Perplexity
Search-grounded answers with citations as sources.
let model = PerplexityModel("sonar-pro")Key from PERPLEXITY_API_KEY; base URL https://api.perplexity.ai.
Features
- Every answer is search-grounded; citations surface as
StreamPart.sourceand collect onresult.sources. - Structured output and image input ride the chat-completions wire on models that support them.
- No tool calling — Perplexity's API doesn't offer it, so the library
doesn't pretend otherwise. The
reasoningparameter is ignored the same way.
let result = try await generateText(

Three ids cover the lineup: sonar (fast grounded answers),
sonar-pro (deeper multi-hop search), and sonar-reasoning-pro
(search plus visible reasoning).
