Details
- Perplexity announces Projects, described as an evolution of its existing Spaces feature within Computer.
- Projects act as hubs for ongoing work, providing a single place to manage, create, and collaborate on tasks.
- Each Project includes a shared file system that Computer can read, edit, and save across sessions, allowing work to accumulate over time.
- Collaborative Projects let teammates operate from the same source of truth, ensuring consistency in files and task context.
- Projects are integrated with Brain, Computer's self-improving memory system, which reviews files and session history between tasks to update its knowledge.
- This integration means each new task in a Project can start with full context from prior work, improving continuity and reducing setup time.
- Projects are available immediately to all users, with Perplexity linking to additional reading for more details on the functionality.
Impact
By turning Computer into a persistent, shared workspace tied to an evolving memory layer, Perplexity moves closer to full-fledged AI-native project management. The combination of a common file system and Brain-based context positions Computer as a more durable collaborator, potentially reducing tool-switching and challenging traditional productivity and knowledge-management platforms that lack integrated AI memory.
