How to Humanize AI Text and Avoid Turnitin's AI Detector
Get the key insights from this comprehensive guide in just 3 minutes.
Perplexity Labs represents a revolutionary leap in AI-powered productivity tools, transforming how we approach complex research and content creation tasks. Launched in May 2025, this groundbreaking feature extends beyond traditional AI search capabilities to become your personal AI research team and content creation studio.
Unlike regular Perplexity AI that answers questions and provides research, Perplexity Labs actually creates complete projects for you. Think of it as having an entire team of analysts, designers, and developers working together to turn your ideas into finished products – all in about 10-30 minutes.
This comprehensive guide will show you exactly how to harness the full power of Perplexity Labs, compare it with competitors like ChatGPT and Claude, and provide real-world examples that you can start using today.
This guide is essential for professionals, researchers, and creators who need to transform complex information into actionable projects quickly. You'll find it especially valuable if you are:
Before Labs: The Manual Project (Days/Weeks)
Manually researching data, exporting to Excel for analysis, struggling to build visualizations in another tool, and finally writing a report in a separate document. The process is slow, fragmented, and requires multiple software subscriptions.
After Labs: The Automated Workflow (Minutes)
Write a single, detailed prompt. Perplexity Labs performs the deep research, runs the analysis, codes an interactive dashboard, generates professional charts, and writes the summary report, delivering a complete, multi-format project in under 30 minutes.
Perplexity Labs operates on a sophisticated multi-agent system that combines several powerful AI technologies working in concert. At its foundation, it uses advanced large language models similar to those powering ChatGPT and Claude, but with crucial enhancements for research and creation tasks.
While Perplexity's Deep Research mode focuses on comprehensive analysis and detailed answers, Labs takes it several steps further. Here's how they work together:
Key Difference: Deep Research provides the foundation – gathering comprehensive information from dozens of sources. Labs then transforms this research into actionable, interactive assets with dashboards, visualizations, and downloadable files.

Labs excels at creating sophisticated, interactive dashboards that rival those built by professional data analysts. These aren't static images – they're fully functional web applications with live data integration and responsive filters.
Labs can produce professionally formatted, multi-page reports complete with introductions, methodologies, data-driven charts, insightful conclusions, and fully cited sources, condensing days of work into minutes.
Go beyond basic tables. Labs creates sophisticated spreadsheets with complex formulas, conditional formatting, pivot tables, and interactive elements, ready for download as Excel or CSV files.
Unlike other AI tools that just generate code, Perplexity Labs actually runs the code in a secure environment to ensure it works, producing verifiable results, debugging errors, and delivering functional scripts in Python, JS, and more.
From custom calculators and data converters to interactive maps and simple CRM tools, Labs can build and deploy small, functional web applications based on a single text prompt.
Labs automatically selects the best chart types (bar, line, pie, scatter, etc.) to represent your data, creating a suite of clear, presentation-ready visualizations that effectively communicate key insights.
Provide a topic, and Labs will generate a complete presentation, including a title slide, agenda, content slides with key talking points, data visualizations, and a concluding summary, exportable for PowerPoint or Google Slides.
Labs can perform a comprehensive market analysis by researching industry trends, identifying key players, creating a SWOT analysis for each, and summarizing the competitive landscape in a structured report.
Users can ask Labs to build financial models, such as a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis for a public company or a budget forecast for a startup, delivered as an interactive spreadsheet with all formulas intact.
A single Labs query doesn't produce just one output. It often delivers a complete project package, which can include a web dashboard (HTML/JS), a detailed report (PDF/Markdown), a spreadsheet (CSV/XLSX), and all the underlying code (Python) used to generate the results.
This section originally used a radar chart. Here is the data transformed into a descriptive list:
Scenario: A retail company wants to analyze Q4 sales performance and identify Q1 opportunities.
Sample Prompt: "Create a comprehensive business intelligence dashboard analyzing retail sales performance for Q4 2024, including product category analysis, customer segmentation, regional performance, and recommendations for Q1 strategy."
Labs Output:
Scenario: Graduate student analyzing remote work impact on productivity across industries.
Research Query: "Research and analyze the impact of remote work on productivity across different industries post-2020, including statistical analysis, industry comparisons, and policy recommendations."
Academic Deliverables:
Always verify critical information independently. Avoid using sensitive personal or proprietary business data, as Labs works best with publicly available information. Ensure your usage complies with all industry and data privacy regulations.
Start creating professional dashboards, reports, and applications in minutes.
Try Perplexity LabsPerplexity Labs is an AI-powered productivity tool available exclusively to Perplexity Pro subscribers for $20/month. It creates interactive dashboards, reports, spreadsheets, and web applications through advanced research and analysis, with 50 queries per month included.
While ChatGPT excels at conversational AI and file analysis, Perplexity Labs specializes in research-driven content creation with real-time web access, interactive dashboard generation, and professional report formatting with multiple export options.
Absolutely! Labs is designed for non-technical users. Simply describe what you want in plain English, and Labs handles all the technical implementation, from data gathering to visualization creation. No coding knowledge required.
Labs excels at research-intensive projects requiring data visualization: market analysis, competitive research, financial reporting, academic research, marketing campaigns, and business intelligence dashboards. Complex, multi-component projects show the best ROI.
Labs sources information from reputable websites and databases, providing citations for verification. However, always verify critical information independently, especially for important business decisions. Labs is best used as a starting point for further analysis.
