Please refer to our FAQs here that talks about why you could be seeing differences - [Frequently Asked Questions - Perplexity](https://docs.perplexity.ai/faq/faq#why-are-the-results-from-the-api-different-from-the-ui).

Another thing is the API does not support location today - passing in location in the prompt might work but might not be accurate all the time.
