Image generation vs. dedicated tools

Perplexity's image generation is convenient for quick visuals during research, but it is not a replacement for dedicated tools like Nano Banana 2 or ChatGPT's GPT Image for professional creative work. The advantage is the seamless integration with your search workflow: research a topic and create accompanying visuals without switching apps.

Pro plan required

Image generation is not available on the free tier. You need a Pro subscription ($20/month or $200/year) to create images in Perplexity.
