AI Research Assistant
Ask a question that needs real evidence. Get sourced findings from a search-native model, checked by a reasoning model, and kept in a Project you can question later.
Latest AI models and studios available from one account
Chat with ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok. Then continue into image, document, presentation, spreadsheet, and file workflows.
Fast explanations, study help, and a second opinion.
Long-context writing, review, and careful reasoning.
Another perspective for research, critique, and coding.
Create images and compare visual directions.
Make docs, slides, spreadsheets, images, and file outputs.
Side-by-side answers and AI collaboration
Compare answers when one model is not enough. Use AI Team when the task needs review and synthesis.
Start with this tool. Continue in MultipleChat.
Start with the tasks people use ChatGPT for every day. Keep the page simple; move into advanced workflows only when the task needs them.
Which workflow should you use?
Start with the simplest mode that solves the job. Move up only when the answer needs judgment, collaboration, or a finished file.
How it works
- Write the decision the research feeds
- Sourced sweep with Perplexity
- Check and interpret with a reasoning model
What opens after login
Create a Project for the topic, upload what you already have, ask Perplexity for the sourced sweep, then ask Claude or ChatGPT to check and interpret it. The Project keeps the evidence.
Paid plans add Sonar Pro, independent verification passes and the latest reasoning models, plus generated documents and spreadsheets from the findings.

Perplexity for the sweep
Current facts with links. Ask for a source on every claim.Claude or ChatGPT for the check
Paste the findings with sources; ask what is unsupported, outdated or contradicted.Gemini for a third reading
When two models disagree about a fact, a third often settles which source is right.Verification pass
For claims you will act on, the independent verification pass on paid plans re-checks factual statements.Use chat, files, and studios from the same account
Chat with files
Upload PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, or images and ask questions about the content.
Image Studio
Create image prompts and continue into the dedicated image generation workflow.
Document Studio
Generate reports, proposals, resumes, and structured drafts.
Presentation Studio
Create decks, outlines, pitch materials, and training presentations.
Excel Studio
Work with spreadsheets, formulas, CSV files, and data analysis tasks.
Projects
Keep chats and files organized around a client, topic, codebase, or research area.

ChatGPT is a strong model. MultipleChat is the workflow around it: model access, side-by-side comparison, AI collaboration, file handling, studios, projects, and verification in one place.
| Capability | ChatGPT alone | Typical AI aggregator | MultipleChat |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal ChatGPT tasks | Strong for writing, code, summaries, learning, translation, and analysis. | Usually depends on the chosen model. | Included Do the same core ChatGPT tasks, then continue into broader workflows. |
| Latest model access | One provider's model family. | Several models, but versions can be unclear. | Current paths ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, web-search models, and image models in one workspace. |
| Side-by-side model comparison | Manual copy-paste into other tools. | Sometimes basic parallel answers. | Core feature One prompt, multiple answers, same context. |
| AI collaboration | One model answers alone. | Mostly model switching. | AI Team Models can draft, critique, debate, verify, and synthesize one final answer. |
| Create files from chat | Generic text output, then manual copy into other apps. | Often one or two output tools. | Studios Documents, presentations, spreadsheets, images, and file-based chat workflows. |
| Projects and context | Mostly chat history. | Usually folders or separate chats. | Workspace Chats, uploads, project instructions, sources, and history together. |
A research session, start to finish
Write the decision the research feeds, in one sentence, at the top of the Project. Upload anything you already have: reports, exports, screenshots of competitor pricing. Ask Perplexity for the sourced sweep. Ask a reasoning model to label every statement as fact, inference or estimate and to check the facts against the sources. Ask a third model to size or interpret. Write the one-page brief with the open questions at the end.
That is an afternoon for a market, a competitor set or a literature review, and the result is something you can defend in a meeting because every number points at a page someone can open.

Start researchingFrequently asked questions
Is this better than Google?
It is faster at synthesis and worse at nothing if you open the sources. Google gives you pages; this gives you a sourced draft answer and a critic. Use both.
Which model is the research assistant?
Several. Perplexity finds and cites; ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini check and interpret. Choosing the right one per step is the point of having them in one place.
Can it research my own documents?
Yes. Upload them to the Project. Ask questions with page and section references so answers are checkable.
How do I avoid invented facts?
Ask for sources, open them, have a second model check, and never repeat a number you have not seen in its source. The assistant makes each step fast; it does not remove them.
Is my research private?
Projects, files and conversations stay in your account and are never used to train any model.
What is free?
Perplexity Sonar, the major model families and a starter upload allowance. Sonar Pro, verification passes and larger uploads are on paid plans.
Does the research assistant cite sources?
Yes, when you use Perplexity or the research modes; every claim comes with a link you can open.
Can it read my own reports?
Yes. Upload PDFs, documents and spreadsheets to the Project and they become part of the research context.
What is MultipleChat?
MultipleChat is an AI workspace where you can chat with leading models, work with files, use dedicated AI studios, compare model answers, and run AI Team workflows from one account.
Which AI models are available?
MultipleChat includes ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok model paths in one workspace, plus dedicated image models inside Image Studio. Exact model availability can vary by plan and provider availability.
