Perplexity brings AI agents feature called Teammates to the Mac

This week, Perplexity has deployed its new proactive agentic AI feature called Teammates to the Mac. Perplexity Teammates were previously limited to iOS and the web. Similar to Grok Bot, Perplexity Teammates are task-oriented proactive agentic AI threads that work for you without constantly being prompted. Meta Muse and ChatGPT Dots are similar, but use a single chat model rather than supporting multiple instances. Here’s more about Perplexity Teammates: Teammates are a team of AI agents that own ongoing work. Give a teammate a responsibility, such as managing a growth campaign, triaging incoming bug reports, tracking your metrics, or researching a new market, and it owns that work around the clock. It plans the tasks, brings in more agents when the work grows, and follows through until the result is ready for your review. Access to Teammates currently requires a paid Perplexity Max subscription. The feature builds on top of Perplexity’s existing AI orchestration system. Teammates are now available in the Perplexity Mac app for Max subscribers.Teammates take on work for you. They work individually or with other teammates to handle QA, customer service, research, growth marketing, and more. pic.twitter.com/IDmvATZaJ6— Perplexity (@perplexity_ai) November 13, 2026 Related Perplexity stories: Perplexity’s Computer can now run entirely on your Mac, even offline Perplexity launches privacy-minded ‘hybrid compute’ AI feature for Mac Perplexity upgrades Mac app with ChatGPT-powered voice mode FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.
