API Overview

Sonar Deep Research is a specialized model for in-depth research launched by Perplexity AI. Its core positioning is as a “fully automated, multi-source, expert-level report-generation engine” designed to provide systematic, traceable, and structured analysis for complex topics.

  • End-to-end autonomous research: Automatically plans search strategies, conducts multi-round web searches, cross-validates information, identifies inconsistencies, and integrates findings into a coherent report.
  • Long-form structured output: Generates professional-grade reports spanning thousands of words, including abstracts, chapter-by-chapter discussions, key findings, data comparisons, and reference lists.
  • Multi-source authoritative citations: Each claim is accompanied by source URLs and excerpts from original texts, allowing one-click access for verification and ensuring content credibility and auditability.
  • Dynamic iterative capability: Based on user feedback (e.g., “Deepen the analysis of the cost section”), the model can automatically focus on subtopics and conduct incremental, in-depth exploration.
  • Enterprise-grade security and compliance: The model is not trained on customer data and supports private deployment options, meeting the stringent requirements of high-sensitivity scenarios such as finance, consulting, and research.
