Sonar is moving to the Agent API.
The Perplexity Agent API keeps grounded web search, and adds multi-step research, code execution, built-in tools, and access to multiple models through one API.
On BrowseComp and WideSearch, Agent API more than doubles the best Sonar score.
Grok 4.6 is now available in Perplexity and Perplexity Computer.
On WANDR, it sits on the Pareto frontier of performance and efficiency, matching Fable 5 results at over 60% lower cost.
We released Search as Code (SaC) in June, achieving state-of-the-art performance on wide and deep research.
This week, we’re rolling out optimizations to SaC that further improve performance while cutting cost per task by nearly 10%.
How an SDK is shaped determines how well models can use it.
We’ve rolled out two batches of Search SDK updates within Computer, raising execution reliability from 81.9% to 92.6%.
More reliable action execution enables more capable orchestration.
These improvements show up across a wide range of real-world user workflows.
In Computer, SaC optimizations delivered higher user satisfaction at an 8% lower per-task cost.
