Perplexity· 25 AugA local-only version of Perplexity Computer for on-device AI workflows.
Perplexity launched Portable Computer, a version of its AI agent that runs entirely on a local machine, built with NVIDIA for the NVIDIA DGX Spark.
It uses local models (Qwen 3.8 27B or PPLX 27B) and can escalate tasks to the cloud with user permission.
Private data stays on-device, and local work does not consume credits.
