Ekho uses Perplexity's APIs to power search-augmented AI capabilities across Ekho products, combined with dealer and brand-specific fine-tuning for real-time, grounded responses.
Get startedEkho integrates with Perplexity's API to add search-augmented intelligence to AI products — enabling the Sales Agent and other tools to pull in real-time information from the web when answering buyer questions. This is especially useful for questions about competitor comparisons, market pricing, and product specifications that go beyond your dealership's own data. All responses are still grounded in your dealer-specific context through Ekho's fine-tuning layer.
Perplexity is integrated at the platform level — no configuration needed. Ekho automatically routes queries to Perplexity's API when real-time search context would improve the response quality. Your dealership data and brand voice are applied on top.
