The Deep Research capability leverages DeepSeek to provide reasoned answers and complete research write ups. I also like the attribution for any external sources which are used. You can choose from a variety of LLMs and reasoning models to compare results. > > **Cons**: Initially the lag time to produce an answer took time to get used to. However they do provide good UX via status updates so now the 5-10 delay is more palatable. Even if you buy the $20 / month plan, you still need to pay extra for API access beyond $5. However the token cost is affordable. > > Perplexity has replaced google for any search query that requires more context and reasoning. As LLMs become smarter and faster, I see myself using Perplexity most of the time. ----- ### "Excellent review for perplexity" — 5.0/5 > **Badru** | *9 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It’s ability to give detailed explanation for comprehensive understanding and also the of adding of enhance search functionality and resources sharing > > **Cons**: Nothing to be precise.
