Is Perplexity's New Computer a Safer Version of OpenClaw? How It Works

Perplexity unveiled Computer, a multi‑agent orchestration platform that combines more than a dozen cutting‑edge AI models into a single digital worker. The system, currently limited to Perplexity Max users, uses Claude Opus 4.6 for core reasoning and delegates specialized tasks to models like Google’s Nano Banana, Veo, Grok and GPT‑5.2. Positioned as a safer alternative to OpenClaw, Computer runs inside a secure sandbox and offers users granular control over model selection. Perplexity claims thousands of internal tasks have validated its quality and reliability.
