Ask HN: Perplexity Pro vs. Claude – what are you paying for?
4 points by daytonflyers 40 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments
Can't make up my mind as my work is mainly git repo code review, blogging and research and my wife is a teacher so leaning towards perplexity pro but need suggestions on what others are using


With all major llms looking up the web and combining results with its enormous perceived-thru-training knowledge, as well as AI-assisted results in ggl I’m not sure there’s any use case left for perplexity.

I also remember there were big product doubts originally as it was stepping into the field dominated by hugely powerful players.


I don’t think I’d even have perplexity on this list.

Claude or OpenAI.

I’m not sure what the value of perplexity is these days.


I guess most coding/design people use claude but perplexity is good for research.
