Perplexity is what Google Search would be if Google still cared about answers instead of ads. The interface is clean - ask a question, get a cited answer with sources. The follow-up question flow creates genuine research sessions. The Pro search with multiple model options is well-designed. Citation inline linking builds trust in a way that ChatGPT's responses don't. The only tension is between the free experience and the aggressive Pro tier upselling.
What earns the score
- +Answer quality with inline citations builds trust
- +Follow-up question flow enables genuine research
- +Clean interface focuses on answers, not chrome
- +Multi-model selection gives users control
What holds it back
- –Pro tier upselling can be aggressive
- –Source quality varies and isn't always transparent
- –Mobile app is less polished than web
- –Rate limits on free tier create friction at the wrong moment
