Perplexity has launched a new price alerts feature for Perplexity Finance for Pro and Max subscribers on desktop and mobile web. When an alert triggers, users don’t just get notified about a price change, but they also receive an AI-powered explanation of why the movement happened, powered by Perplexity’s search technology.

According to the company, the alerts will be available on mobile apps in the coming days and will also be extended to free users.
However, this is not the first time AI has been integrated into financial research tools. While Perplexity is focusing on delivering context-rich alerts, Google is also testing a redesigned version of Google Finance that puts AI at the center of the experience. However, that’s only available for select users in the U.S.
The Google update allows people to ask detailed finance-related questions and get AI-generated responses. Instead of manually searching for stock tickers or market updates, users will receive AI-driven analysis, insights, and relevant source links. Google says the redesign is aimed at making financial research faster and more comprehensive.
With Perplexity’s stock alerts entering India and Google reshaping its finance platform with AI, both companies are signalling a future where financial decisions are increasingly guided by real-time, AI-driven insights rather than static data alone.
