Samsung Expands Galaxy AI with Multi-Agent Ecosystem and Perplexity Integration
LONDON, UK – Feb. 22, 2026 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. Today announced the continued expansion of Galaxy AI, reinforcing its vision for a rich, open and integrated multi-agent ecosystem. Built around Samsung’s vision of AI that reduces effort and steps across everyday tasks, Galaxy AI is designed to help users get things done more naturally with greater choice, flexibility and control.
The Rise of Multi-Agent AI
Recent internal Samsung research indicates a growing trend in users leveraging multiple AI agents depending on the task. Nearly 8 in 10 users now rely on more than two types of AI agents as AI becomes increasingly integrated into daily routines. Reflecting this shift, Samsung is evolving Galaxy AI to support a choice of integrated agents, enabling users to select experiences that best fit their needs, preferences and routines.
Galaxy AI: A System-Level Approach
Galaxy AI is built to bring meaningful AI directly into the operating system through deep, framework-level connections across the device. Rather than operating within individual apps, Galaxy AI works at the system level by understanding the user’s context to support more natural interactions. This approach minimizes the require to switch between applications or repeat commands, allowing Galaxy AI to operate seamlessly in the background.
This system-level integration also enables Samsung to curate experiences from supporting services, such as Perplexity, while maintaining a cohesive experience within the Galaxy environment.
Perplexity Joins the Galaxy AI Ecosystem
As part of this multi-agent expansion, Samsung will introduce Perplexity as an additional AI agent on upcoming flagship Galaxy devices. Users will be able to access Perplexity through a dedicated voice wake phrase, “Hey Plex,” or via quick-access controls such as pressing and holding the side button, providing easy access to contextual assistance. Deeply embedded across select Samsung apps – including Samsung Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder and Calendar, as well as select third-party apps – Perplexity’s AI agent enables smoother, multi-step workflows, allowing users to move seamlessly between tasks without manual app management.
Commitment to an Open and Inclusive AI Ecosystem
“We’ve been committed to building an open and inclusive integrated AI ecosystem that gives users more choice, flexibility and control to get complex tasks done quickly and easily,” said Won-Joon Choi, President, Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Head of the R&. D Office, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Galaxy AI acts as an orchestrator, bringing together different forms of AI into a single, natural, cohesive experience.”
Samsung remains focused on enabling experiences that are easy to leverage and available to all as it continues to expand its inclusive AI ecosystem through collaboration with trusted partners. Additional details about supported devices and experiences will be announced soon.
