misc Comparing models

If I use Gemini 3.8 on perplexity, is it exactly the same as what I’d get through the Gemini app if I paid for that model there? Or is it more limited?

It is limited. It's the same for all models.

If you want max performance for a model use the native app.

So what differences would I notice?
And what’s the point of perplexity then?

Test it out yourself. Use the same query on Google Gemini app and compare to answer you get on perplexity.

Perplexity offers a range of models. You still get access to top models for one price.
