Perplexity Launches Multi-Agent Teammates on Mac for Max Subscribers
Perplexity officially announced on November 14 that Teammates, its multi-agent feature, is now live in the Mac app, currently available only to top-tier Max subscribers. The takeaway: this is an AI "teammate" product that can autonomously take on tasks, positioned to share users' actual workload rather than just answer questions.
Confirmed
- Teammates has launched in the Perplexity Mac app; the official account @perplexityai made the announcement, and it is available to Max subscribers
- Teammates can work independently or collaborate with other Teammates to break down and complete larger tasks
- Official example use cases include QA, customer support, research, and growth marketing
- According to @testingcatalog, Teammates can operate Plugins and Skills
- Per user tests relayed by @dnlkwk, one user had a "teammate" handle SEO optimization for their newsletter website, testing it for two straight days with positive feedback
Why it matters
- Teammates marks Perplexity's shift from a search-and-QA tool toward a proactive, task-executing multi-agent product, in line with the industry-wide Agent trend
- Limiting the feature to Max subscriptions signals that Perplexity is bundling advanced agent capabilities with its highest-paid tier
- Early users' real-world SEO work suggests these agents can already handle sustained operational work with practical value
