I love these kinds of arguments. If we think the marketing isn’t working then we’re not important enough to matter, but then also the fact that we’re talking about it matters and shows that it’s working.

Why?

You aren't a persona who is targeted at all by Perplexity's product.

It's not a B2C or individual DevTool.

They've raised their Series A and B for an Enterprise Sales (ie. F1000 and strategics) motion.
