Never use Google Search again.

Perplexity, as a search engine or question-answering platform, offers some distinct features that may provide advantages over Google Search in certain scenarios. Here are some positive features of Perplexity compared to Google. As some of you know, I previously wrote a similar blog post regarding this topic - Read it here

1. Quick, Clear Answers: Perplexity gives direct answers to your questions without making you go through a bunch of links. It summarizes the most important information for you right away.

2. Shows Where Information Comes From: Perplexity always tells you the sources of the information it uses, so you can easily check if the answer is trustworthy. This makes it more reliable for finding facts.

3. Less Clutter: When you search on Google, you often see ads and other types of results (like images and videos). Perplexity focuses on giving just the facts without extra distractions.

4. Understands Complex Questions: Perplexity is designed to handle questions that are asked in everyday language. This makes it easier to get answers for more complicated or detailed questions.

5. Summarizes Information: Google gives you a list of websites to check, but Perplexity summarizes the information from several sources into one clear answer. This saves you time.

6. No Ads or Biased Results: Who hates ads and having to scroll through them all in Google Search? Perplexity doesn’t show ads or favor websites that are optimized to rank higher, like Google does. This means the answers are less likely to be influenced by companies paying to be at the top.

7. Balanced Information: Perplexity pulls information from many sourcest gives you a more balanced answer instead of relying too much on one website.

These features make Perplexity better for quickly finding accurate and well-sourced answers, especially when you don’t want to waste time searching through links or ads.These features can make Perplexity more effective for users seeking quick, factual answers with sources, especially in research contexts where transparency and precision are valued.

I personally use both. I have to remember to to use perplexity for certain searches. It's been a little tough to switch from google search but it's well worth it!
