Looking past Perplexity?
Perplexity is the best way to ask the web a question. Beagle answers about your work - your accounts, your threads, your tools - and then does something about it.
Side by side.
Perplexity is an answer engine. A conversational search engine that answers with citations. Here is where the two part ways.
| Perplexity | Beagle | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | A search tab. | Slack and Microsoft Teams, as a teammate. |
| Reads your channels | The public web. | Every channel it is invited to, scoped to what each teammate can see. |
| Takes initiative | On query. | Pipes up unprompted when something needs you. |
| Acts across your tools | Answers with sources. | Drafts and does the work across ~2,700 connected apps. |
| Learns your team | Limited personal memory. | Remembers your tone, your people and what you decided. |
| Asks before acting | Read-only. | Always waits for your nod before anything goes out. |
| Pricing | Per seat for Pro. | Free to start - 1,000 credits, no card. $49/mo adds 5,000 monthly. |
Where Beagle fits.
The shape of work Perplexity was not built for.
Lives where you talk
Beagle is a teammate in Slack and Microsoft Teams, not a tab you switch to. It reads the channels it is invited to and answers in the thread.
Does the work, not just the talk
It drafts the reply, updates the record and chases the action item across ~2,700 tools - then waits for your nod before anything goes out.
Learns your team
Correct it once and it remembers. Over time it knows your tone, your accounts and your decisions - the part Perplexity leaves to you.
