About Perplexity

Perplexity was launched in August 2022 by a team of startup technologists, coming from OpenAI, Meta, Quora, and Databrick. Similar to ChatGPT, Perplexity is a chatbot that uses machine learning and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to respond to user questions. Read more about the product.

They recently raised a Series A round of funding led by New Enterprise Associates (NEA) with participation from Databricks Ventures and amazing individual investors like former GitHub CEO, Nat Friedman, Color Health Founder, Elad Gil, Google AI SVP, Jeff Dean and Former President of Microsoft, Bob Muglia.

From the very beginning, this team has developed a culture of mentorship. More senior team members share foundational experience and knowledge with junior engineers.
