Fair point. I should have been more precise in my critique of their business model.
You're right that their search and indexing tech is proprietary. My "middleman" comment was referring only to the final generation model (GPT-4, Claude, etc.), which is sourced from other providers (plus their own internal Sonar model).
My preference is to use the synthesis models directly, but I concede that calling the entire service a "middleman" wasn't entirely accurate.

Why? Can you elaborate?
I've personally found it to be better than Google for synthesizing answers on complex topics quickly. It's especially great that it remembers context about you to tailor its answers. For example, when I asked about cars I was researching, it contextualized the research to the area of the US I live in and to my usual commute because I had asked it questions about both before. When I asked it for advice on what to pack for a go bag for labor, it knew which hospital I was going to and added info about in hospital stay options as well as nearby hotels.
It's still a bit pricey at $240 annually compared to Gemini at the same price which gives a bunch more including coverage for my Nest cameras, but I'm seriously considering keeping it.
You can cancel right away and still get the 12 months without worrying about auto charge. Just did it
I asked Perplexity, this is a snippet of the reply. Ask it yourself for the details.

Access after canceling:
When you cancel, the subscription is set to stop renewing at the end of your current billing cycle (monthly or annual).
You keep Pro features and remaining usage until that cycle ends; access does not usually stop immediately unless a refund fully reverses the purchase.
Timing and refunds
If you cancel well before the next renewal date, it will not renew again, and you simply use the remaining paid time.
Refund options depend on region and plan type, with specific windows (for example, short refund windows for monthly vs annual and extended windows in the EU/UK/Turkey and South Korea).
If you want, share whether you subscribed via web, iOS, or Android, and what country you're in, and a tailored step-by-step can be outlined for your exact case.

Perplexity Pro lets you use popular LLMs (such as GPT-5 and Gemini 2.5), as well as grants you over 300 Pro searches per day, unlimited access to deep research, and unlimited file uploads. Otherwise, you can access Perplexity Labs and generate images and videos. This tier also unlocks Perplexity Pro Perks, which include deals on a variety of third-party products and services. You can also prevent Perplexity from using your data to train its models at this level.
Perplexity brands itself as an "AI-powered answer engine" and not an AI chatbot. It focuses more on AI-powered search than ChatGPT or Gemini, and its design reflects this use case. This is most noticeable when trying to have a conversation with Perplexity, as it is much less conversational than a chatbot.

I'm on a year trial from T-Mobile in Croatia (long story). Is it possible to stack the Venmo/PayPal offer if I'm already on one?
