# Batch prediction scripts {: #batch-prediction-scripts }

The Batch prediction scripts are command-line tools for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
They wrap the [Batch Prediction API](batch-prediction-api/index).

To access the scripts, you need a trained model and an active deployment. Then, navigate to the [Predictions API tab](code-py):

* Navigate to the **Deployments** tab and click to select a deployment.
* Select the **Predictions** > [**Prediction API** tab](code-py)
* Select `Batch` as `Predictions Type`

To understand more about how to interact with the code samples, see the [Prediction API Scripting Code](code-py).
