Perplexity Enterprise Pro: Complete Guide for Teams (Features & Pricing 2025)

Your team spends hours searching for information.

By the end, nobody's sure if they found the right answer.

That's exactly the problem Perplexity Enterprise Pro solves.

It's Perplexity AI built specifically for teams and businesses, with enterprise-grade security, team collaboration, and the ability to search both the internet and your company's internal files in seconds.

What Is Perplexity Enterprise Pro?

Perplexity Enterprise Pro is the business version of Perplexity AI.

If you've used regular Perplexity, you know it's an AI-powered answer engine that searches the web and gives you direct answers with sources.

Enterprise Pro takes that and adds:

• Team collaboration features
• Internal file search (search your company's documents)
• Enterprise-level security and compliance
• Admin controls for managing team members
• Priority support
• Enhanced privacy protections

Launched: April 2024
Price: $40/month per user
Team Size: Up to 250 members
Who Uses It: Stripe, Zoom, Databricks, Snowflake, Cleveland Cavaliers, HP, Vercel, Replit, and more

Think of it as Perplexity supercharged for business use.

Why Teams Actually Need This

Here's the reality of work today: information is everywhere but finding the right information wastes massive amounts of time.

The typical workflow without Perplexity:

1. Someone asks a question in Slack
2. Three people start searching separately
3. Everyone checks Google, internal docs, past emails
4. Takes 20-30 minutes per person
5. Results are inconsistent
6. No one's sure if they found everything

With Perplexity Enterprise Pro:

1. Ask the question once
2. Get an answer with sources in 30 seconds
3. Everyone sees the same accurate information
4. Move on to actual work

That's not hype. Companies using Enterprise Pro report significant time savings on research tasks.

Key Features That Actually Matter

1. Internal Knowledge Search

This is the game-changer.

Your team can upload company documents, and Perplexity searches both those files AND the web simultaneously.

What you can upload:

• PDFs
• Word documents
• PowerPoint presentations
• Excel spreadsheets
• Internal reports
• Policy documents
• Research papers
• Meeting notes

How it works:

Your marketing team uploads last quarter's reports. When someone asks

"What were our top-performing campaigns in Q3?",

Perplexity searches your uploaded files and gives a precise answer with citations from your actual documents.

No more hunting through folders.

No more "Does anyone remember where that file is?" Just ask and get answers.

2. Spaces for Team Collaboration

Spaces are shared workspaces where teams organize research by project or topic.

Create Spaces for:

• Specific projects
• Departments
• Client work
• Research topics
• Product development

What happens in a Space:

• Upload relevant files
• Share research threads
• Set custom AI instructions
• Everyone on the team can access
• All conversations stay organized

Example: Your product team creates a "New Feature Research" Space.

Upload competitor analyses, user feedback, and technical docs.

The entire team can ask questions and get answers based on all that shared context.

3. Enterprise-Grade Security

Security isn't optional for businesses. Enterprise Pro takes it seriously.

Security Features:

SOC2 Compliance

• Industry gold standard for security
• Third-party audited
• Meets strict data protection requirements

Data Privacy

• Your data never trains AI models (this is huge)
• Queries deleted after 7 days
• End-to-end encryption
• Data stays in your control

Access Controls

• Single Sign-On (SSO) integration
• Role-based permissions
• User management dashboard
• File upload alerts

GDPR and HIPAA Compliant

This means you can trust Perplexity with sensitive company information.

4. Advanced AI Models

Enterprise Pro gives your team access to the best AI models available:

• GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo (OpenAI)
• Claude 3 Opus and Claude 3 Sonnet (Anthropic)
• Sonar Large (Perplexity's own model)

Why this matters: Different AI models have different strengths. Your team can choose the best model for each task.

Tips for Maximum Value

Here's how to get the most from Enterprise Pro:

1. Upload High-Value Documents First

Start with your most-referenced documents:

• Company policies
• Product documentation
• Research reports
• Client data (where appropriate)
• Training materials

2. Create Targeted Spaces

Don't put everything in one Space. Create specific Spaces for:

• Each major project
• Each department
• Each client (for agencies)
• Specific research topics

3. Set Custom Instructions

In each Space, set instructions like:

• "Always cite internal documents first"
• "Focus on data from the last 6 months"
• "Prioritize peer-reviewed sources"
• "Explain technical terms simply"

4. Encourage Team Adoption

Make it easy:

• Set Perplexity as the team's default research tool
• Share success stories within the team
• Celebrate time saved
• Make it part of onboarding

5. Monitor Usage

Check the admin dashboard to:

• See which features get used most
• Identify power users who can help others
• Find common questions (add those docs to Spaces)
• Track ROI

Is Enterprise Pro Worth It?

Here's my honest take after researching how teams actually use it:

It's worth it if:

• Your team does significant research regularly
• Time wasted searching costs more than $40/person/month
• You need to search internal documents frequently
• Security and compliance are requirements
• You have 5+ team members who need it

Skip it if:

• You're a solo user (get Pro instead)
• Your team rarely does research
• You don't have internal documents to search
• Budget is extremely tight

The math: If Enterprise Pro saves each team member just 2 hours per month, and their time is worth $50/hour, you're getting $100 in value for $40 spent.

That's a good return.

The Bottom Line

Perplexity Enterprise Pro isn't just "Perplexity for businesses."

It's a complete research and knowledge management system that:

• Cuts research time dramatically
• Makes internal knowledge accessible
• Keeps everything secure
• Helps teams collaborate better
• Scales from small teams to 250+ members

Big companies like Stripe, Zoom, and Databricks use it daily. That tells you something about its value.

Is it perfect? No tool is. There's a learning curve, it costs real money, and it requires good change management to get team adoption.

But does it solve a real problem? Absolutely. If your team wastes hours every week searching for information, Enterprise Pro pays for itself quickly.
