    Hello Ben! Perplexity is more like the traditional AI chatbots like OpenAI and anthorpic. In perplexity, you are likely looking for tasks like finding general publicly available information and getting the citation links. However, Claygent is specialized for web scraping and is able to better go through multiple different sources looking for the desired prompt on the website pages. For example, if you wanted some historical fact or the link to a regulation, you might ask Perplexity. If you wanted information about a company, starting with the company website as input, you are better off using Claygent. Also, I would say if you have a website with information and you want to directly extract from that website (for example structured data, emails or phone numbers), you are better off using Claygent.
