## What this connects

Parallel offers a Task API for automated, structured web research, transforming natural language queries into precise, schema-compliant outputs.

Vendor: https://parallel.ai

## Tools available

**32** tools available. First 12:

- `PARALLEL_ADD_ENRICHMENT_TO_FIND_ALL_RUN` — Add Enrichment to FindAll Run — Tool to add an enrichment to a FindAll run. Use when you need to enrich existing FindAll run results with additional structured data fields. Enrichments define what information to extract from matched entities using a JSON schema.
- `PARALLEL_ADD_RUNS_TO_TASK_GROUP` — Add Runs to Task Group — Tool to initiate multiple task runs within a TaskGroup. Use when you need to execute multiple tasks in parallel within an existing task group.
- `PARALLEL_CANCEL_FIND_ALL_RUN` — Cancel FindAll Run — Tool to cancel an active FindAll run by findall_id. Use when you need to stop a running FindAll operation before it completes. Cannot cancel runs that have already terminated.
- `PARALLEL_CREATE_CHAT_COMPLETIONS` — Create Chat Completions — Tool to get realtime chat completions from Parallel AI. Use when you need conversational AI responses or structured outputs via chat interface. Can be combined with Task API processors for research-grade structured outputs with citations and reasoning.
- `PARALLEL_CREATE_MONITOR` — Create Monitor — Tool to create a web monitor that periodically runs the specified query. The monitor runs once at creation and then continues according to the specified cadence (hourly, daily, weekly, or every two weeks). Use when you need to track changes or developments for a specific search query over time.
- `PARALLEL_CREATE_TASK_GROUP` — Create Task Group — Tool to create a new task group. Use when batching multiple tasks for parallel execution. Task Groups enable grouping and tracking of multiple task runs within a single manageable unit.
- `PARALLEL_CREATE_TASK_RUN` — Create Task Run — Tool to create and initiate a task run. Returns immediately with a run object in status 'queued'. Use when you need to execute tasks asynchronously with Parallel AI processors.
- `PARALLEL_DELETE_MONITOR` — Delete Monitor — Tool to delete a monitor, stopping all future executions. Use when you need to permanently remove a monitor. Deleted monitors can no longer be updated or retrieved.
- `PARALLEL_EXTEND_FIND_ALL_RUN` — Extend FindAll Run — Tool to extend a FindAll run by adding additional matches to the current match limit. Use when you need to increase the number of matches for an existing FindAll run that is still active or has completed.
- `PARALLEL_EXTRACT` — Extract Content from URLs — Tool to extract relevant content from specific web URLs. Use when you need to fetch and extract content from known URLs with optional focusing on specific objectives or search queries.
- `PARALLEL_FETCH_TASK_GROUP_RUNS` — Fetch Task Group Runs — Tool to retrieve task runs from a Task Group as a resumable stream. Use when you need to fetch all runs within a group, optionally including their inputs and outputs. The stream can be resumed using the event_id as a cursor.
- `PARALLEL_FIND_ALL` — Start FindAll Run — Tool to start a FindAll run. Use when you need to discover and match entities based on natural-language objectives. Supports custom conditions, exclusion lists, and webhook callbacks.

## How agents use Parallel

Inside a Definable workflow, Parallel is one of the tools the **Distributor specialist** can call. Example coordination patterns:

- **Researcher → Parallel** — the Researcher (GPT-5.5) pulls context from Parallel (records, threads, documents), synthesises findings, and briefs the rest of the team.
- **Writer → Distributor → Parallel** — the Writer (Claude Opus 4.7) drafts copy in brand voice, the Verifier passes it, then the Distributor writes the result into Parallel (create record, post message, draft email).
- **Designer / Engineer → Distributor → Parallel** — the Designer ships an asset or the Engineer ships a code change, the Distributor delivers it via Parallel (attach file, open PR comment, post status).

The Verifier checks every Parallel call. On rate limit, schema drift, or auth refresh it self-heals and retries — the workflow completes without manual intervention.
