Perplexity AI Offers Free Public Safety Platform for Law Enforcement

January 16, 2026
Perplexity AI has introduced a new initiative providing law enforcement agencies with free access to its Enterprise Pro platform for one year, enabling officers to use multimodal AI tools for field and administrative tasks.

Perplexity AI has launched a new program for law enforcement agencies, according to the company website. The initiative, called Perplexity for Public Safety, gives qualifying public safety organizations free access to Perplexity Enterprise Pro for up to 200 users over a 12‑month period.

The platform is designed to support officers in the field and at headquarters through multimodal AI capabilities. Users can upload scene photos, review body‑camera footage transcripts, or ask questions by voice to receive cited information from trusted sources. The system also allows for summarizing incident reports, analyzing social media activity related to public safety incidents, and generating timelines from investigator notes.

Perplexity Enterprise Pro includes mobile support and enterprise‑grade security controls. The company states that the platform does not train on user data and offers management tools to prevent data sharing across teams. Discounted agency plans are available for larger deployments beyond the initial free period.
