What changed

Perplexity has launched hybrid compute for its Mac app, combining cloud-based search, planning, and reasoning with a smaller model running on the user’s Mac. A built-in privacy check decides whether sensitive steps stay local, are masked, blocked, or shared with permission; Perplexity has also released the privacy classifier’s code openly.

What this means for you

The feature is available now to Pro, Max, and Enterprise customers using Apple silicon Macs with at least 24GB of unified memory. It can keep some sensitive work on the device, but access is limited to supported Macs and paid plans.
