Jakarta, INTI – The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology continues to bring innovations that facilitate human activities, including data processing and visualization. AI competitor ChatGPT, Perplexity AI, has officially released their latest feature called Perplexity Labs. This step is Perplexity's effort to expand their services beyond their main function as an AI-based search engine.
Not Just a Search Engine, Now You Can Create Spreadsheets and Visual Dashboards
Perplexity Labs is designed to help users create various types of reports, spreadsheets, and visual dashboards that include graphs, tables, images, and indicators. This tool comes as a practical solution for individuals and professionals who want to organize data in a structured and easy-to-understand manner.
In its official blog, Perplexity explains that Labs can be used in various fields. For example, in the business world, users can create marketing strategies or compile client prospect lists. In the creative field, this feature can be used to create movie concepts complete with storyboards, which are sequences of images that explain the storyline like in comics.
Supporting Education to Sports
In addition to business and creativity, Perplexity Labs also supports education. Users can create research documents about cities such as Vienna, with content customized for children, including historical information, popular tourist attractions, and specialties accompanied by pictures. In sports, users can ask the AI to compare the qualifying results of Formula 1 races in 2024 and 2025 by team, to see changes in performance.
Deeper Analysis Process, More Complete Results
Labs is designed to work with a deeper and more thorough thought process. It takes about 10 minutes or so to analyze a given command. The results can be documents, spreadsheets, graphs, and even web-based mini-applications. AI will help organize data, write code, and apply formulas automatically to make reports appear neat and complete.
All visual assets created will be collected in a special tab called “Assets”. There, users can review, save, or download the images, graphs, and tables they have created.
Complement Deep Search Research Feature
Perplexity provided with a feature called Deep Search, which is designed for in-depth information search. This feature works faster (about 3-4 minutes) and is perfect for answering complex questions. However, if advanced analysis with reports and visualizations is needed, then Perplexity Labs is a more appropriate choice. These features are designed to support your daily tasks, making both work and life more efficient.
Conclusion
Perplexity Labs is a strategic move by Perplexity AI to expand their capabilities in supporting digital productivity. With the ability to compile reports, spreadsheets, and data visualizations, this feature addresses the needs of cross-sectors ranging from business, education, creative, to sports. It is a practical solution that accelerates the process of analyzing and presenting information in a more economical and efficient way.
