RocketRide

Features

Feature	Description
Visual Pipeline Builder	Drag, connect, and configure nodes in VS Code — no boilerplate. Real-time observability tracks token usage, LLM calls, latency, and execution. Pipelines are portable JSON — version-controllable, shareable, and runnable anywhere.
High-Performance C++ Runtime	Native multithreading purpose-built for the throughput demands of AI and data workloads. No bottlenecks, no compromises for production scale.
85+ Pipeline Nodes	13 LLM providers, 8 vector databases, OCR, NER, PII anonymization, chunking strategies, embedding models, and more. All nodes are Python-extensible — build and publish your own.
Multi-Agent Workflows	Built-in CrewAI and LangChain support. Chain agents, share memory across pipeline runs, and manage multi-step reasoning at scale.
Coding Agent Ready	RocketRide auto-detects your coding agent — Claude, Cursor, and more. Build, modify, and deploy pipelines through natural language.
TypeScript, Python & MCP SDKs	Integrate pipelines into native apps, expose them as callable tools for AI assistants, or build programmatic workflows into your existing codebase.
Zero Dependency Headaches	Python environments, C++ toolchains, Java/Tika, and all node dependencies managed automatically. Clone, build, run — no manual setup.
One-Click Deploy	Run on Docker, on-prem, or RocketRide Cloud (coming soon). Production-ready architecture from day one — not retrofitted from a demo.

Quick Start

1. Install the extension for your IDE. Search for RocketRide in the extension marketplace:

   

   _{Not seeing your IDE? Open an issue · Download directly}

2. Click the RocketRide extension in your IDE

3. Deploy a server - you'll be prompted on how you want to run the server. Choose the option that fits your setup:

   • Local (Recommended) - This pulls the server directly into your IDE without any additional setup.
   • On-Premises - Run the server on your own hardware for full control and data residency. Pull the image and deploy to Docker or clone this repo and build from source.

Building Your First Pipe

1. All pipelines are recognized with the *.pipe format. Each pipeline and its configuration are JSON objects - but the extension in your IDE will render within our visual builder canvas.

2. All pipelines begin with a source node: webhook, chat, or dropper. For specific usage, examples, and inspiration on how to build pipelines, check out our guides and documentation.

3. Connect input lanes and output lanes by type to properly wire your pipeline. Some nodes like agents or LLMs can be invoked as tools for use by a parent node as shown below:

4. You can run a pipeline from the canvas by pressing the ▶ button on the source node or from the Connection Manager directly.

5. Deploy your pipelines on your own infrastructure.

   • Docker - Download the RocketRide server image and create a container. Requires Docker to be installed.

     docker pull ghcr.io/rocketride-org/rocketride-engine:latest
     docker create --name rocketride-engine -p 5565:5565 ghcr.io/rocketride-org/rocketride-engine:latest
     

   • Local Deployment - Download your preferred runtime as a standalone process from the Deploy page in the Connection Manager.

6. Run your pipelines as standalone processes or integrate them into your existing Python and TypeScript/JS applications utilizing our SDK.

Observability

Selecting running pipelines allows for in-depth analytics. Trace call trees, token usage, memory consumption, and more to optimize your pipelines before scaling and deploying. Find the models, agents, and tools best fit for your task.
