What it does

Key features
- Switch between Claude, GPT, Gemini and other models available in Perplexity
- Improved code blocks with syntax highlighting, wrapping and toolbars
- Export or copy conversations as markdown with configurable citations
- Themes, fonts, dark mode and custom CSS for the Perplexity interface
- Open Threads and Spaces without leaving the current page
Use cases
- Saving Perplexity research as markdown notes with sources
- Reading code answers more easily
- Changing models quickly while comparing answers
Getting started
After installing, open Perplexity in Chrome and the extra controls appear in the interface; you can turn individual plugins and themes on or off in the extension settings.
Good to know
It only works on Perplexity and is an unofficial add-on, so changes to Perplexity's site can break features. Model choices depend on what your Perplexity account offers.
