Map your plan tier on ClaudeConfirm in ClaudeConfirmed in Claude
Pick the Claude plan that matches your current Perplexity tier. For individuals the price points line up cleanly: Perplexity Free → Claude Free; Perplexity Pro ($20/mo) → Claude Pro ($20/mo); Perplexity Max ($200/mo) → Claude Max 20x ($200/mo). Note that web search and Research mode are gated behind paid tiers, so if cited research is your daily driver, choose at least Claude Pro. Sign up or upgrade at claude.ai before configuring anything else.
Plans and pricing
Turn on web search (your must-keep: cited web answers)Confirm in ClaudeConfirmed in Claude
This is the biggest behavioral difference. In Perplexity every query is a grounded web search by default; in Claude web search is an opt-in tool. Go to Claude Settings > Capabilities > Web search and enable it. Then, in each chat where you want current cited answers, click the "+" button in the prompt bar and toggle on Web search. Expect to lose Perplexity's source-type focus filters (web/academic/social/finance/video) — there is no equivalent filter, so specify source type in your prompt instead (see translated prompts below).

From Perplexity

[Perplexity default: type a question, get a grounded answer with inline sources]

Into Claude

Search the web and answer the question below. Requirements:
- Use Web search (I have it enabled) and ground every claim in current sources.
- Add inline citations after each claim and list the source URLs at the end.
- Be concise and analytical: lead with the bottom-line conclusion, then the supporting evidence in 3–5 bullets.
- If you cannot verify a claim from a source, say so explicitly rather than guessing.
- Prefer [specify source type here: e.g. peer-reviewed/academic, primary/official, reputable news]. Note: Claude has no source-type filter, so I am specifying it in-prompt.

Same-day walkthrough

## Perplexity → Claude: Same-Day Migration Walkthrough You can get the essentials running in about an hour. Work top to bottom — each block builds on the last. ### Phase 1 — Foundation (~10 min) 1. **Map your plan tier on Claude** so the features below are actually available to you. node:claude/styles 2. **Turn on web search** — this protects your must-keep cited web answers before you do anything else. node:claude/web-search > Reminder: confirm web search is toggled on in Settings before testing prompts, or your "cited answer" prompt will fall back to model knowledge. (verify in the UI) ### Phase 2 — Make Claude sound like your Perplexity (~10 min) 3. **Port your persistent preferences into Claude's profile** using the *Persistent preferences → Claude Profile text* translation. This sets your default tone/format once, globally. pattern:claude__perplexity/persistent-user-preferences > Reminder: Profile text is global, not per-Project. Keep it short — Project instructions (Phase 3) handle the specifics. ### Phase 3 — Rebuild your Spaces (~20 min) 4. **Recreate each Space as a Claude Project**, dropping in the *Research Space → Claude Project (custom instructions)* translation per Project. This preserves your grouped research. node:claude/projects 5. **Migrate your reference files and PDFs** into each Project's knowledge so answers stay grounded. node:claude/projects > Reminder: Upload files Project-by-Project so each Space's context lands in the right place. Large PDF sets may need to be trimmed to fit Project knowledge limits — check as you go. (verify in the UI) ### Phase 4 — Wire in your daily prompts (~10 min) 6. Paste in the **Cited web answer (concise, analytical)** prompt — your everyday replacement for a Perplexity query. pattern:claude__perplexity/cited-web-answer 7. Paste in the **PDF grounded Q&A (concise, analytical)** prompt inside the relevant Project, so it draws on the files you just uploaded. node:claude/projects ### Phase 5 — Collaboration & deep work (~10 min) 8. **Re-establish shared thread links on Claude** so teammates can pick up where Perplexity threads left off. node:claude/projects 9. **Set up Research mode** for deep, multi-source reports — the closest match to Perplexity's heavier research runs. node:claude/research > Gotcha: Citation behavior differs between Perplexity and Claude — Claude cites when web search/Research is active, not by default in every reply. Spot-check that your cited-answer and Research outputs actually show sources before you rely on them. (verify in the UI) **Quick verification pass:** run one cited web answer, one PDF Q&A inside a Project, and one Research report. If all three return sourced output, you're migrated.
