What You’ll Learn

  • How to select a specific team of AIs
  • When to use 2-4 AIs instead of all 5
  • The difference between multi-mention and task assignment
  • Practical examples

How to Do It

Include multiple @mentions in your message. Only the named AIs respond.
@Claude @Perplexity - What are the best approaches to reducing customer churn?
Claude and Perplexity respond. Grok, GPT-5.2, and Gemini stay silent.

When to Use Multiple (Not All 5)

You want specific strengths combined

@Perplexity @Claude - Research the latest data on remote work productivity and analyze the implications for our team.
Perplexity brings the research. Claude brings the analysis. You skip the others because you don’t need real-time social data or technical structure for this question.

You want speed

Two AIs respond faster than five. If you know which perspectives you need, skip the rest.

You’ve already had the full-team round

After all 5 responded, you might want to go deeper with just the 2-3 that gave the most relevant answers.

You’re comparing specific viewpoints

@Claude @GPT - How would you each approach this architecture decision differently?

Examples

Research + Analysis (2 AIs)

@Perplexity @Claude - Find recent case studies on AI-driven customer support and evaluate which approach would work for a 50-person SaaS company.

Creative + Technical (2 AIs)

@Grok @GPT - Draft 3 tagline options for our product (Grok) and evaluate which ones would work best as meta titles for SEO (GPT).

Research + Real-Time + Synthesis (3 AIs)

@Perplexity @Grok @Gemini - I need a complete picture of the current state of AI regulation. Academic research, current social conversation, and a synthesized overview.

Analysis Team (3 AIs)

@Claude @GPT @Gemini - Analyze our pricing page copy. What's working, what's weak, and how would you restructure it?

Multi-Mention vs. Task Assignment

Multi-mention - All named AIs answer the same question:
@Claude @GPT - What's the best database for this use case?
Both give their answer to the same question. Task assignment - Each AI gets a different job:
@Claude - Analyze the architectural trade-offs
@GPT - Build the schema for the recommended option
Each does something different. Both are valid. Use multi-mention when you want multiple perspectives on one question. Use task assignment when you want parallel work on different aspects.

The Response Order

When you @mention multiple AIs, they respond in their standard sequence:
  1. Grok (if mentioned)
  2. Perplexity (if mentioned)
  3. GPT-5.2 (if mentioned)
  4. Claude (if mentioned)
  5. Gemini (if mentioned)
Each sees what the previously-mentioned AIs said, maintaining the compounding benefit.

Tips

  • Start with all 5 for your first message on a new topic. Then narrow to 2-3 for follow-ups.
  • If two AIs disagreed in a full-team round, @mention just those two to continue the debate.
  • The silent AIs still track the conversation. You can bring them back in at any time.
  • There’s no limit to how many you can @mention - 2, 3, or 4 all work. (5 is the same as no @mention.)
