Perplexity opened its Personal Computer feature to all Mac users via a new desktop app, after previously limiting it to Max subscriber waitlist. The feature gives AI agents access to local files, native Mac apps, over 400 connectors, and the web. It runs in a secure server-side environment rather than locally. Access requires a Pro or Max subscription. The existing Mac app will be deprecated in coming weeks. The system can be accessed remotely via iPhone and integrates with the Perplexity Comet browser. The move positions Perplexity against local AI assistants and Apple's own intelligence features.
