Connect Perplexity to Relay and automate your tasks

Why integrate Perplexity with Relay

The Perplexity to Relay integration helps you sync data, automate manual tasks, and keep your stack aligned — without writing code.

Answer customer and team questions with live data from your store

When a question comes in — about a product, an order status, a policy — MESA pulls the relevant Shopify data and passes it to Perplexity to generate a clear, accurate answer. Your team and your customers get responses grounded in what's actually in your store right now.

Research competitors and market trends without leaving your workflow

When a Shopify product, collection, or pricing decision is flagged for review, MESA triggers a Perplexity search and delivers the findings to your team through Slack, Google Docs, or Airtable. Your decisions are informed by current market context without manual research interrupting the workday.

Enrich order and customer records with real-world context

When a new B2B customer or wholesale account places their first Shopify order, MESA passes their details to Perplexity to research the company and appends the findings to their record. Your team knows who they're dealing with before the first follow-up.

Break sprawling automations into manageable pieces

Relay lets one workflow hand off to another, so each piece stays focused and easy to maintain. Update or reuse a single step without touching everything downstream.

Catch workflow failures before they cost you an order

When a workflow errors, Relay routes the failure to another workflow that retries the task, alerts your team, or reroutes the order. Nothing silently drops.

Let AI decide how to handle a broken workflow

Your AI assistant reviews the failed step, the data involved, and past outcomes, then chooses whether to retry, escalate, or reroute the task. No manual triage required.

Build any Perplexity and Relay automation

MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running.
