Rill: A browser for using Claude Code and Codex from any page

Rill launched a free Mac browser that runs Anthropic's Claude Code or OpenAI's Codex coding agents directly on any web page, using the user's existing Claude Code or Codex plan with no new subscription and no API keys. Rill finds projects from the user's Claude Code and Codex history, keeps history and passwords on the Mac (passwords in the Keychain, unlocked with Touch ID), and instructs agents to stop before any step that pays, orders, sends, posts or deletes and to never type passwords, card numbers or one-time codes. Talking input is in beta via holding Fn, and setup requires downloading Rill, signing in to Claude Code or Codex, and pressing ⌘E on any page.

Rill: A browser for using Claude Code and Codex from any page
Image: source

Runs on the Claude Code or Codex plan you already have.

It starts on any page

An idea used to mean switching to the terminal. Now you say it where you found it. #

And it knows where the work goes

Your browser knows your projects. Each request lands in the right one. #

It finds your projects in your Claude Code and Codex history. There is nothing to set up.

No need to wait

Four agents are at work. You’re reading about a prairie. #

They are in the corner of this page too. Keep scrolling.

A demonstration with sample projects.

While they work

Open as many tabs as you like. They are already grouped by what you were doing. #

Your tab bar stays as you left it.

#

While you browsed this page, the chart got made. A demonstration with a sample project. In Rill it is your own Claude Code or Codex, in your own projects.

At the end of the day

Your history reads like a journal: where you went, what you asked for, what got done. #

Half remember a page? Describe it, and it is found.

After a few weeks

Every project your agents have touched, on one map. #

Finished work is marked Done, wherever it happened.

And out on the web

Need a flight? Ask. Your agent goes looking, in a tab behind yours. #

Find it, compare it, book it, order it. Claude Code or Codex does the browsing, with the sign-ins you already have here.

While you read on

You never go and check. It asks when it needs you, and tells you when it is done. #

  • At work
  • Needs you
  • Done

On the page in front of you

Like what it found? Say “book it,” and watch it work. #

At the last step

It stops before it pays. The last clicks are yours. #

It cannot type a password, a card number or a one-time code, and it is told to stop before any step that pays, orders, sends, posts or deletes.

Beta

Thought of something? Hold Fn and say it. Your coding agent gets to work. #

Talking is in beta. Set it up once in Settings › Talking.

Free. #

  • Runs on the Claude Code or Codex plan you already have.
  • No new subscription.
  • No API keys.

Get started

Three steps. #

  2. Sign in to Claude Code or CodexRill walks you through it. Use either, or both.

  3. Press ⌘E on any pageRill finds your projects for you.

Rill works as a browser without an agent, too.

  • Ask about a pageThe answer opens beside the page, from the agent you already use.

  • Compare tabsPick up to six. Get a table that quotes each page.

  • Agents in a project read the webIn tabs of their own, without your logins. Take one over when you want.

  • And the basicsPasswords in your Keychain, private windows, your sign-ins brought over from Chrome, Arc or Safari.

Privacy

Your history and passwords live on your Mac. #

  • Your agents, your sign-inAI features run the Claude Code or Codex on your Mac, under your own account.

  • History on your MacKept as files on your Mac, for as long as you choose.

  • Passwords in the KeychainSaved in your Mac’s Keychain, unlocked with Touch ID.

  • You choose what runsTab sorting and day summaries can be turned off in Settings.

Questions #

What does it cost? #

Rill is free. AI features run on your Claude Code or Codex plan.

Do I need Claude Code or Codex? #

For the AI features, yes. Browsing works without them.

Will an agent change my code without asking? #

New tasks are read-only until you allow edits, and in git repositories each edit can be undone.

Can an agent buy something by itself? #

A task on the web is told to stop before the step that pays, places an order, sends, posts or deletes, unless you plainly told it to go through with it. It cannot type into password, card or one-time-code fields.

What about prompt injection? #

Agents read pages as untrusted text. In a project, an agent browses in tabs of its own, without your logins, and clicks or types only when you allow it. A task on the web works with your sign-ins, within the limits above. That lowers the risk; it doesn’t remove it.

How do I get updates? #

Rill lets you know when a new version is out.

Which Macs does it run on? #

Macs with Apple silicon, on macOS 14 or later.

Your browsing. Your agents. One window.

Turns out the best interface for agents is the browser.
