Get three errands researched at once just by talking
One spoken request starts three separate research jobs that run side by side while you make coffee.
Published . Steps as of November 2026.
Can I run several AI research tasks at once by voice?
Yes. In Perplexity's voice mode you can start several tasks in one session, check on each one and create projects, all by talking. As of November 2026, the new voice mode is on the web and the Mac app for Pro and Max subscribers. It fits busy people who'd rather say three errands out loud than open three chats. If you only need one answer, a normal typed question is quicker.

This AI can't be filled in from a link, so the button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
I'd like to run three jobs at the same time, each as its own task. Job one: find the best [THING TO BUY, e.g. quiet dishwasher under $900] and give me a top three with the real total price. Job two: plan [WEEKEND PLAN, e.g. a rainy Saturday with two kids] near [YOUR AREA, e.g. our town] with times and costs. Job three: start a project called [PROJECT NAME, e.g. Kitchen refresh] and save a list of what I'll need to decide first. Tell me when each job finishes. When I ask where we are, give me one short line per job.
Start Perplexity's voice mode and hand it three separate jobs in one breath. Each one runs as its own task, and you can ask how they're going without opening a single tab.
