A Space is a bookmarked, collaborative research context. Your sources, your prompts, your team — all persistent.
22 min · Reviewed 2026
If Perplexity Search is 'ask the web,' a Space is 'study in the library together, with AI.' You create a Space around a topic. Upload PDFs, bookmark URLs, paste notes. Invite friends. Everyone's questions and the AI's answers accumulate into a shared research artifact.
When Spaces shine
Group school projects — everyone contributes sources; the AI synthesizes.
Multi-week research where each conversation builds on the last.
Onboarding someone into a topic — they get the AI + the accumulated Q&A.
Tracking a fast-moving topic (like AI itself) over months.
