Perplexity has launched a new feature for Mac computers called “Personal Computer,” which brings AI-powered workflows directly onto users’ devices.

The feature allows AI agents to work with local files, apps, and web tools on a Mac instead of relying only on cloud-based systems.

The company said Personal Computer is designed to help users automate complex and repetitive tasks. It can organise files, manage workflows, compare documents, create reports, and handle multi-step tasks across different applications.

The AI system can also continue working in the background for long periods.
