## Quick Use

```bash
pip install griptape
```

```python

from griptape.tools import WebScraperTool, CalculatorTool

agent = Agent(tools=[WebScraperTool(), CalculatorTool()])
agent.run("What is the current price of Bitcoin times 2?")
```

## What is Griptape?

Griptape is a Python framework for building AI agents and workflows with enterprise-grade features. It provides structured pipelines, built-in tools, conversation memory, and off-prompt data processing. Unlike simple agent frameworks, Griptape separates computation from LLM calls — heavy data processing happens off-prompt to save tokens and improve reliability. Griptape Cloud offers managed deployment.

**Answer-Ready**: Griptape is an enterprise AI agent framework with structured pipelines, 30+ built-in tools, conversation memory, and off-prompt processing. Separates computation from LLM calls for efficiency. Griptape Cloud for managed deployment. 2k+ GitHub stars.

**Best for**: Teams building production AI agents with complex workflows. **Works with**: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, AWS Bedrock, Google Gemini. **Setup time**: Under 3 minutes.

## Core Features

### 1. Structured Pipelines

```python
from griptape.structures import Pipeline
from griptape.tasks import PromptTask, ToolkitTask

pipeline = Pipeline()
pipeline.add_tasks(
    PromptTask("Research {{ args[0] }}", id="research"),
    PromptTask("Summarize the research above in 3 bullets", id="summarize"),
)
pipeline.run("quantum computing trends 2025")
```

### 2. Built-in Tools (30+)

| Category | Tools |
|----------|-------|
| Web | WebScraper, WebSearch |
| Files | FileManager, CsvExtractor, PdfReader |
| Code | PythonCodeExecutor, SqlClient |
| Data | VectorStore, Calculator |
| API | RestApi, EmailClient |

### 3. Conversation Memory

```python
from griptape.memory.structure import ConversationMemory

agent = Agent(conversation_memory=ConversationMemory())
agent.run("My name is Alice")
agent.run("What is my name?")  # Remembers: Alice
```

### 4. Off-Prompt Processing

```python
from griptape.engines import PromptSummaryEngine

# Large documents processed off-prompt
# Only summaries sent to LLM — saves tokens
agent = Agent(
    tools=[WebScraperTool(off_prompt=True)],
)
```

### 5. Workflows (Parallel Execution)

```python
from griptape.structures import Workflow
from griptape.tasks import PromptTask

workflow = Workflow()
research = PromptTask("Research {{ args[0] }}", id="research")
analyze = PromptTask("Analyze {{ args[0] }}", id="analyze")
combine = PromptTask("Combine research and analysis", id="combine")

workflow.add_task(research)
workflow.add_task(analyze)
combine.add_parents([research, analyze])
workflow.add_task(combine)
workflow.run("AI market trends")
```

## FAQ

**Q: How does off-prompt processing work?**
A: Heavy data (web pages, PDFs, CSVs) is processed by dedicated engines outside the LLM context. Only relevant summaries or chunks are passed to the LLM, saving tokens and improving accuracy.

**Q: Does it support Claude?**
A: Yes, natively supports Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Google, and Azure.

**Q: What is Griptape Cloud?**
A: Managed hosting for Griptape agents with API endpoints, scheduling, and monitoring.
