Perplexity APIs deliver powerful AI to the world’s largest Android device maker

Perplexity has been deeply integrated into Samsung Galaxy S26 phones, serving as the primary search and reasoning system for its own assistant and for Bixby, while gaining unprecedented operating-system-level access to Samsung’s native apps, physical controls, and dedicated “Hey Perplexity” wake word. Preloaded on all S26 devices, the assistant can provide sourced web answers, save information to Notes, create reminders and calendar events, and maintain contextual searches within Samsung apps. Bixby uses Perplexity APIs to combine real-time web search with language-model reasoning, and Samsung plans to extend these APIs into Samsung Browser, including agentic browsing capabilities and an optional Perplexity search default. The arrangement supports Samsung’s multi-agent strategy, which reflects reported user reliance on several AI tools for different tasks, and is expected to place Perplexity across hundreds of millions of devices through assistants, browser agents, and search features.
