In plain terms
A page of links is not an answer.
Perplexity answers the question and shows its sources. Here is what changes.
Without it
- Hours lost sifting search results page by page
- Answers repeated from memory with no source attached
- Research quality depending on who did the googling
- Frontier models rationed to whoever pays for what
With it
- Direct answers with the sources attached
- Deep research that reads dozens of pages and reports back
- A consistent research method the whole team can follow
- One subscription carrying the frontier models per query
What CG TECH can do with Perplexity Pro
The work, broken into the parts that matter.
Sourced, so it can be checked
Every answer cites the pages behind it, which is the difference between research and confident guessing. For due diligence, procurement and client work, that audit trail is the point.
answers you can verify before you rely on them
The long read, delegated
Deep Research works a question across dozens of sources and returns a structured, cited report, turning an afternoon of tab juggling into minutes of review.
an afternoon of research in minutes
Frontier models, one seat
Pick the model per query: Perplexity’s own Sonar models or frontier options from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, matched to the question rather than the default.
the right model per question
The research layer, honestly placed
Perplexity is where sourced, current answers live. Long drafting, coding and deep Microsoft 365 work belong with Claude or Copilot, and we design the stack so each tool does its best work.

Questions we hear a lot
Common questions about Perplexity Pro
What is Perplexity Pro?
Perplexity Pro is the paid individual plan for people whose work runs on questions. It gives unlimited sourced answers, deep research that reads widely and reports back, and a choice of frontier models for each query. Every answer carries its citations, so it can be checked before it is trusted.
How is this different from a search engine?
A search engine returns links for you to read. Perplexity reads them and returns a direct answer with the sources cited, so you verify rather than sift.
How is it different from ChatGPT or Claude?
Perplexity is built around live, cited search rather than generation. It answers from current sources with references attached, where chat assistants shine at drafting, analysis and coding. Most of our clients run both, deliberately.
Can we trust the answers?
Trust the sources, not the summary. Every answer links its citations, and the working practice we train is simple: check the source before the answer matters. That habit is what makes AI research defensible.
When is Pro worth it over the free version?
When research is a daily part of the job. Pro removes the daily limits, adds the frontier models, deep research, file analysis and Spaces. We help you decide seat by seat.
Who on our team gets the most from it?
People who research every day: bid and tender writers, analysts, consultants, marketers, and anyone tracking a market or a competitor. If someone spends more than an hour a day looking things up, Pro tends to pay for itself quickly.
Which model should we pick for a question?
For a quick factual lookup the default is fine. For a question with several moving parts, pick a reasoning model and give it a fuller brief. We set out a simple rule of thumb during training so people are not guessing.
Can we move people from Pro to a team plan later?
Yes. Many businesses start with individual Pro seats to prove the value, then move to Enterprise Pro when they want single sign on, an admin console and shared Spaces.
