target a more general audience, experienced readers, or beginners.
After the prompt input, Perplexity’s platform searches for the data divides it into pieces for drafting the web page, and includes images. After that, users can alter the text, reformat it, or even remove them. They can also include sections with related material, such as images, videos, and text instructions.
However, a big catch here is that to correct any errors, you must compose a new prompt because you are unable to change the text that Pages generate. This can come off as very hectic for some users who would like to redo all the work again from scratch for one simple error. I personally wouldn’t.
Let’s hope Perplexity fixes this one in the days to come.
How Can You Access It?
According to Perplexity, pages will first be made available to a select group of users before eventually becoming accessible to everyone. Although users can only create pages on the web, Perplexity mobile apps also allow users to view their creations.
To access Pages, you need to first log in or sign up for Perplexity AI. Then you will arrive at the home dashboard. Navigate to the left panel and click on the library button. Then you will see the Page option, click on it to get started with Pages.
You will be asked to provide a prompt, as a heading for your page. Following that your web page content will be generated.
Some Amazing Pages Generated by Users
I gathered some of the best Pages generated by Perplexity users, just hours after the release of the feature. Here are a few of them.

Also, the images are finely aligned and well-represented to make the overall content visually more appealing. The page is available online, where you can read it as well.
3) Things To Do In Berlin In July
Lastly, here’s another Page I found quite interesting. It’s based on a few things you can do in Berlin in July.

Here Perplexity becomes a perfect guide, explaining the whole content as what can be done in the city of Berlin during the month of July. The most interesting part is that it even shows a Berlin map showing which activities take place in each of these locations!
I’m really amazed overall by Perplexity’s Pages feature and the way it drafts out reports-type web pages for you based on any prompt. In any case, we can almost call it that we now have an AI that can conduct research for us.
However, in reality, this is not research but just simple Information Retrieval across the internet and putting it together in one place. Maybe we are still far from a future where AI tools become scientists and conduct research for us.
Also, recently SoundHound AI collaborated with Perplexity for their AI search engine.
