See it in action

Watch Ralph import tasks and run them across multiple workers simultaneously.
Each worker processes tasks independently, streaming output in real-time.

The difference is ridiculous

😩 The Old Way

  • Open your AI tool
  • Paste task #1
  • Wait for it to finish
  • Copy the result
  • Paste task #2
  • Do this 200 more times
  • Lose your mind
~8 hours for 200 tasks

🚀 The Ralph Way

  • Import spreadsheet → 200 tasks loaded
  • Click Start
  • 50 workers go brrr
  • All results saved as files
  • Go get coffee
~12 minutes for 200 tasks

Three steps. That's it.

1

Import Your Tasks

Drop in a spreadsheet or JSON file. Map your columns. Every row becomes a task. Every column becomes a variable you can use in your instructions.

2

Write Your Instructions

Pick a built-in template or write your own. Use variables like {{task_name}} or any column from your file. Set how many workers you want.

3

Watch Ralph Work

Hit Start. Each worker grabs a task, does the work, saves the result. Watch it all happen live. Every output saved as a file on your computer.

But wait, can't I just use...?

Why not just use Claude Code to process 1,000 tasks?
Claude Code is a brilliant coding assistant, but it processes one thing at a time, sequentially. Ask it to handle 1,000 tasks and you're watching it churn through them one by one for hours. Ralph spawns up to 50 independent workers simultaneously. That same batch finishes in minutes, not hours. Plus:
  • Claude Code's context window fills up fast, by task #50 it's forgetting task #1
  • Ralph gives each task a fresh, clean context, no cross-contamination
  • Every result is saved as a separate file on your computer, not buried in a chat log
  • If one task fails, you retry just that one, not the entire conversation
  • No coding or CLI knowledge needed, just import a spreadsheet
What about Claude Cowork or multi-agent setups?
Claude Cowork is great for collaborative coding workflows where agents work together on a shared codebase. But it's not built for batch processing hundreds of independent tasks. Ralph is purpose-built for this:
  • Spreadsheet-native, import CSV/JSON, map columns to variables, go
  • Visual dashboard, see all 50 workers running live, track progress, spot failures instantly
  • Template engine, write your instructions once with {{variables}}, reuse across thousands of tasks
  • File output, every result saved as a named file, organized and ready to use
  • Cowork agents share context and coordinate, Ralph workers are deliberately independent, which is exactly what you want for batch jobs
How is Ralph different from OpenAI Codex?
Codex is a cloud-based code generation agent that runs in sandboxed environments. It's designed for software engineering tasks, not general-purpose batch work. Ralph is fundamentally different:
  • Desktop app, runs locally on your Mac, no cloud sandbox, your files stay on your computer
  • Any task, not just code, content writing, translations, data analysis, legal docs, meal plans, whatever you can describe in words
  • Bring your own AI, use Claude, GPT, or any AI with a CLI or API. Not locked to one provider
  • Designed for non-developers, no GitHub repos, no pull requests, no terminal. Just a spreadsheet and a Start button
  • True parallel execution, 50 workers processing 50 tasks at the exact same time, not queued sequentially
Can't I just write a script to loop through tasks with an API?
Sure, if you're a developer. But that means writing code to handle concurrency, retries, rate limits, file output, error handling, and progress tracking. Ralph gives you all of that out of the box with zero code:
  • Built-in concurrency management with configurable worker count
  • Automatic retry on failures with one-click manual retry
  • Real-time streaming output from every worker
  • Pause, resume, and stop controls
  • SQLite persistence, close the app and pick up where you left off
  • Reusable prompt templates so you don't rewrite instructions every time
You could build this yourself. Or you could just download Ralph and be done in 2 minutes.
Is Ralph just for developers?
Not at all. Ralph was built for anyone who works with repetitive tasks at scale. Our users are lawyers, teachers, real estate agents, nutritionists, social media managers, translators, and more. If you can make a spreadsheet and write instructions in plain English, you can use Ralph. No terminal, no code, no API keys required (unless you want to use API mode).
Is this secure?
Ralph runs Claude Code under the hood, a powerful AI coding agent by Anthropic. All tasks are executed locally on your machine through the CLI. Ralph does not store, transmit, or have access to your data beyond what Claude Code processes during execution. That said, the user is fully responsible for reviewing outputs and ensuring compliance with their own security policies. Use it wisely.
Who developed Ralph?
Ralph was created by Hila Shmuel, a former Engineering Manager at Apple, built with the highest standards of quality, performance, and user experience. Connect with Hila on LinkedIn or X (Twitter).
Why was Ralph created?
The Ralph Wiggum concept started as a simple bash loop that went viral on X, and later became an official Claude Code plugin. I took the idea much further, building an advanced task distribution orchestrator from scratch, handling massive batches like enriching 1,000+ website pages with SEO metadata, generating content at scale, and bulk-processing structured data. I gave lectures about the approach and open-sourced my orchestrator code.

Then my brother asked me to transcribe hundreds of audio files. I told him he could use Cowork or other solutions, but the orchestration loop itself would burn through tokens, and none of the current tools offer a proper plan → execute in batch → summarize results workflow.

That's when it clicked: the concept was proven, the architecture was solid, what was missing was a beautiful UI that brings it all to life for everyone. I took years of thinking about task distribution and packaged it into something non-technical people could use in minutes. A lawyer reviewing 500 contracts, a teacher generating personalized feedback for an entire class, a real estate agent creating listings for 200 properties, a nutritionist building meal plans for all their clients, all done in parallel, in minutes instead of days. That's why Ralph exists.
