Perplexity: Decider V1 27B

perplexity/pplx-decider-v1-27b

Compare

Decider V1 27B is a decision model from Perplexity. Instead of generating text, it reads content passed as state and returns typed, probabilistic answers to one or more named questions in a single request: the probability of yes for a yes/no question (noul), a probability for every option plus the most likely one (choice), or a probability for every level of an ordered rubric plus the expected score (score).

It is built for classification, routing, moderation, and rubric grading where application code thresholds the returned numbers rather than parsing a chat reply. A request can carry up to 128 questions about the same content. On OpenRouter it currently accepts text and JSON state; image inputs are not yet supported.

Providers

This model is hosted by one provider. OpenRouter forwards every request to it directly — no routing decisions to make.

Pricing

The average price customers actually pay for this model, next to the prices providers post. Caching and discounts mean the price actually paid is often well below the listed one.

Performance

Throughput is how fast the model writes (tokens per second — higher is better). Latency is total round-trip time (lower is better). TTFT is time-to-first-token — how long before you see anything appear (lower is better).

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

Apps

Public apps that send the most traffic to this model. Good signal for what real production workloads look like — and a hint at which use cases this model is best suited for.

Activity

Token volume and request traffic to this model over time.

API

Drop-in code to call this model. It runs on the OpenRouter Decisions API rather than the OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint, so the request and response shapes below are specific to structured decisions — chat completions SDKs will not work with it.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and customization options.

Sonar Pro Search

Exclusively available on the OpenRouter API, Sonar Pro's new Pro Search mode is Perplexity's most advanced agentic search system. It is designed for deeper reasoning and analysis. Pricing is based on tokens plus $18 per thousand requests. This model powers the Pro Search mode on the Perplexity platform.

Sonar Pro Search adds autonomous, multi-step reasoning to Sonar Pro. So, instead of just one query + synthesis, it plans and executes entire research workflows using tools.

R1 1776

R1 1776 is a version of DeepSeek-R1 that has been post-trained to remove censorship constraints related to topics restricted by the Chinese government. The model retains its original reasoning capabilities while providing direct responses to a wider range of queries. R1 1776 is an offline chat model that does not use the perplexity search subsystem.

The model was tested on a multilingual dataset of over 1,000 examples covering sensitive topics to measure its likelihood of refusal or overly filtered responses. Evaluation Results Its performance on math and reasoning benchmarks remains similar to the base R1 model. Reasoning Performance
