What do you like best about Perplexity?I use Perplexity for complex search and text processes, and I like how it manages not to sound overly AI-generated while adding more value to the quality. The most important feature for me is the quality of each search; it stands out because it is high-quality and accurate. I appreciate that I can rely on the results due to their high standard. What I like most about Perplexity is how accurate and high-quality it is. When I compare the same search through different AIs, the difference in terms of quality and relevance on the topic is noticeable. It's not only about conducting a single research, but trusting the information because it's factual and educational. Additionally, the initial setup was pretty easy; I just signed up with my Google account and was ready to navigate through it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?I think overall, the issue with all AI's is the difference among models and paid versions they offer, it's very evident how the results changed depending on the subscription you have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?What I like best about Perplexity is that it gives fast, clear answers while showing the sources behind them, which makes the information feel trustworthy. It also saves time by combining search and summarization in one place, so I can get to the point without digging through lots of tabs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?What I dislike about Perplexity is that it can sometimes be shallow on complex topics and still produce occasional inaccuracies, so I have to verify important details myself. It can also feel a bit limited in personalization and creativity compared with tools that are better for long, nuanced conversations or writing tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?What I like best about Perplexity is that it gives fast answers with sources attached, so I can trust what I’m reading and check it myself. It feels like a search engine and an AI assistant working together instead of making me dig through a bunch of tabs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?What I dislike most about Perplexity is that it can still be shallow or repetitive on harder questions, even when the answer looks polished. It’s great for fast research, but you still have to double-check facts because AI tools can make mistakes or oversimplify complex topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?It works and won't get you trouble if you don't expect too much. Comet is very handy. I don't use it as a primary browser, but it's comfortable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?Well, when things get though, LLMs have it hard. Nothing strange, but you should be aware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?I use Perplexity as my personal reference for work and my children's studies, and I love its ease of use and its great speed in providing multiple answers. It has helped me learn how to create codes and I have become specialized in automation and integration between programs. I recently started using Perplexity Computer to assist me with repetitive work steps, and I find it quick to understand what I need in a professional manner. The setup process was extremely easy and I found it faster in understanding my needs compared to the system I was using before. In fact, I have completely switched to Perplexity from Chat GPT because it is much better according to my experience.

What do you like best about Perplexity?I use it every day for personal calorie tracking, and also for other purposes, such as checking the latest news. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?On rare occasions, it forgets things I’ve asked it to remember, like my height and age, but it recalls them again as soon as I prompt it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?Perplexity doesn’t just have one model; it works more like a model aggregator with citations, and it almost feels too good to be true when I’m doing research. The Deep Research and Apps feature (it was Labs at first) are really useful, the UI looks amazing, and the latest computer update is what convinced me to get the Max subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?Sometimes the citations aren’t accurate, and since its USP was delivering accurate results, it can end up hallucinating too much. The live data integration also doesn’t make it feel unique anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?I like that I can give it a simple prompt, and it will orchestrate a team of agents for me. It's great that instead of dealing with one AI, I'm dealing with a team of AIs and different specialists can be brought in on demand. This makes using Perplexity feel like having a versatile team at my disposal, tailored to meet the exact skills needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?The memory is really failing. So I find I keep having to remind it of stuff that it knows or connectors we've put in place or past conversations, sometimes it advises incorrectly and errantly based on not knowing this memory. I do find that its level of errors is so high. I have to stop using it. My ChatGPT is more consistent with better quality results. And it is token hungry- burned through 45K credits in 30 days- expensive!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?I keep discovering new ways to use it. I started by having it polish things I’d already written, and now it’s helped me create slide decks and brochures, too. I’m sure I’m only scratching the surface, but it’s already been useful in more areas than I expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?Nothing yet! I’m very happy with it so far, and everything has been working well for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Perplexity?I like that Perplexity seems to understand our brand voice and remembers rules very well. It also responds well to feedback, which is great for refining our content writing. I find it useful that it synthesizes the data and links I provide in a meaningful way. Additionally, I felt that the initial setup of Perplexity was easy for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Perplexity?I don't think the way the projects work and tasks work is very intuitive, so I feel like I have one run-on project with lots of different tasks. Also the search feature is either non-existent or I can't find it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
shipped early access of my Mac overlay built with Claude Code, looking for people to try it
Hello everyone. Built this because I was sending 50+ prompts a day across Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity and re-explaining my entire project every single time I opened a fresh chat. Got tired enough of it to build a fix. It's a Mac overlay that sits on top of whichever AI tool you're in and modifies the prompt before it gets sent. Two layers under the hood: a contextual agent that classifies your query and pulls relevant chunks from your vault, and a prompt architect that rewrites your raw input into something clean and properly structured. So you type something messy and what actually reaches the model is a better version of what you meant to ask. The vault uses a GraphRAG setup so the retrieval is semantic, not just keyword matching. Built the whole thing with Claude Code over the past few months as an industrial engineering student with no Mac dev background. Weirdly meta experience using Claude Code to make Claude usage cleaner. Right now I'm focused on improving the classification and the prompt rewriting layer. It's not perfect but it works well enough that I use it every day myself. Looking for people who juggle multiple AI tools and want to try it. Early access is free at getlumia.ca. Any feedback on the architecture or how it feels to use would genuinely help. submitted by /u/r0sly_yummigo [link] [comments]

View originalshipped my first chrome extension this week, came out of pure frustration tbh
been using AI tools nonstop for work and kept noticing my sessions would just... degrade. like the answers would get worse over time in the same chat and i had no idea why. turns out context windows are a thing and after a while the AI literally starts forgetting what you told it at the start so i spent a few weeks building something dumb and simple. it's just a little pill that floats on claude, chatgpt, gemini and perplexity and shows you a live quality score. fresh, warning, degraded. that's it. no backend, no login, nothing stored. just reads what's happening and tells you called it slate. it's free. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dgkgpdchcpofkfhcfapmlljfigchfjjk?utm_source=item-share-cb https://preview.redd.it/nxkh6hanv32h1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a1588cb7283a8375c570a4633547b102850b5c5 submitted by /u/-HydrogeN [link] [comments]
View originalI open-sourced the content SEO pipeline I run entirely in Claude Code — 15 min/day, $0.45/post, real numbers inside
https://preview.redd.it/n0eypvqm032h1.png?width=2266&format=png&auto=webp&s=e7c83a8df3127463e71d37ae22dbeda9538453d3 I've been running a content SEO/AEO operation through Claude Code for about a year and finally cleaned up the slash commands into something forkable. Sharing because the Claude Code crowd is the right audience for this pattern. The pipeline is 7 slash commands chained together. Each command is a markdown file in .claude/commands/ with a strict role + output contract — Claude reads pipeline.yaml for state, runs one step, pauses at a human gate, and updates the state file. Stateless re-entry, so I can stop mid-post and pick up next day with /seo-daily. The flow: /seo-research (Perplexity Deep Research API, ~$0.45/post) → /seo-brief → /seo-write → /seo-optimize (10-check scorecard) → /seo-publish (Sanity HTTP API → IndexNow ping). 4 human gates so I keep judgment over angle, brief, copy, and publish decision. One brand I run this for: 131 → 964 avg impressions/day in 12 months (7.3×). Monthly impressions 2,142 → 39,240 (18×). Blog content from this pipeline drove 51.8% of all GSC impressions across 119 posts. Honest caveat — clicks didn't grow proportionally because titles/meta weren't tuned for CTR yet; that's the next iteration (/seo-refresh command in roadmap). Technical things I'd flag for anyone considering similar: - Sanity MCP's create_documents_from_json overwrites your custom _id with a UUID, breaking deterministic frontends. The publisher uses Sanity's direct HTTP mutation endpoint instead. Documented in the repo. - Brand voice lives in one YAML (config/seo-settings.yaml). The commands read it; no hardcoded brand anywhere. Fork → swap one file → you're running your brand. - Pluggable CMS — Sanity is the reference impl but swapping to WordPress/Contentful/Webflow is one file edit. Repo: https://github.com/viren040/content-seo-orchestrator (MIT) Genuinely curious what other patterns Claude Code users are running for content/marketing ops. The slash-command-as-pipeline pattern feels under-explored. submitted by /u/HeatPrevious1395 [link] [comments]
View originalI built a small Chrome extension for my own Claude workflow, sharing in case it helps others
Hey everyone, I’ve been using Claude a lot for writing and coding, and over time I noticed a few friction points in my workflow. It's mostly around navigation, exporting, and reusing chats across tools. So I ended up building a small Chrome extension for myself and I’ve been iterating on it recently. Right now it does a few simple things: Adds navigation inside long Claude chats (makes it easier to jump between parts of a conversation) One-click export of chats to .md Export “plans” or structured outputs as .md Quick action: copy conversation and send it to other tools (Gemini / ChatGPT / Perplexity) for second opinions It’s still very much a “built for my own workflow” kind of tool, and I’m actively tweaking it as I use Claude more. If anyone is curious, here’s the extension: Claude Code Enhancer Chrome Extension Would be interested to hear how others are handling: exporting Claude outputs cross-checking responses with other models managing long conversations submitted by /u/PlentyButterfly4462 [link] [comments]
View originalScaling LLMs horizontally: hidden-state coupling without weight modification [R]
Residual Coupling (RC) connects frozen language models in parallel using small, learned linear bridge projections. These bridges read hidden states from one model and inject additive updates into the residual stream of another at intermediate layers. In bilateral setups, simultaneous return bridges form a feedback loop that stabilizes both streams without altering base weights. This architecture establishes a two-step paradigm where base models function as memorizers, while lightweight linear bridges handle cross-domain generalization. Constraining the bridges to purely linear maps prevents overfitting because they can only map existing geometric relationships between the frozen representation spaces. As the bridges are optimized against ground-truth target data, they have no incentive to map ungrounded features such as individual models' hallucinations. Keeping the base weights completely frozen eliminates catastrophic forgetting. The system maintains operational closure, transforming inputs through its existing structure rather than changing to accommodate them. Evaluating bilateral RC against Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) routing across the same frozen models shows these results: Medical (3-model): Reduces perplexity to 11.02, compared to 56.80 for MoE and 57.08 for the frozen baseline. This represents an 80.7% reduction. TruthfulQA Health (MC1): Improves accuracy by 9.1 percentage points over the baseline. Independent models have uncorrelated hallucinations, allowing the bridge gates to amplify consistent cross-model updates while suppressing individual errors. Coding Test: CodeGPT-small-py and GPT-2 use different tokenizers, causing a 7-million baseline perplexity on mismatched text. MoE reaches 878, but RC achieves 5.91 by reading hidden states before the output projection collapses. This framework introduces a horizontal scaling axis for multi-model systems, moving beyond vertical scaling via larger monolithic models. Latency remains bounded by the slowest single model. Specialists can be added or removed without retraining the remaining system. In some scenarios, this architecture could replace multi-turn text prompting in agentic workflows with a single parallel forward pass, allowing models and/or bridges to run on separate nodes or edge devices without a central bottleneck. By decoupling memorization from relational alignment, RC bridges provide a framework for scaling multi-model systems and offer a path toward native multi-modal integration.

View originalI converted Google’s AI search guidelines into a Claude skill goog-geo
Google recently published official guidance on how to optimize pages for AI-powered search features like AI Overviews and AI Mode - https://developers.google.com/search/docs/fundamentals/ai-optimization-guide Most of the advice floating around GEO / AI search optimization is still pretty hand-wavy, so I wanted something more concrete. So, I converted Google’s AI search guidance into an open-source Claude Code skill: https://github.com/vishalmdi/goog-geo The skill audits any live URL and turns the guidance into a scored report: Checks whether Googlebot can crawl the page Checks indexability and snippet eligibility Detects noindex, nosnippet, max-snippet, canonicals, robots.txt issues Uses a live browser to inspect rendered DOM and JSON-LD schema Reviews headings, semantic HTML, answer blocks, FAQs, tables, author/date signals Checks whether AI crawlers like GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, and Bingbot are allowed Produces a 100-point GEO / AI search readiness score Gives a prioritized action plan instead of vague SEO advice The main idea is simple - Google’s AI search features are not a totally separate SEO system. They still depend on crawlability, indexability, snippet eligibility, helpful content, and structured/extractable pages. So instead of guessing what “AI optimization” means, this skill audits against the actual signals Google documented. I also added a “what not to do” section because Google explicitly says some popular AI SEO advice is useless or misunderstood, like treating `llms.txt` as a Google AI ranking lever. Would love feedback from anyone working on SEO, content, SaaS landing pages, docs, or AI search visibility. If you find it useful, a GitHub star would help: Repo Link: https://github.com/vishalmdi/goog-geo submitted by /u/vishal_jaiswal [link] [comments]
View originalHow can I prevent Claude from doing this: “Hey, wait a minute! There’s something important I didn’t think about”?
As a first-time user of Claude AI, coming from Gemini, Perplexity, and Genspark, I’m really amazed by the wonderful things Claude can do. However, I’ve noticed that in almost every project or chat, it seems that Claude intentionally saves the best things to say for the end of the conversation. For example, if I ask to analyze a text or some code, or ask for suggestions on how to do things, it starts providing a lot of information and indications on what to do, and then says, “But wait! There’s this fundamental thing I didn’t think of before, this changes everything!!” What the f***?! I was already starting to execute, or I read a wall of text and then you said the exact opposite. It’s as if the reasoning is exposed but not tagged as reasoning (Gemini tags its reasoning with a different font dimension). Also, sometimes it seems like it purposely wants to prolong the conversation. Let’s be clear, I love the final result, much better than the aforementioned LLMs, but this is something I’m still not embracing yet. submitted by /u/FinnedSgang [link] [comments]
View originalFree MCP server that audits pages for AI-citation eligibility (13 tools, no API keys)
I've been thinking about a gap in the MCP ecosystem: there are tools for web search, document reading, and code execution, but nothing that audits a page for the signals AI assistants actually use when deciding what to cite. So I built one. The AI-SEO MCP gives Claude (and any other MCP-compatible agent) 13 tools to audit, score, and rewrite pages for AI-citation eligibility. The things it checks are the ones that matter specifically for AI search - not classic SEO factors: - FAQPage JSON-LD schema (structured answers are what AI assistants extract) - robots.txt posture per AI crawler - GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, and 7 more - llms.txt presence and spec compliance - Citation worthiness score broken down by engine (Perplexity, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Claude) - Entity density and sameAs link coverage - Two rewrite tools (rewrite_for_aeo and rewrite_for_geo) that use MCP sampling to have Claude actually do the rewrite under a structured rubric Install is one npx line: ``` npx -y u/automatelab/ai-seo-mcp ``` Then add the usual config block to claude_desktop_config.json. No API keys. No registration. MIT license. It fetches public URLs directly and respects robots.txt by default. One thing I found useful while building it: GPTBot and OAI-SearchBot are separately controllable in robots.txt, but most sites either block both or allow both. The MCP surfaces this - you can block GPTBot (training) while explicitly allowing OAI-SearchBot (ChatGPT search retrieval). That distinction alone has been worth adding to the audit for a few sites I've tested it on. Happy to answer questions about the implementation or what the audit output looks like in practice.

"I publish 20+ papers a year with my students, how do you expect me to read everything?" "What about teams with 100s of people? How can you expect the authors to check references?" "Who reads references in depth anyways!?" These responses are very revealing how academia works.

View originalWhen ChatGPT cites your website, how often does anyone actually click through?
Curiosity-driven question. I've been tracking AI referral traffic via Zen Reports across a handful of sites, and ChatGPT's click-through rate to cited sources seems much lower than Perplexity's. Perplexity has a more prominent citation UI and seems to drive more direct traffic. Happy to share more about my setup if it's helpful ; always curious how others are approaching the same problem. There's clearly no industry-standard answer yet, which is why I'm asking here. ChatGPT citations seem to drive traffic primarily when the user goes to do further research.
