I never found a way to adopt the old version of Perplexity in my investment process, but the things you can one-shot in Perplexity Computer are mind bogglingly good, and it has become a daily driver for me (for the avoidance of doubt, this is not a sponsored post). For example, I always created a guidance credibility analysis, which is a 10-year study of company guidance behavior vs. ultimate results in subsectors: which companies consistently beat/missed/held? These trends can be strong initial indicators of business momentum shifts (i.e. a beat and raise story who just held guidance in Q3 for the first time in 5 years has some information). And you see patterns here that cause you to skeptically question guidance (high or low). Perplexity Computer can one shot this with a 9-page report. Validation is critical, so I may have a different Perplexity Computer space or a Claude CoWork session go and systematically validate, then spot check & validate any key events by hand. But the ability to spin this up quickly, at scale is but one of many emerging capabilities that has me very excited about the very recent agentic capabilities. Computer (@AskPerplexity) We're hosting a Perplexity Computer stock pitch competition starting on March 30th for students enrolled in a US undergraduate or graduate program. Students will have 1 week to research, analyze, and pitch a publicly-listed stock, using only Perplexity Computer. — https://nitter.net/AskPerplexity/status/2036470683308544495#m
