Vercel AI Gateway now integrates Perplexity web search as a provider-agnostic tool, allowing models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others to search the web in real-time with a single line of code. Models automatically decide when to search and incorporate results into responses. This is particularly useful for code assistants that need current package versions, breaking changes, and incident information.
