# Rill A native Mac browser that lets Claude Code and Codex work from any page while you browse. - Findings24: - Website: - Pricing: Freemium - Categories: AI Agent Infrastructure, AI Browser Automation, AI Code Assistant ## What is Rill? Rill is a native Mac browser that puts Claude Code and Codex agents beside your web pages. From any page, you can send a task in plain language and continue browsing while the agent works in the background. Rill uses your existing Claude Code or Codex setup and can route requests to relevant local projects based on their history. Alongside agent workflows, Rill provides browser organization and retrieval tools: tabs can be grouped by activity, browsing is recorded in day-based episodes, and pages can be found by describing what you remember. Agents can also answer questions about a page or compare up to six tabs. Rill is free during its beta. Agent features require a supported Claude Code or Codex CLI installation and sign-in; ordinary browsing does not require either service. ## What can Rill do? ### Tasks from any page Press ⌘E to send a plain-language request from the page you are viewing. Rill selects a relevant local project from your Claude Code and Codex history and asks when it is unsure. ### Background agent work Agents continue working in their own area while you browse. Rill shows active agents, their models, tool steps, diffs, and completed work. ### Project-aware web access Agents in a project browse in separate tabs with separate website data and without your logins. Web tasks can use your sign-ins but stop before sensitive actions such as payment or posting unless you explicitly allow them. ### Browser organization and retrieval Rill groups tabs by what you were doing, creates day-based history episodes, and can find a page from a description. Projects touched by agents are shown on a map with AI-named areas. ### Page questions and tab comparison Ask about the current page or select up to six tabs to produce a comparison table that quotes each page. ### Local data and browser basics Browsing history remains on the Mac, passwords are stored in the Mac Keychain, and sign-ins can be brought over from Chrome, Arc, or Safari. Tab sorting and day summaries can be disabled in Settings. ## Use Cases ### Delegate a coding task while researching From an article, documentation page, or other site, send a request to the appropriate local project and keep reading while the agent works. Review the resulting changes, with edits initially read-only and git changes undoable. ### Research across multiple pages Ask about the page you are reading or compare up to six tabs in a quoted table when evaluating sources, options, or related information. ### Handle a web task with a checkpoint Ask an agent to navigate a site using your existing sign-in. It can work toward an action such as booking or sending, but pauses before payment, ordering, posting, deleting, or other consequential steps unless you clearly tell it to proceed. ### Return to earlier browsing work Use day-based history episodes, descriptive page search, grouped tabs, and the project map to recover pages and agent activity from previous browsing sessions. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What does Rill cost? Rill is free during its beta. Its AI features run through the Claude Code or Codex plan you already have; the source does not specify additional paid plans or usage charges. ### Do I need Claude Code or Codex to use Rill? You need Claude Code or Codex for AI features, but Rill also works as a browser without an agent. Agent features require Claude Code 2.1.261 or later or Codex CLI 0.144.4 or later, installed and signed in. ### Can an agent modify code or complete a purchase without asking? New coding tasks are read-only until you allow edits, and edits in git repositories can be undone. Web tasks stop before payment, ordering, sending, posting, or deleting unless you plainly tell the agent to continue. Agents cannot type into password, card, or one-time-code fields. ### How does Rill handle web and project privacy? History and passwords remain on your Mac, with passwords stored in the Mac Keychain. Project agents browse in tabs with separate website data and without your logins. Web tasks can use your sign-ins within the stated action limits, and page content is treated as untrusted text. ### Which Macs support Rill? Rill runs on Macs with Apple silicon and macOS 14 or later. Browsing works without an agent, while agent features require a supported signed-in Claude Code or Codex installation. ## Quick Facts - **Product type**: Native Mac browser with agent workflows - **Platform**: macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon - **Agent support**: Claude Code 2.1.261+ or Codex CLI 0.144.4+ - **Availability**: Free beta - **Data model**: History and passwords stored on your Mac; passwords use the Mac Keychain - **Website**: rill.love
