Migrate from Perplexity to Multi Chats Multi Chats

Transfer your memories and preferences from Perplexity to Multi Chats in minutes. Keep your personalized AI experience while gaining access to GPT-5, Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Grok 4.1, and more. All from one interface.

Why Migrate from Perplexity?

  • Fundamentally a search tool, not a general AI assistant, weak at creative writing, code generation, and content creation
  • Citation mismatch: citations sometimes contextually inaccurate or linking to aggregators rather than primary sources
  • Limited code execution (Perplexity Computer for agents, but not standard chat)
  • Poor conversational continuity: longer conversations feel fragmented
  • Oversimplifies complex topics and repeats facts instead of connecting insights

Recommended Export Prompt

I'm switching to a new service and need to save all my preferences and context you've learned about me. Output everything in a single code block with these section headers: ## Response Instructions ## Personal Details ## Projects & Goals ## Tools & Tech ## Corrections & Preferences ## Other Context Use one line per entry in this format: Title - detail Example: Search depth - prefers detailed, multi-source answers Research focus - frequently researches AI model benchmarks Include search preferences, formatting preferences, favorite sources, and any other context. Use my original wording — don't paraphrase, merge, or skip any entries. After the code block, confirm whether this is the complete list or if more remain.

Paste this into Perplexity to get a formatted list of all stored memories and preferences.
