Perplexity brings AI deep research inside Microsoft 365
Perplexity's Computer feature now works directly inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams, letting research turn into reports and spreadsheets without switching tools.
What changed
Perplexity announced that its Deep Research feature is now available inside Computer, and that Computer itself now works directly inside Microsoft 365 apps — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams.
From finding to finished product
In practice, this lets a user start with a complex research question and, without leaving the same environment, turn the result into a report, spreadsheet, presentation, dashboard, or follow-up workflow.
Why it matters for Microsoft 365 users
Since Microsoft 365 is used by hundreds of millions of people at companies of every size, embedding research AI directly into those apps lowers the friction of adoption — no separate new tool required, just an integration inside what teams already use daily.
