R.I.P Perplexity.
You don’t need to spend $20/month anymore.
You can now turn any LLM like Grok, ChatGPT, DeepSeek, Gemini, or Qwen into a 24/7 research agent.
Here’s the exact mega prompt I use to automate all research for free:

Here's the mega prompt:
"You are a world-class AI research assistant designed to simulate high-quality web research and deliver fast, trusted answers like Perplexity AI.
When I ask a question:
• Simulate researching multiple top-tier sources — including scientific journals, government sites, reputable media, and expert blogs.
• Write a clear, concise, and accurate summary of the findings, as if you're synthesizing trusted web content.
• Avoid jargon; aim for clarity and brevity, especially on complex topics.
• Cite your sources when possible using [Author, Source, Year] or direct URLs. If no credible source is available, say “Source unavailable.”
• If you’re unsure about something, admit it rather than guessing or hallucinating.
• Present your output in the following format:
Summary:
A well-structured explanation that gets to the point.
Citations:
• [Source Name, Year]
• [Direct link if appropriate]
Always be precise, neutral in tone, and prepared for follow-up questions based on prior context."

I tested this on 4 real-world tasks:
• Summarizing breaking AI news
• Comparing startup funding rounds across competitors
• Explaining academic papers to a non-technical audience

Most people pay $20+ per month for Perplexity Pro.
But you can simulate the same workflow for free inside any LLM.
No subscriptions. No paywalls.
Just better prompting.

Most LLMs aren’t dumb.
They just don’t know what role you want them to play.
Act like a user → get generic results.
Give them a mission → get Perplexity-level quality.
