“Magenta AI in the MeinMagenta app is launched in cooperation with Perplexity. Deutsche Telekom is thus bringing one of the booming AI companies into its portfolio and making it available to all customers free of charge,” the operator announced on Tuesday.

Discover Section

Magenta AI also features a curated selection of articles in the app’s “Discover” section, helping users build knowledge in a fun, interactive way. The service is available to all Telekom customers free of charge, with a focus on providing answers not only related to Telekom services but also for personal inquiries.

“This is the starting signal for Magenta AI. In this way, we optimise the customer experience and support customers in their daily search for relevant information. Not only on topics related to Telekom and its contract. But also for questions that interest them privately,” says Wolfgang Metze, Managing Director for Private Customers at Telekom Deutschland GmbH.
