stock surged 13% on Thursday after announcing a $400 million deal with Perplexity AI and releasing its third-quarter financial results.

The company said that it will be integrating Perplexity’s artificial intelligence-powered search engine directly into the Snapchat app.

As part of the agreement, Perplexity is set to pay the social media platform $400 million over one year “through a combination of cash and equity,” according to Snap’s letter to investors.
