Perplexity extends Teammates AI agents to Mac
The feature, previously available on iOS and the web, requires a paid Perplexity Max subscription.
Perplexity has added its Teammates AI agents to its Mac app, expanding access beyond iOS and the web. The company announced the Mac availability on November 13, 2026, with access limited to subscribers of its paid Perplexity Max service.
Teammates is designed to handle continuing assignments without users having to issue prompts constantly. Rather than responding only to individual requests, agents can be assigned responsibility for work that continues over time, according to Perplexity’s description.
The company says a teammate can plan tasks, enlist additional agents as an assignment expands and carry the work through to a result for the user to review. Agents can operate alone or collaborate with other teammates.
Perplexity lists quality assurance, customer service, research and growth marketing among the uses. Other examples include sorting incoming bug reports, monitoring metrics and investigating a new market. The feature uses the company’s existing AI orchestration system.
