Perplexity expands its publisher program
Perplexity, the AI-powered search engine, is expanding its revenue-sharing publisher program to include more media brands.
Other new members include Blavity, NewsPicks, Minkabu Infonoid, Gear Patrol, MediaLab, DPReview, World History Encyclopedia, and RTL Germany brands NTV and Stern.
