Bharti Airtel, one of India’s leading telecom operators, has announced a special offer providing eligible users with a free one-year subscription to Perplexity Pro. This AI-powered search engine differs from conventional chatbots like ChatGPT and Gemini by delivering answers through real-time internet information gathering.
Perplexity is an AI-based search platform that is driven by the combination of advanced language models, including GPT-4.1 and Claude 4.0 Sonnet. Usually the otherr chatbots generate answers based only on pre-existing data, however, Perplexity searches the live web to provide current and up-to-date information.
With the Perplexity Pro subscription, airtel users can switch between large language models from leading AI developers such as Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic, selecting the model that best suits their needs.
