Show HN: I made a better Perplexity for developers

I would also love an API like this for integration with Plandex[1] (a terminal-based coding agent for complex tasks). Perplexity has an API but it only exposes various open source LLMs, not the search-enriched results from their main product.

It would be really cool if, when starting a coding task with Plandex, relevant docs/context from a web search could be automatically included in context via this kind of API. Currently urls can be loaded into context with `plandex load [url]` but you have to figure out which urls would be helpful to load yourself.

Great, we're on it. We'll be looking into this project and keeping you updated at our changelog hub: https://hub.devv.ai/changelog. As soon as our API goes live, we'll post the announcement there.

Is the Plandex Cloud still active ?

I dont see a link to it on the github/website. DO i have to self host right now ?

Good luck with this

Thanks! Cloud is active yes. Just install Plandex as described here https://github.com/plandex-ai/plandex?tab=readme-ov-file#ins... — then run `plandex new` and you’ll be prompted to start an anonymous trial on cloud.
