People want to put their own compute to work on more of their everyday tasks, from analyzing local files to running recurring workflows.

Completing that work on their own hardware gives them more control over sensitive information and credit spend.

To let more people work this way, local AI needs to run on more devices and connect to the tools they already use.

Today we’re expanding Portable Computer to systems powered by AMD Ryzen AI Max Series processors including the Ryzen AI Halo developer platform, giving more people a way to run local AI on their own hardware.

Local inference doesn’t consume Computer credits.

Users can run routine analysis and file processing on their Ryzen AI Max-powered system.

The local model can still escalate to the cloud for more advanced research and reasoning when needed.

The local agent stack comes to AMD Ryzen AI Max as one system AMD support gives users another way to run Perplexity Computer locally.

They can put their own hardware to work on demanding tasks while limiting credit spend.
