Perplexity’s Pipeline Improves Base Model Accuracy and Efficiency
By
–
This pipeline is why the same base model produces more accurate, better-cited, and more efficient answers inside Perplexity than out of the box. Read our research:

Reward Design Balances Correctness Preference Efficiency
By
–
Our reward design combines correctness, preference, and efficiency. Preference only counts when the answer is correct. This keeps the model from optimizing for better-sounding wrong answers.

Fine-tuning and On-Policy RL for Model Optimization
By
–
We first fine-tune the model to follow instructions, stay within guardrails, and keep language consistent. Then we run on‑policy RL to improve search accuracy and tool efficiency while preserving those behaviors.

New Research: SFT+RL Pipeline Boosts Search-Augmented AI Accuracy
By
–
We've published new research on how we post-train models for accurate search-augmented answers. Our SFT + RL pipeline improves search, citation quality, instruction following, and efficiency. With Qwen models, we match or beat GPT models on factuality at a lower cost.
