# Why Parallelize?

> Use cases for running multiple AI agents in parallel

A few reasons parallel workspaces matter:

* **Keep context aligned**: Create dedicated workspaces for threads like `code-review`, `refactor`, and `new-feature`.
* **Run long jobs in the background**: Kick off a slow, high-accuracy model for a deep investigation or refactor.
  * Streams resume after restarts or intermittent connection issues.
  * Shux shows an indicator when the model finishes.
* **Alternative answers**: Use [Best of N](/agents/best-of-n) when you want several independent answers to the same ask.
* **Tangent management**: Fork or create a new workspace for side quests so the main thread stays focused.

In short: parallel workspaces keep long-running, alternative, and tangential work isolated without losing visibility.
