Financial filings to Perplexity

How to send financial filings to Perplexity

The hard part of asking Perplexity about financial filings is not the question. It is getting the pages in front of it. This walks through what Perplexity actually receives, what it will not get, and how to phrase the question so the extra context earns its place.

What gets captured

From financial filings, LocalBridge takes the filing text, section headings and tables that render as HTML. Page furniture such as navigation, sidebars and cookie notices is dropped before anything is sent, which keeps the batch small enough for Perplexity to reason over rather than skim.

Perplexity is search-first, so page text is most useful when you follow it with a narrow comparison question.

Step by step

  1. Step 1

    Open the pages you care about

    Put the financial filings you want answered in one browser window. Leave out everything unrelated: irrelevant pages cost context and pull the answer off topic.

  2. Step 2

    Tick the tabs to send

    Open LocalBridge and tick each tab. It reads the filing text, section headings and tables that render as HTML, and drops navigation, sidebars and cookie banners.

  3. Step 3

    Send to Perplexity

    Perplexity is not a one-click target yet. The formatted text is placed on your clipboard, so open Perplexity and paste it as your first message.

  4. Step 4

    Ask the question that needed all of them

    Follow the context with something only the full set can answer. For example: "What changed in the risk factors compared with the previous filing?"

Where it falls short

Filings served as PDFs give you the landing page rather than the document, and large tables can be truncated.

Common questions

Does Perplexity read the whole of each page?
It reads what LocalBridge captured: the filing text, section headings and tables that render as HTML. Each page is capped so one long document cannot crowd out the rest of the batch, and perplexity is search-first, so page text is most useful when you follow it with a narrow comparison question.
What does not come through from financial filings?
Filings served as PDFs give you the landing page rather than the document, and large tables can be truncated.
Do I need to be signed in for financial filings behind a login?
Yes. LocalBridge reads the page exactly as your browser already renders it, so if the tab shows the content, it is captured. It never logs in for you and never stores credentials.
How many financial filings can I send at once?
Up to eight tabs per send, trimmed so the batch stays inside a comfortable context budget. For bigger sets, send them in themed batches and ask one question per batch.
Is the page content stored anywhere?
No. The text goes from your browser to the assistant you chose. LocalBridge does not keep a copy and does not send page content to our servers.
