Perplexity Portable Computer

A version of Perplexity Computer that runs the whole agent on your own machine, starting with NVIDIA's DGX Spark desktop.

The orchestrator, planner, tool router, scheduler, task queue, and search index all run on the device, not just the model
Runs Qwen 3.8 27B or PPLX 27B, a Perplexity post-trained version of that model. NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning is coming to the model picker
Work done on the device costs no credits, and the model is post-trained to finish as much of each task locally as it can
The local orchestrator can escalate a single step to the cloud for current information, browser use, connected apps, or one of 15 or more frontier models, and asks permission before anything leaves the device
Connects to Google Drive, Gmail, Slack, and GitHub. Dictation runs locally on NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 speech model, so audio never reaches the cloud
Available to Pro and Max subscribers on the NVIDIA DGX Spark, Linux first with Windows coming. NVIDIA RTX GPU PCs follow. One-click install from Perplexity
