# pplx-decider > pplx-decider is Perplexity's multimodal decision model, a fine-tune of Qwen3.8-27B. It answers yes or no, choice and score questions about text, JSON and images with probabilities, through Perplexity's hosted Decisions API or from open weights on Hugging Face. - Canonical: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/pplx-decider - Markdown: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/pplx-decider.md (~7,900 tokens) - Slim: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/pplx-decider.min.md (~1,530 tokens, same facts, less prose, for token-sensitive contexts) - JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/pplx-decider.json (this page as data, same URL with Accept: application/json) - Site index for agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/llms.txt (full text: https://www.anchorterminal.com/llms-full.txt) - API: https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/index.json - Updated: 2026-10-10 ## Overview **Grade B · 62.9/100 · rank #417 of 950 · #7 in Decision models · not agent-ready · confidence medium** ## Assessment The hosted Decisions API has an OpenAPI description, typed questions, documented limits and a published price of $0.02 per million input tokens, and the v1.1 weights are public under Apache-2.0. The API is days old, the official Python SDK has no method for it, and the governing terms and privacy notice could not be read on 9 October 2026. ## Facts | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Vendor | Perplexity (https://www.perplexity.ai/) | | Kind | Model API | | Category | Decision models (https://www.anchorterminal.com/categories/decision-models) | | Transport | HTTP | | Endpoint | `https://api.perplexity.ai/v1/decisions` | | Auth | API key · Hosted API.

Weights. The Hugging Face repository is public and not gated, and the bundled server takes an optional `AUTOJEV_API_KEY`. | | Pricing | Pay per use (Pay per use) · $0.02 per million input tokens on Perplexity's Decisions API for both `pplx-decider-v1.1-27b` and `pplx-decider-v1-27b`. Output tokens are free and there is no per-request fee. The changelog says v1 launched at $0.04. Usage draws on prepaid credits, and the billing guide asks for a credit card. No free allowance was found.

Confidence: medium. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. "This run" is each category's share of the 100 points. | Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Reliability | 16% | 20 | 61 | 12.2 | | Performance | 10% | pending | pending | n/a | | Schema & documentation | 13% | 16.2 | 90 | 14.6 | | Agent ergonomics | 13% | 16.2 | 76 | 12.3 | | Security & auth | 14% | 17.5 | 61 | 10.7 | | Payments & pricing | 10% | 12.5 | 25 | 3.1 | | Task success | 10% | pending | pending | n/a | | Maintenance & community | 7% | 8.8 | 62 | 5.4 | | Transparency & trust (editorial 54, provenance 49) | 7% | 8.8 | 52 | 4.5 | | Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 | | **Total** | | | | **62.9 → B** | ### Why each score - Reliability 61: Read as a hosted model API, the surface an agent would call. status.perplexity.com has an API component with uptime from July to October 2026 and an incident feed. It has no Decisions component (20). The Decisions API was released in October 2026, so its own record is days long. The feed names one API incident, on 13 August 2026, before the release and with no duration shown, so 8 of 30 for a clean record too short to count, the reading given to the other decision APIs in their first days. The guide states 10 requests a second per organisation on every plan, and a token limit with no number (13 of 15). 429 carries `Retry-After`, successful responses carry `x-ratelimit-*` headers, the guide says to retry 5xx with backoff, and a decision has no side effects (15). The API FAQ says Perplexity does not guarantee uptime or recovery time (0). The guide carries no beta label, but the description file is named `openapi-gateway-preview.json` at version 0.1.0 and the official Python SDK has no method for the endpoint (5 of 10). - Performance: Pending. Latency is measured per call by our probes, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until the first probe window closes. - Schema & documentation 90: An OpenAPI 3.0.3 description of `POST /decisions` is embedded in the reference page and listed in llms.txt as `openapi-gateway-preview.json`. We read the embedded copy (25). llms.txt indexes the guide, the reference and four cookbook pages, each with a Markdown twin (10). The guide says what a decision model is, where to use it in place of a chat model and what it does not do. The model card adds serving caveats. No page lists languages or known weak areas (16 of 20). Questions are a union discriminated on `type`, with 1 to 128 questions, 1 to 255 options, 1 to 10 levels and unknown fields rejected. `state` and `instructions` accept any string, object or array by design (13 of 15). Examples in Python, TypeScript and curl with a real response, and a status table for 400, 401, 404, 405, 413, 429 and 5xx. The guide says `error.code` changes type between errors (14 of 15). Versioned model IDs that must be named on every request, a `/v1` path and a changelog with both Decisions entries, dated by month only (12 of 15). - Agent ergonomics 76: Read as an API an agent calls for a decision. Answers are a few numbers per question, input may run to just under 262,144 tokens, and images travel inside `state`. No batch route or caching for the endpoint was found (20 of 25). The caller sets the whole output shape, with up to 128 questions, 255 options and 10 levels in a call (18 of 20). The error table gives a cause and an action for each status. 404 and 405 have empty bodies, 504 can be an HTML page, and an oversized image waits about a minute before a 504 where a 400 would be expected (14 of 20). A decision has no side effects, 429 names its wait, and the guide says identical requests can differ in the second decimal place (17 of 20). Three required fields and any HTTP client. The official Python SDK at 0.43.8, cloned on 9 October, has no Decisions method, and the TypeScript SDK was not read (7 of 15). - Security & auth 61: Read for a model API. Project API keys are shown once, can be revoked, and can be generated and revoked through two documented endpoints with a rotation guide. No per-key scopes or spending limits were found (22 of 30). The API FAQ says query data sent through the API is not retained and not used for training. The Privacy and Security page states zero retention for the Chat Completions API only and does not name Decisions, and the governing terms were not read (12 of 20). The endpoint judges text and images that often come from users. It returns only probabilities and never fetches a URL, and the cookbook index describes code applying cut-offs before an action runs. No guidance on adversarial input was found in the guide or reference (5 of 15). Responses carry `x-request-id` and token usage, and admins see usage and per-key invoice lines in the console. No audit log was found (10 of 15). The docs name a SOC 2 Type II report and a trust centre, which is script-drawn and was not read. The SDK repository has a `SECURITY.md` with a private advisory form. No security.txt was found on the docs host and no bounty was found (12 of 20). - Payments & pricing 25: No x402, MPP or L402 in the guide, the reference, the pricing page or llms.txt (0). The price is published without a login, $0.02 per million input tokens with free output and no per-request fee (20). Usage is prepaid, the billing guide asks for a credit card, and no free allowance was found (0). A person signs up in the console. The Stripe Projects route lets a coding agent provision a project, a key and credits from a terminal, but it needs a person's Stripe account with a payment method and a $10 minimum purchase, and the key-generation endpoint needs an existing key (5 of 20). The weights are free, and the hosted price is what this line grades. - Task success: Pending. Task success needs the category task suites run through each tool, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until then. A data provider's data-quality score is published on its listing now and becomes half of this category when it's scored. - Maintenance & community 62: Read for a hosted model with open weights. The v1.1 weights were committed on 5 October 2026 and the changelog carries the switch under October 2026 (30). The FAQ says retirements are announced in the changelog with a replacement. No minimum notice period was found. v1 still answers after v1.1 replaced it (5 of 12). Two versions in five days, with v1 kept callable and its price cut to match, which is too short a history to judge churn (5 of 8). The changelog has several entries a month, and support runs through a community forum, a GitHub discussion repository and two email addresses. Replies were not sampled (10 of 15). The official Python SDK is current, with 0.43.8 on 7 October 2026 and three releases in 30 days, but has no Decisions method (7 of 15). The weights repository pins its requirements and ships a `uv.lock`. Its server code reads a `playground.html` that the v1.1 repository does not include, and the card still calls the repository private (5 of 10). - Transparency & trust 52: The v1.1 weights are public under Apache-2.0 with a `NOTICE` naming the base model and revision, and the repository carries the training code, config, a data manifest with 349 sources and the vendor's evaluation file. The v1 repository states MIT for its `source/` folder. The v1.1 `source/` folder has no licence file of its own and its pyproject carries a private classifier. The hosted service is closed (24 of 30). The API FAQ says prompts are not retained or trained on. The Privacy and Security page limits that statement to the Chat Completions API, and the terms, privacy notice and any DPA were not read because www.perplexity.ai answered 403 (14 of 30). Retirements are announced in the changelog, with no dated policy or notice period (8 of 20). The FAQ says compute is on AWS in North America. No subprocessor list was read, since the trust centre is script-drawn (8 of 20). Fix list for a coding agent, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (22 items): https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/pplx-decider.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/pplx-decider.json) ### What we couldn't check - unchecked: www.perplexity.ai answered 403 with a bot check, so the terms of service, the privacy notice, any API-specific terms or DPA and the legal entity were not read. `provenance.terms` and `provenance.privacy` are left out. Read them before any probe is run - unchecked: trust.perplexity.ai is script-drawn, so the SOC 2 Type II report, the subprocessor list and any security contact were not read - unchecked: the vendor announcement in the lead was not found on a page we could read. The price, the licence and the leaderboard result were each confirmed from other sources. The words tying the index to Hugging Face were not - The lead called the benchmark the Hugging Face Decision Index 0.3. It is the Space multimodalart/jev-decision-index, labelled Decision Index 0.3.1, under a personal account whose profile lists membership of the `huggingface` organisation. The Space calls itself unofficial and community-maintained - The leaderboard result is the index's measurement on one NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000, and 80 per cent of the Full score comes from private tests nobody outside can inspect. We have not run the model - The model's entry on the index carries the note that repository access was by request, and the card still says private, while the repository is public and not gated today. When it opened was not established - The training manifest lists 349 sources, most from tasksource. We compared their names with the index's public benchmarks and found no shared name, which is not a contamination audit. The licences of those sources were not reviewed - unchecked: the TypeScript SDK, the Hugging Face discussion threads, reply times on the community forum, and whether any host other than Perplexity serves the model - The guide carries no beta label, but the description file is named preview at version 0.1.0. Whether Perplexity treats the endpoint as generally available was not stated - The hosted API accepts just under 262,144 input tokens. The published inference code rejects a question over 8,192 tokens. How the hosted service differs from the published code was not established ### Sources - Hugging Face robots.txt (200, allows every path): (seen 2026-10-09) - Perplexity's models on Hugging Face, with creation and modification dates: (seen 2026-10-09) - v1.1 repository metadata (public, not gated, Apache-2.0, parameter count, downloads, likes): (seen 2026-10-09) - v1.1 repository at commit 5cd25e3, cloned without the weight files.

No legal entity was established. The pages read name the vendor only as Perplexity, and the Hugging Face organisation is marked as a verified company. The status page lists Website, App, Computer and API components, with no Decisions component. The changelog dates entries by month. The two Decisions entries are under October 2026. docs.perplexity.ai answered 404 for the well-known security.txt. The main site was not readable, so security.txt is unknown. Domain registration was not checked. ### Terms and privacy, as read A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. Not legal advice. **Terms of service** (https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/legal/terms-of-service), read 2026-10-09. Our reader couldn't read it (the page answered HTTP 403 to our reader). **Privacy policy** (https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/legal/privacy-notice), read 2026-10-09. Our reader couldn't read it (the page answered HTTP 403 to our reader). ## Live (updated 2026-10-10 05:39 UTC) - Right now: up, HTTP 401, 146 ms, checked 2026-10-10 05:39 UTC (get on `https://api.perplexity.ai/v1/decisions`, asks for auth) - Uptime 24h 100.0% (143 probes) · 30 days 100.0% (143 probes) · p50 185 ms · p95 1.2 s - Vendor status page: none, All Systems Operational - Watching changelog - Watching privacy - Watching terms - Always current: https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/live/pplx-decider.json ## Probe metrics Not measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. Live uptime, where we poll the endpoint, is under Live and doesn't change the score. ## Prices | Item | Price | Unit | Note | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Decision input | $0.02 | per 1M tokens | Same price for v1.1 and v1. State, questions and images count as input. | | Decision output | free | per 1M tokens | Output tokens are free. No per-request fee. | Across all listings: https://www.anchorterminal.com/prices/index.md ## Strengths - Weights for v1.1 and v1 are public on Hugging Face under Apache-2.0, with training code, config and a data manifest in the repository - One request takes up to 128 questions about one `state`, mixing `noul`, `choice` and `score`, with under 262,144 input tokens - $0.02 per million input tokens with free output and no per-request fee, published without a login - OpenAPI 3.0.3 description, llms.txt and Markdown pages for the guide and reference - Rate limit stated as 10 requests a second per organisation, with `Retry-After` on 429 and `x-ratelimit-*` headers ## Weaknesses - The Decisions API was released in October 2026, so its incident record is days long, and Perplexity's FAQ says it gives no uptime guarantee - The official Python SDK at 0.43.8 has no Decisions method. The guide uses a plain HTTP client - An image over 2,048 tiles is not rejected. The request waits about a minute and returns 504 - The zero-retention statement on the Privacy and Security page names only the Chat Completions API - The bundled server in the weights repository caps a question at 8,192 tokens and reads a `playground.html` the v1.1 repository does not include ## Before you call it (notes for agents) 1. Send `Authorization: Bearer`. A key in `x-api-key` returns 401 on this endpoint. 2. Set `model` on every request. A missing or unknown model returns 400, and the guide shows a `-latest` name rejected. 3. Resize images to 2,048 tiles of 32 by 32 pixels or fewer before sending. Larger images end in a 504 after about a minute. 4. Check the HTTP status before parsing an error. 404 and 405 have empty bodies, 504 can be HTML, and `error.code` changes type. 5. For the weights, use the repository's `autojev` code. The card says default causal inference does not reproduce the evaluated setup. ## Connect First request: ```bash curl -X POST https://api.perplexity.ai/v1/decisions \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $PERPLEXITY_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"model":"pplx-decider-v1.1-27b","state":"The headphones sound great, but the battery stopped charging after two weeks.","questions":{"defect":{"type":"noul","instructions":"Does the review report a product defect?"}}}' ``` ## Similar tools Ranked by shared capabilities, then score.

How reviews work: https://www.anchorterminal.com/reviews/how-it-works.md ## Notable - The v1.1 weights were published on 5 October 2026 under Apache-2.0, with a `LICENSE` and a `NOTICE` naming Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B as the base. The repository is public and not gated, with 26.1 billion BF16 parameters in safetensors (source: ) - Perplexity's changelog for October 2026 says `pplx-decider-v1.1-27b` replaces v1 as the Decisions API model and that input costs $0.02 per million tokens, down from $0.04. Requests naming v1 still work at $0.02 (source: ) - Third-party leaderboard, not our measurement. On Decision Index 0.3.1 (data generated 7 October 2026) `pplx-decider-v1.1-27b` is ranked first of 115 entries with a Full score of 62.75, untied. Jev scores 60.11. On the public-only part it is second with 62.25, behind Torchcast Decision 27B at 65.10 (source: ) - The Decision Index is a static Space under the personal Hugging Face account multimodalart. Its README calls it unofficial and community-maintained. That account's public profile lists membership of the `huggingface` organisation, and no Hugging Face page we read says Hugging Face runs or endorses the index (source: ) - The index's Full score is 20 per cent public benchmarks, 50 per cent private tests of the same skills and 30 per cent private tasks from new domains.

The badge or a plain link to this page verifies the listing, from a page on perplexity.ai or one of its subdomains. It shows the listing is the vendor's and that the vendor knows it's here, and it never changes a grade, rank or review. The vendor sends the page's address to `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/verify` as `{"slug": "pplx-decider", "url": "…"}`, or calls the `verify_listing` tool at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp. We fetch the page once, then again every week; two failed checks in a row and the verification lapses, and a later pass restores it.
