What it is
Perplexity is an AI-native search/answer engine that orchestrates frontier models plus its own fine-tuned Sonar models, and in 2025 launched the Comet agentic browser. It is more an application/orchestration layer than a from-scratch frontier trainer, but it fine-tunes and serves models and competes for AI search share against Google and OpenAI. It raised at an ~$18B+ valuation and made a high-profile (rebuffed) bid for Chrome.

Every open role on the company's public Ashby job board, the page it publishes for its careers site (careers ↗). Roles, not people. Themes are matched from words in role titles, so they are approximate. Roles that come off the board are tracked from 28 Oct 2026, so closed-role counts appear after a month of history.

Times are New York time. Free sources are pulled on the schedule shown by the pipeline runner (data/corpus/run_pipelines.py), which logs every run; paid sources run only with the owner's yes; filings and newsroom pages are re-read when a new document is filed.
Links come from the AI Systems Map ontology. Deals carry the filing's own wording and a quote, checked against the document; latest source 2026-10-26. Not investment advice.
