05FAQ
Frequently asked questions
See the answers to the questions people ask about how Perplexity works with Zaira.
You choose a task and Zaira uses supported Perplexity actions, including web search with ranked results, to carry it out. Tasks can run on demand; recurring or event-triggered runs depend on the workflow's available capabilities.
No. The Perplexity AI integration from Zaira works with zero code. You paste your Perplexity API key once — Zaira wires up Perplexity's AI search for you, no MCP setup, no config files, nothing to build. After that, you just ask your research question in plain language.
Zaira can run real-time web searches with ranked results, answer follow-up questions with live web context, produce deep research reports backed by citations, and work through complex questions step by step — all from a conversation. It's like giving Zaira an up-to-date, source-citing research brain.
Zaira connects with your Perplexity API key, which you generate from console.perplexity.ai. Tool calls are billed to your key at standard Perplexity API pricing — there's no separate Zaira fee for the connection. Simple lookups cost little; heavy deep-research reports cost more. Start small, see what your research actually costs, and scale from there.
Yes — that's the point. Tell Zaira what to research and when — a daily market brief, a weekly competitor sweep, a monthly deep-dive — and it will run the research and deliver a cited report to your Slack, Google Sheets, email, or Docs automatically, sources included.
Perplexity answers in real time from the live web and returns the source URLs behind every claim, which makes it easy to verify what it says. As with any AI research, review the citations for high-stakes decisions — the sources are there for exactly that reason.
Using Perplexity yourself means opening the app, typing queries, and copying results by hand. Zapier, Make, and n8n automate it, but you build the workflow — triggers, prompts, parsing, and delivery. Zaira is the done-for-you middle ground: paste your key once, ask in plain language, get cited answers and deep research, and set recurring briefs delivered to your Slack, Sheets, email, or Docs — nothing to build or maintain.
