Perplexity Teammates screenshot shows agents on Datadog duty, reading PRs overnight
testingcatalog · x · 2026-11-14
A screenshot shared by testingcatalog reveals how Perplexity Teammates actually work in the Mac app. Built for Max subscribers, they're described as workplace agents for ongoing, autonomous work: give them a job or responsibility, and they plan the work, execute multiple tasks in parallel, and pick the right model for each part.
The demo shows one Teammate:
- Connected to Datadog monitors, on duty 6pm–8am
- Reading the last 20 merged PRs, setting up alert routing, preparing a rollback plan template
- Only paging the user for approvals: "On call until 8am, I'll only page you for approvals"
The sidebar shows Teammates listed alongside Projects, assignable to specific ones like "TC Secretary" and "TC Analyst".
