Perplexity has launched its Personal Computer tool for Windows, extending its AI agent capabilities to the Windows operating system. This release follows the Mac version introduced in April and aims to integrate AI functionality directly into the most widely used PC environment.
The Personal Computer for Windows operates as a "general-purpose digital worker" that can access local files and applications. It performs actions such as creating documents and updating spreadsheets, bridging the gap for enterprise work that typically occurs on local Windows devices.
This launch builds upon existing integrations with Microsoft 365 workspace applications and Teams virtual meeting software, which Perplexity introduced in May. The Windows version allows users to interact with local files, Microsoft Office 365, and the web from a single interface.
Personal Computer for Windows is rolling out to paying Max and Enterprise Max users, with subscription tiers starting from $200 per month. Perplexity states that the tool does not train on company data and notifies users before performing sensitive actions like sending emails or deleting files.
