Ripul

Download

Ripul for your Mac, and your pocket.

Your Mac does the work, so start there: one line in Terminal sets it up. Then ask us for an invitation and the iPhone app is a couple of taps away.

On your Mac

One line, and your Mac is ready.

For a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later) running macOS 26 or later.

Fastest and easiest

First, which are you?

Your agents will run on this Mac

Set this Mac up to do the work

Your projects live here, and this is where the agents work on them. This installs Ripul Host, which runs them quietly in the background, and offers you the Ripul app for talking to them.

  • Agents run here, on your files
  • Reach them from your phone, or from another Mac
  • Leave this Mac on while they work
curl -fsSL https://demo.ripul.io/mac | bash
A teammate invited you, or your agents run elsewhere

Join in from this Mac

Someone has asked you into their work, or your agents already run on another Mac. This installs the Ripul app alone. Nothing runs on this Mac: it is your window onto agents working somewhere else.

  • No agents and no projects on this Mac
  • See and join the conversations you are invited to
  • Close the lid whenever you like
curl -fsSL https://demo.ripul.io/mac/app | bash
  1. Open Terminal

    Press Command-Space, type Terminal and press Return.

  2. Paste your line

    Copy the line from the box that fits you, paste it in and press Return.

  3. Sign in

    The app installs and opens. Sign in and you are done. Nothing to drag and nothing to approve.

Not sure? If nobody invited you and this is the Mac your projects are on, choose the first. You can add Ripul Host to a Mac later.

Or download the apps

Open the download and drag the app into your Applications folder. The first time you open it, your Mac asks whether you trust the app; say yes and it will not ask again. Then sign in with the same Ripul account in both.

Ripul Host The one that does the work. It sits quietly in the background on the Mac where your projects live, and runs your agents. Only the Mac the agents run on needs it. Download Ripul Host
Ripul Where you talk to agents on a Mac: your own, or a teammate's you have been invited to. Everything the iPhone app shows, on a bigger screen. By itself it runs nothing. Download Ripul

On your iPhone

By invitation, through TestFlight.

For an iPhone running iOS 26 or later. TestFlight is Apple's own app for trying apps before they reach the App Store. It is free.

  1. Ask for an invitation

    Send us the email address you use for your Apple Account. That is the one the invitation has to go to.

  2. Get TestFlight

    Install Apple's TestFlight app from the App Store while you wait. It is where Ripul will appear.

  3. Accept and install

    Open our invitation email on your iPhone and tap View in TestFlight, then Install. New versions arrive there too.

No email app on this device? Write to support@ripul.io with your name and your Apple Account email.

Got them both? Sign in.

Use the same Ripul account on your Mac and your phone and they find each other. There is nothing else to set up.
