Perplexity integration
Web research for agents — on demand, not on autopilot.
Clawvisor gates Perplexity API access so AI agents can run web searches and retrieve cited answers within a declared research scope. Agents can't make open-ended queries outside the task, and every search is logged for auditability.
Capabilities
What your agent can do in Perplexity.
Each of these is a scope you grant per task. The agent gets them for the work you approved and nothing else.
- Run targeted web searches within an approved topic scope
- Retrieve cited, up-to-date answers from the web
- Search for recent news on specific subjects
- Fact-check claims against live web sources
- Generate research summaries with source attribution
Use cases
What this looks like in practice.
Competitive intelligence monitor
An agent queries Perplexity daily for competitor news, extracts key findings, and appends them to a competitive intel doc — scoped to approved company names as search topics.
Due diligence researcher
Your agent researches a company before a sales call, pulling recent news, funding history, and key personnel — each search is logged and the report lands in your Drive.
Content fact-checker
Before publishing, an agent fact-checks claims in a draft doc by querying Perplexity for each assertion and flagging unverified statements — read-only, no external writes.
The same guarantees, on every Perplexity call.
