Perplexity Labs, the disruptive arm of AI search engine, Perplexity, today announced the launch of the platform that will enable non-technical users to build powerful, interactive live dashboards without writing a single line of code.
This new tool seeks to democratise data visualisation, simplifying the presentation of complex material and making it available to an extended audience, from researchers to academics to business people to the general user.
Perplexity Labs uses the potential of generative AI to do away with the monotonous and technical nature of data analysis and presentation.
Users can just enter figures or request the types of visualizations they want and the application automatically produces the tables, charts, graphs, and dynamic dashboards.
This removes the complexity and requirement for specialized data science capability that would previously have been necessary, greatly accelerating the time to insight from local and remote data.
Perplexity says the Labs can do in minutes something than can take days or manually labor and complex research and orchestration of multiple highly specialized skills are involved.
With its beautiful and simple interface, users can modify how the dashboards look so it’s relevant to their specific needs and presentation.
What is more, the live data integration keeps dashboards live and interest active, ensuring that users are free to access the latest information they need to make decisions.
“Perplexing feels like having an answering machine on call 24/7. Working with Labs is like working with a team. For its part, a Perplexity Lab is aworkspace for anyone who wishes to transform an entire idea into reality,” the company wrote in a recent blog post.
Its applications are varied, including business finance analysis, marketing trend tracking, research visualisation, basic web application creation, and more – all without having to write a single line of code.
Perplexity Labs is also the first step towards putting data-driven insights into the hands of all users and not just the people who already understand how to access and analyze data.
Perplexity Labs is available now for Perplexity Pro subscribers on the web, Android, and iOS platforms, with native apps for Mac and Windows coming soon. By making complex data clear, Perplexity Labs is reimagining the way people and organizations engage with and leverage information.
