Features
- Real-Time Web Search — pull the latest information from the web in real time, breaking your chatbot out of its training-data limits.
- Two Response Modes — Conversational (flowing natural-sounding prose with no citations) or Structured (numbered source citations with clickable links).
- One-Click Toggle — a Perplexity button in the chat toolbar routes every message through web search. Toggle persists across page loads.
- Intent-Based Triggering — train MxChat to recognize search phrases ("search for...", "research...") and automatically route them through Perplexity without the toggle.
- Four Perplexity models — Sonar Pro (200k context, all-around), Sonar Reasoning, Sonar Reasoning Pro, Sonar Deep Research for thorough multi-step research.
- Smart Timeout Handling — up to 5 minutes for Deep Research; 30 seconds for standard models. Complex queries get the time they need.
- Chain-of-Thought Cleanup — automatically strips internal reasoning steps from Reasoning + Deep Research models so users only see the polished answer.
- Multisite compatible — works with WordPress multisite, checking both network-wide and site-specific license activation.
