Perplexity, with receipts
What do you want to do?
On-page practice needs no provider account. Choose a task, read its prerequisite, and start with the supplied cases.
Perplexity changed a great deal in 2026: Spaces became Projects, Labs became Create files and apps, Computer arrived with effort settings and credits, scheduled tasks moved to the Automations dashboard, and connectors and skills moved into a Plugins page. This dojo was rebuilt against Perplexity's own pages in October 2026. For people who need answers they can defend: how to ask a question that returns a usable answer, choose the right mode, and then open the source, trace every figure to the document that states it, and reject what does not survive. Every module is a bench of instruments you operate on an invented company's peer research, then a field exercise on a public question.
Three belts, one habit: ask well, then open the source
White belt is the answer and its receipts: the plans, a question asked like an analyst, the model and the sources it reads, and the habit of opening every citation. Brown makes it real work: Research runs that hold up, your own files, Projects, premium and finance data, files and decks, Computer, scheduled tasks and Comet, each with the check that proves it. Black runs it as a desk: Brain, skills and Model Council, governance for an organisation, triage when an answer or a bill goes wrong, and a verification SOP a colleague can follow. Explore in any order; the belt states below say what you have actually done.
