Perplexity's new always-on Teammates can take on multiple roles inside a workspace, pulling existing projects, skills, and memory to compete directly in enterprise agents.
Perplexity is pushing further into enterprise territory with Teammates, always-on AI agents designed to operate within a company's workspace across multiple roles. The agents draw on existing projects, skills, and memory rather than starting from a blank context each session.
The launch puts Perplexity in direct competition with OpenAI and Anthropic's own enterprise agent plays, as all three labs race to own the workplace-automation budget line rather than just the chatbot interface.
Enterprise agents are becoming the real battleground for AI revenue, not consumer chat, and Perplexity's move shows even search-first players see workplace automation as the bigger prize. Buyers should expect pricing and feature wars to intensify as labs differentiate on memory and role persistence rather than raw model quality.
