Depending on the example of Free with the cat of Mistal AI, Bouygues Telecom decided to offer a year of subscription the Perplexity Pro to all its subscribers, fixed or mobile. Simple com com or real market trend?
After Free, Bouygues launched AI. Tuesday, February 11, 2025, the operator announced the signing of an exclusive partnership with Perplexity. Thus, all Bouygues Telecom customers will be entitled to 12 months of free access to Perplexity Pro, the premium version of the search engine combined with a conversational assistant.
To get Perplexity Pro, Bouygues customers will need to activate the option directly on their customer area. Whether on smartphone or computer, “Just go to the presentation page of this service on the Bouygues Telecom site and create a Perplexity account” As explained by press release partnership. At the end of the 12 months offered, Bouygues subscribers will automatically tip over to the free version of the platform for continuity of use without obligation.
A saving of several hundred euros
Usually billed 22 euros per month, Bouygues’ offer allows subscribers to save nearly 264 euros in spending over a year. In addition, Perplexity Pro offers many advantages compared to its classic version. The user will be able to carry out nearly 300 pro/day searches (against 5 on “classic” perplexity), use AI models such as cat-gpt4 and claude 3, and obtain a detailed and organized response quality (rather than a basic response).
In addition, the Pro offer includes the importation of unlimited files, the generation of images with Dall-E3, stable diffusion, or XL, or the creation of personal pages on specific subjects. Finally, as the press release recalls, Perplexity Pro is a reference platform in the use of daily AI which facilitates in particular tasks in the field of financial analysis, travel planning, or even the analysis of sources of information.
The question that arises now, after these two consecutive announcements, is whether the AI is simply used to make the buzz this moment or if this kind of tool will now be part of the panoply offered by operators to their Subscribers. Wait and see!
