GPT-6 Sol is now available to all Perplexity users. On our Wide-And-Deep-Research (WANDR) evals, it outperforms Opus 5 at one-fifth the price. Sol will become the “Light” Effort orchestrator for Computer users, while Astra remains the orchestrator for "High" effort. Congrats to @OpenAI for consistently launching pareto-optimal models!
