Perplexity Deep Search

Deep research using Perplexity AI. Comprehensive reports with citations and analysis.

When to Use

Use Case Example
Market research "Competitive analysis of AI coding assistants"
Technology evaluation "Compare vector databases for production use"
Trend analysis "State of MCP ecosystem 2025"
Due diligence "Company X funding, team, product overview"
Learning "Explain quantum computing to a programmer"

vs Other Research Tools

Tool Best For Depth
Perplexity Quick, cited answers Medium
Pokee Deep Research Comprehensive reports Deep (25+ min)
Web Search Specific facts Shallow
arXiv Watcher Academic papers Deep

Workflow

1. Targeted Query

Be specific:

"Compare Supabase vs Firebase for real-time apps in 2025. 
Focus on: scalability, pricing, self-hosting options."

2. Follow-Up Questions

Drill deeper:

"What are the specific limitations of Firebase's real-time 
sync at 10k+ concurrent users?"

3. Synthesis

Combine multiple sources:

"Based on the above, which is better for a startup with 
< 1000 users planning to scale to 100k?"

Output Format

Best Practices

  1. Be specific — Narrow queries get better results
  2. Request citations — Verify claims
  3. Follow up — One query rarely tells the full story
  4. Save findings — Add to MEMORY.md for future reference
  5. Cross-check — Confirm critical facts with primary sources
