Overview

Building a working prototype shouldn’t need to require a team of engineers and months of development. With Perplexity, you can create a functional prototype of an app to share it directly with stakeholders, customers, or your team. Do this to validate an idea before dedicating more resources around it.

Ask Perplexity to build an interactive prototype:

Build a prototype app that allows users to book test driving appointments for all the Toyota cars available in the U.S. The goal is to have a streamlined test drive experience for our customers. It should include: One-click scheduling with real-time availability, Pre-drive vehicle prep (your height, your music, climate settings), Self-guided test drive routes based on your priorities (highway, city, parking), In-app checklist for what to evaluate, Post-drive feedback form to refine recommendations, Instant comparison if testing multiple vehicles

Perplexity's answer

Perplexity generates a complete, interactive prototype app. Let Perplexity code it for you. The example app includes:

  • Live booking calendar with Toyota dealership availability

  • Personalization panel to set seat height, music preference, and climate settings before arrival

  • Route selector for highway, city, or parking-focused drives

  • Dynamic evaluation checklist that updates based on vehicle selection

  • Feedback form with real-time notes and ratings

  • Comparison dashboard showing side-by-side vehicle metrics from your test drive sessions

You can immediately test it, share the link with your team, gather feedback, and iterate. No deployment. No backend.

Tips
  • Share the live link with stakeholders. They can book, customize, and test immediately without needing to understand how it works under the hood

  • Iterate fast: Ask Perplexity to adjust the layout, add new Toyota models, change the feedback questions, or refine the route options. Each request generates an updated, shareable prototype

  • Use real data: Ask Perplexity to populate the app with actual data on the web or through your files

  • Export feedback: The prototype captures user choices and feedback, perfect for validating your concept before building the production version

  • Test different flows: Generate variations (mobile-only version, dealership kiosk version, family co-buyer mode) to see what resonates
