Airtel has announced a special offer for its 36 crore customers, including mobile, broadband, and DTH users.
The company is giving free access to the Perplexity Pro subscription plan for one full year.
This AI-powered tool normally costs ₹17,000 annually, but Airtel users can now get it for free through the Airtel Thanks app.
This offer is a result of Airtel’s partnership with Perplexity, an AI-based search and answer platform.
Unlike traditional search engines, Perplexity provides direct and accurate answers instead of just showing links.
It also supports follow-up questions, making web searches more interactive and useful.
While the basic version is free for everyone, the Pro version includes premium features designed for professionals, researchers, and power users.
What’s Included in Perplexity Pro?
With the Perplexity Pro subscription, Airtel users will get:
Unlimited Pro searches daily
Access to advanced AI models like GPT-4.1 and Claude
The ability to upload files for analysis
Image generation tools
Entry to Perplexity Labs to experiment and build with AI
This is the first time Perplexity has partnered with a telecom company in India. Previously, it has collaborated with global companies like SoftBank
and T-Mobile. This initiative aims to bring powerful AI tools to millions of users across India.
