We’re excited to announce a strategic collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring Perplexity Enterprise Pro to their broad customer base. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our mission to empower organizations with AI-powered research tools that enhance efficiency and productivity without compromising security and control.

Perplexity uses Amazon Bedrock to support its generative AI capabilities, which the company announced at the end of last year. This collaboration opens up new avenues for businesses to harness the power of AI-driven search and analytics, transforming how teams access and utilize information. Through this new agreement with AWS, Perplexity will collaborate on joint events, co-sell engagements, and co-marketing.

When life gets busy, we can all use more efficiency. With Uber One, Uber’s membership program, millions of people get access to benefits and savings. Starting today, eligible Uber One members will have access to another perk that will help save even more time with information gathering and research.

From now through October 31, eligible Uber One members in the US and Canada can redeem a complimentary year of Perplexity Pro – a $200 value. With unlimited use of Perplexity’s “answer engine,” members can get conversational responses to questions and everyday search queries.

With Perplexity, you can exercise your curiosity and learn more about any topic in an engaging format, such as “Who invented the hamburger?” “What is the largest fast food franchise in Canada?” and “Why am I suddenly seeing probiotic sodas everywhere?”

With Perplexity Pro, Uber One members can also benefit from other features, such as:

Pro Search: Perplexity’s advanced search feature, with the ability to break down queries into smaller steps, allowing for more comprehensive and accurate searches

AI model flexibility: Switch between different advanced AI models, including Anthropic’s Claude 3 Opus and Claude 3.5 Sonnet, OpenAI’s GPT-4o, and Perplexity’s Sonar model (built on Meta’s LlaMa 3.1 405B)

File analysis: Upload PDFs, CSVs, and images for instant insights

Image generation: Access to AI image generation models Playground v2.5, DALL-E 3, and Stable Diffusion XL

“At Uber, we’re focused on making life a bit more effortless, which is why we built Uber One as the ultimate way to save across rides and delivery. Now, we’re thrilled that Perplexity is offering members added efficiency with free access to Perplexity Pro,” says Sarfraz Maredia, Vice President and Head of Americas at Uber Eats. “Millions of people have been trying out AI tools and apps, and we know that Perplexity’s powerful search, AI modeling, and image generation will help members get the answers quickly and easily.”
Eligible Uber One members can sign up on the Perplexity website using the unique code in their email inbox to access this limited-time offer.
