When to Use Perplexity vs. Built-in Search

Use Perplexity when:

• You need current information (news, prices, events, recent developments)
• The user asks for source citations or references
• Complex multi-step reasoning is required
• The user specifically mentions Perplexity or wants research-style answers
• You need exhaustive analysis across multiple sources
