Perplexity: Sonar Deep Research Reasoning Model Limitations

• Due to the research complexity, completing a task can even take several minutes

This new model is fully specialized in searching and processing numerous internet sources to answer research questions. Ideal for large investigations on the web.

✅ Pros:

• It gives a well-structured response, with introduction, research results divided by sections and a conclusion (even similar to a mini-paper).
• It usually uses between 10 and 20 sources for answering each question.
• It also has reasoning capabilities, which allow better analysis of the sources.

❌ Cons:

• This model usually conducts a deep research task by default even if it is a simple question or a task that doesn’t require browsing, so we don’t recommend using it for non-research or browsing tasks.
