# Dust vs Perplexity Enterprise

> Published by onAI. onAI also sells one of the products compared here. Findings about other products link to public sources so you can check them; statements about onAI are marked as stated by onAI.

> Perplexity Enterprise lifecycle: sunset. The organisation file repository retired October 1, 2026; the vendor says remaining files are deleted. This does not end Enterprise or Projects. Scope: Legacy Enterprise organisation file repository only. Continuation: Projects or supported File Connectors continue; downloading and moving files requires manual migration. Checked 2026-10-21; agent cross-checked 2026-10-21; check again by 2026-12-20. Sources: perplexity:perplexity:p-repo-retire, perplexity:perplexity:p-filelimits, perplexity:perplexity:p-security-hub.

This comparison has 46 criteria with sourced findings for both products, including 46 that a second agent cross-checked for both. 49 criteria have a sourced finding for at least one product. "Sourced" findings passed publication validation: they are scoped, fresh and cite public resolved sources. "Agent cross-checked" findings also received a separate agent source pass, not necessarily a hands-on test. "Stated by onAI" marks the publisher's own statements about its product (evidence type vendor-statement), which cite no third-party source. Humans approve the rubric, templates and generator; they do not review every finding. It does not declare a winner. A missing sourced finding is not evidence that a capability is absent.

## Models

### MOD-01: Model catalogue and providers

Judgment rule: List each available model by provider and plan, including reasoning, fast and multimodal variants. Record whether the user picks the model, the product routes automatically, or both. A provider counts only if at least one of its current models is selectable on the scoped plan.

#### Dust

Verification status: Agent cross-checked (agent-cross-checked)
Support: partial

Dust offers per-message model choice and ordered auto-model lists, with access-tier and region controls.

Availability: generally-available
Delivery: native
Scope: surfaces=Dust web workspace, Dust EU web workspace; version=Public source pass 2026-10-21; no logged-in deployment observed; plan=Business credit plan (Free/Pro/Max); Enterprise model access inherits the published catalogue; model-tier and EU eligibility separately constrained; add_ons=none stated; deployment_mode=multi-tenant-saas; region=US/global or EU workspace as named; EU-hosted-model restriction must be enabled separately; os=not specified.

Limitations:
- Documented findings only; unestablished atomic questions remain explicit gaps.
- The catalogue finding is restricted to named documentation entries; conflicting Gemini4 Argon EU eligibility is an explicit gap.

- providers — Which model providers are available? [supported]: Docs list OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral and Fireworks-served models; exact enabled models depend on workspace and tier. Sources: dust:dust:models, dust:dust:eu-models.
- current_models — Which current models are selectable on this plan? [partial]: The model-selection document lists GPT6.1 Sol, Claude Opus5.5/Sonnet5.5, Gemini3.8 Flash and Mistral models. Gemini4 Argon is excluded from this current-EU availability finding: its release note conflicts with the EU table, and the documented authoritative picker flag was not observed. No complete current tenant catalogue is claimed. Sources: dust:dust:models, dust:dust:changelog, dust:dust:eu-models, dust:dust:pricing.
- user_choice — Can users pick the model per chat? [supported]: The composer chooses a model for the next message; Agent Builder sets a persistent agent default. Sources: dust:dust:models.
- auto_routing — Does the product route between models automatically, and is the chosen model shown? [supported]: Basic/Standard/Premium use ordered candidate lists and availability fallback, not prompt-dependent task routing. A replacement indicator names the fallback during a detected outage. Sources: dust:dust:models.
- multimodal_input — Which models accept images, audio or files? [partial]: Conversation files support images, documents and audio transcripts; the exact input capability for every current model is not fully tabulated. Sources: dust:dust:files.

### VEN-01: Pricing model and list prices

Judgment rule: Record pricing unit (per seat, per active user, usage-based, platform fee, hybrid), list prices per plan in original currency with date, included usage and credits, add-on prices (connectors, agents, image generation) and overage rates. Cite public prices or dated quotes. Per-seat versus usage is a fact, not a quality judgment.

Limitations:

- Do not present Business PAYG as established; retain list seat prices separately from the unresolved overage route.

- pricing_unit — What is the pricing unit? [partial]: Business publishes per-seat subscriptions and included credits.

[unknown]: Effective Business post-allocation billing is unknown: current pricing FAQ allows Pro/Max workspace overage, while Credit management reserves PAYG for Enterprise and describes prepaid Business top-ups. The USD0.01/credit Business programmatic rate does not resolve whether interactive overage is PAYG or prepaid. No account/contract test resolved this.
