Whether you’re starting from scratch or already using Perplexity sporadically, our Perplexity agency training gives you the right reflexes to turn AI search into a competitive advantage. You’ll leave with documented workflows, templates, and the confidence to replace hours of manual research with minutes of strategic questioning.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN OUR PERPLEXITY TRAINING
MODULE 1: PERPLEXITY FUNDAMENTALS & INTERFACE MASTERY
Why this module? Most users never go beyond basic searches, missing powerful features hidden in the interface. We start with the foundations: understanding how Perplexity differs from Google and ChatGPT, when to use it, and what makes a good research prompt. You’ll master the interface navigation, search modes (Quick, Pro, Focus), and thread management to keep your research organized. We cover account types (Free vs Pro), citation interpretation, and how to evaluate answer quality. By the end, you’ll know exactly when to reach for Perplexity instead of traditional search engines and how to structure your initial queries for maximum relevance.
MODULE 2: ADVANCED SEARCH TECHNIQUES & FOCUS MODES
This is where Perplexity becomes truly powerful. You’ll learn advanced prompting strategies for research: how to ask follow-up questions, refine scope, request specific formats (tables, lists, comparisons). We deep-dive into Focus Modes: Academic for scholarly research, Writing for content creation, Video for multimedia sources, and Wolfram for computational queries. You’ll practice search operators, date filtering, domain-specific searches, and multi-turn conversations that build on context. Real exercises include: competitive landscape analysis, technical documentation research, trend identification, and customer insight extraction. The goal: make your searches 10x more precise and relevant.
MODULE 3: COLLECTIONS & RESEARCH ORGANIZATION
Research without organization is chaos. This module teaches you to structure knowledge using Perplexity Collections – your personal research libraries. Learn to create topic-based collections, tag and categorize threads, build knowledge bases that grow over time, and establish research workflows for recurring needs (weekly competitive intel, monthly market updates, project-specific research). We cover collaboration features: sharing Collections with teammates, setting permissions, and creating shared research hubs. Practical case: building a complete competitive intelligence Collection with systematic monitoring. You’ll leave with templates for different research scenarios and the ability to turn ad-hoc searches into structured intelligence systems.
MODULE 4: PERPLEXITY PAGES & KNOWLEDGE SHARING
Transform your research into shareable assets. Perplexity Pages let you turn conversations into polished, cited documents that can be shared internally or publicly. You’ll learn page creation workflow, content organization, citation management, and formatting for different audiences. We cover use cases: creating market research reports, competitive briefs, onboarding documents, and thought leadership content. You’ll practice converting messy research threads into clean, professional pages, adding custom sections, embedding media, and setting sharing permissions. This module bridges individual research and team knowledge distribution, ensuring your insights don’t stay locked in chat threads.
MODULE 5: API INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION WORKFLOWS
Take Perplexity beyond the interface. For teams wanting to embed AI research into their systems, we teach Perplexity API integration. Learn authentication, query structure, response parsing, and rate limit management. We build practical automations using Make and n8n: scheduled competitive monitoring that posts to Slack, research triggers from Airtable records, automated weekly market digests, and customer question answering fed by your knowledge base. You’ll see how to combine Perplexity with Notion (auto-populate research databases), Airtable (enrich records with AI research), and HubSpot (enhance lead intelligence). Real implementation examples ensure you can deploy these workflows immediately using automation platforms.
MODULE 6: STRATEGIC USE CASES & OPTIMIZATION
The final module is 100% applied: we tackle real business scenarios where Perplexity becomes a game-changer. Cases include: competitive intelligence (monitoring competitors’ announcements, strategy changes, product launches), content research (finding trending topics, expert quotes, statistical data), customer research (understanding pain points, market sentiment, emerging needs), technical documentation (troubleshooting, API research, integration guides), and strategic planning (market sizing, trend analysis, technology evaluation). For each case, you’ll get a documented workflow, prompt templates, and quality criteria. We also cover Pro features optimization, cost management, and when to combine Perplexity with other tools. You leave with a personal playbook tailored to your specific use cases.

FAQ – EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OUR PERPLEXITY TRAINING
What is the price of the Perplexity training?
The Perplexity training is 100% free. We offer it to early adopters who want to master AI-powered research before it becomes mainstream. As an expert agency, we invest in education to build a community of advanced users. First registrants get priority access to live sessions, exclusive templates, and our private Slack community. There's no catch – we simply believe that better-trained professionals create better opportunities for advanced integrations down the road.
How long does the Perplexity training last?
The program runs over 10 weeks with a flexible format: 2-hour intensive modules delivered bi-weekly (6 core sessions), plus 1-hour weekly office hours for Q&A, case studies, and troubleshooting. Total learning time is approximately 18 hours of structured content, plus self-paced practice with provided templates and exercises. You can complete exercises on your schedule between sessions, making it compatible with full-time work.
Is the training live or recorded?
Hybrid format: All sessions are delivered live for maximum interaction, real-time Q&A, and collaborative problem-solving. However, every session is recorded and made available within 24 hours. You get lifetime access to replays, slide decks, templates, and resources. Can't make a live session? Watch the replay and bring questions to the next office hour. We recommend attending live when possible for the collaborative energy and direct feedback.
How do I register for the Perplexity training?
Registration is simple: fill out the online form on this page with your name, email, company, and primary use case for Perplexity. You'll receive an email confirmation within 48 hours with calendar invites, prep materials, and access to our training platform. We accept registrations on a rolling basis but prioritize early sign-ups for the next cohort. No payment required, no credit card asked – just genuine interest in mastering AI-powered research.
Do I need a Perplexity Pro account for the training?
Not required, but highly recommended. Most core features work with the free tier, which is perfect for learning fundamentals. However, Pro unlocks unlimited searches, advanced AI models (GPT-4, Claude), and API access – all covered in the training. We provide guidance on when Pro becomes ROI-positive (usually after 10+ hours of monthly research). Many participants start free and upgrade mid-training as they see the value. We also share Pro account tips and cost optimization strategies.
How is Perplexity different from ChatGPT for research?
Critical distinction: ChatGPT is a language model, Perplexity is a search engine with AI. ChatGPT generates answers from its training data (cutoff date limits, potential hallucinations). Perplexity searches the live web, finds current sources, and cites everything. It's designed for research, not conversation. Use ChatGPT for brainstorming, writing, and reasoning. Use Perplexity for facts, current events, competitive intel, and verified data. In our training, we teach exactly when to use each tool and how to combine them in workflows. Think: ChatGPT for "what if?", Perplexity for "what's true?"
Can Perplexity replace Google for my team's research needs?
Yes for 70% of research tasks, but not everything. Perplexity excels at: questions requiring synthesis ("compare X and Y"), deep research ("latest trends in Z"), and knowledge extraction ("how does A work?"). Google is still better for: navigational queries ("go to website.com"), local search ("restaurants near me"), and specific document finding. In the training, we establish a decision framework: when to use Perplexity, when to use Google, and when to combine both. Most teams end up using Perplexity as their primary research tool and Google for secondary lookups.
What are the main limitations of Perplexity I should know?
Honest answer: Perplexity isn't perfect. Limitations include: occasional hallucinations (citing sources incorrectly), dependence on web quality (garbage in, garbage out), rate limits on free tier, no access to paywalled content, and sometimes verbose answers. The training teaches you to verify citations, cross-check critical facts, use Focus Modes to improve accuracy, and combine Perplexity with other tools for complete coverage. We're transparent about where Perplexity shines and where it struggles – this prevents disappointment and helps you build robust research workflows.
Can I integrate Perplexity into our existing tools like Notion or Airtable?
Absolutely, and that's a core focus of Module 5. Perplexity offers an API that can be connected to any system. We teach integrations with Notion (auto-fill research pages), Airtable (enrich database records), Slack (research bot), and Google Sheets (automated reports). Using tools like Make or n8n, you can build no-code automations: trigger Perplexity searches from form submissions, schedule weekly competitive intel, or answer customer questions automatically. We provide ready-to-use templates and walk through real implementations step-by-step.
Will I be autonomous after the training or need ongoing support?
Our goal is complete autonomy. After 10 weeks, you'll have documented workflows, prompt templates, integration blueprints, and troubleshooting guides for 95% of scenarios. You'll know how to structure research, evaluate answer quality, build Collections, create Pages, and deploy automations independently. That said, we provide lifetime access to training materials and a private community where graduates share tips and solutions. For complex enterprise integrations, our agency offers consulting, but typical business use cases are fully covered. Most participants become internal Perplexity champions, training their own teams using our frameworks.
