About Warp Terminal
Warp is a modern terminal rebuilt from the ground up with GPU rendering, AI-powered command assistance, and collaborative features. Compatible with all shells (bash, zsh, fish).
**Performance comparison:**
| Terminal | Startup time | Scrollback render | GPU accelerated |
|---------|-------------|------------------|----------------|
| Warp | 120ms | Instant | Yes |
| iTerm2 | 380ms | Laggy at 10K lines | Partial |
| Terminal.app | 220ms | Laggy | No |
| Alacritty | 90ms | Fast | Yes |
**Warp AI (included free):**
Answers natural language questions about commands. In a test of 50 common terminal tasks asked in natural language, Warp AI produced the correct command on the first try 84% of the time.
**Blocks system:**
Each command and its output are grouped together — easy to scroll through a long terminal session and find the output of a specific command. Blocks can be shared with a permalink.
