Perplexity Computer for Email

You can start a Computer task by emailing it, forwarding a message to it, or adding it to a thread you are already on.

Details

  • Forward a message to computer@perplexity.com and tell it what to do with it
  • Add the same address to an existing thread and it uses the whole conversation as context
  • Send from the address tied to your Perplexity account for the task to run
  • Each email task becomes a normal Computer session you can open on web or mobile
  • Email tasks keep the same audit trail as any task started in the app

Best for

Kicking off work without leaving your inbox or opening the app

When to use it

The task already lives in an email thread and re-explaining it would take longer than forwarding it

Who benefits

People who work out of their inbox and want the thread itself to be the brief
