Perplexity
Perplexity’s Sonar Pro supports deeper search and a 200K-token context. Explore its reference pricing and Agent API transition.
At a glance
API model ID: sonar-pro
Capabilities & boundaries
Tool support requires the appropriate API integration; a supported tool is not automatically active in every chat.
The base Sonar Pro model is documented as non-reasoning. Pro Search is a separate enhanced search mode; it is not the same thing as Sonar Reasoning Pro. Verify mode and integration support before relying on it.
Put it to work
Original examples from EZ Ai Assist. Adapt these to your task and the features available in your workspace.
Workflow 01
Make a source-backed comparison without relying on promotional summaries.
Compare the three vendors below using only current official documentation. Build a table of supported deployment options, integration methods, published limits, and pricing-page links. Cite every populated cell. Use not published when a detail is missing and include an as-of date for the comparison.
Workflow 02
Keep version-specific changes separate from general positioning.
Research the latest stable release of this developer tool. Reconcile its release notes, migration guide, and official issue tracker into a brief covering breaking changes, upgrade steps, and unresolved caveats. Cite each claim and flag conflicts between sources instead of silently resolving them.
Workflow 03
Use multiple sources with a clear editorial boundary.
Create a reading brief on the topic below using five credible sources, prioritizing primary documentation. For each source explain the question it answers, publication date, and one limitation. Finish with a short synthesis distinguishing established facts from open questions. Do not treat repeated claims as independent corroboration.

Common questions
Compare Sonar Pro for broader searches, follow-up questions, and source synthesis that needs more context than standard Sonar. Its documented base model is non-reasoning; Perplexity’s separate Pro Search behavior and migration path should not be confused with that base model.
Perplexity says Sonar Chat Completions support ended September 27, 2026. Synchronous and streaming calls continue through a gradual translation to Agent API requests; async Sonar calls are no longer supported. This does not establish whether EZ Ai Assist or a reseller exposes a particular model.
Perplexity maps Sonar Pro to fast. Treat this as migration guidance, not an identical model or a guaranteed equivalent response. Recheck citations, quality, latency, and usage on representative tasks.
No. The published Sonar table adds request fees based on search-context size. The low, medium, and high rows are per 1,000 requests, not per million tokens.
The base model card describes Sonar Pro as non-reasoning. Pro Search is a separate mode, and Sonar Reasoning Pro is another model. A multi-step question does not make these names interchangeable.
The model card lists a 200K-token context. It does not establish a maximum output limit or training cutoff in the reviewed documentation. Integration limits may be lower, and search-backed answers still need checking.
No. The reference table describes Perplexity’s documented API billing. EZ Ai Assist plans are separate, and app availability must be checked in the workspace. These prompts are original starting points, not verified benchmark outputs.
