Summary

This agreement governs how enterprise customers can use Perplexity AI's services. Perplexity AI will not use your content to train its AI models, and you own both what you submit and the outputs you receive. If something goes wrong, what you can recover from Perplexity AI is limited to what you paid in the prior 12 months, and your payments are generally nonrefundable.

Analysis

These Enterprise Terms establish the commercial and operational relationship between Perplexity AI and its enterprise customers. Customer Content is expressly excluded from use in training, retraining, or fine-tuning any generative AI models by Perplexity AI or authorized third parties, and customers retain ownership of inputs while receiving full assigned ownership of outputs. Liability is capped at fees paid in the preceding 12 months, indirect and consequential damages are mutually excluded, and all warranties are disclaimed. Customers bear indemnification obligations for third-party claims arising from their own conduct, content, or misconduct, while Perplexity AI indemnifies customers against third-party intellectual property infringement claims directed at the Services or Outputs. All payments are nonrefundable except where expressly stated otherwise, and use of the Services to handle Protected Health Information requires a separately executed Business Associate Agreement.

What this means for you

Enterprise customers retain ownership of their input content and receive full ownership of all outputs generated by the Services. Perplexity AI will not use Customer Content to train or improve any generative AI models. Customers are responsible for verifying the accuracy of all outputs and must not rely on them for advice of any kind. If the customer's use involves Protected Health Information, a Business Associate Agreement must be executed with Perplexity AI before that use begins. Customers are liable to indemnify Perplexity AI for third-party claims arising from their own content, agreement violations, or gross negligence or willful misconduct, while Perplexity AI bears the indemnification obligation for third-party intellectual property infringement claims against the Services or Outputs.
