Perplexity, an AI-powered search product startup, is facing a federal lawsuit filed by Perplexity Solved Solutions, a Texas-based firm alleging trademark infringement. According to the complaint, Perplexity Solved Solutions registered its trademark in late 2022 and accuses the AI startup of infringing upon this trademark since August 2022. Both companies provide similar software solutions aimed at HR collaboration, leading to claims that they appeal to the same market niche. The legal clash raises questions about intellectual property in the growing tech sector.
The complaint asserts that Perplexity's usage of the trademark 'Perplexity' infringes on the rights of Perplexity Solved Solutions, undermining their brand.
Perplexity Solved Solutions secured a trademark registration by November 2022 and started promoting products on its site, perplexityonline.com.
