A sourced answer you can check, and a decision your team can sign off.

You start withA choice between tools, vendors or plans that others must agree to
You end withA decision doc with a sourced comparison table and one pick to sign off
Step 1

Use Perplexity

Answers with a source behind every claim, so you can check each one.

Open Perplexity

Save it as options-research.md. Ask Perplexity what the options and their plans are, click Export under the answer, choose Markdown and give the file to your agent.

Step 2

Give your agent the Doc Coauthoring skill

Writes the decision doc: who decides, the options and the must-haves.

npx skills add anthropics/skills --skill doc-coauthoring

Save it as decision-doc.md. Paste the Options section of decision-doc.md into {{Options to compare}} and its Must-haves into {{My situation and must-haves}}.

Step 3

Run the Compare Options With Sources prompt

A sourced comparison table, the deal-breakers and one recommendation.

An assistant with web search, such as Perplexity, ChatGPT with search or a deep research mode, fits best, because prices and plan limits change and need current pages.
