Products that do what A faster way to switch LLM models does
Really excited to release our universal model router for LLM models. We monitor usage across all your LLM models and now make it even easier to switch between them, no more time rebuilding your app when a new model is released.

Hey HN! We built Lunon to make LLM development way less of a headache. Ever wanted to see how different models handle the same prompt without all the setup hassle? That's what we fixed. Our API lets you compare Claude, GPT, Mistral and others in real-time with just a few lines of code. No more complex infrastructure or managing multiple API connections - we handle all that boring stuff behind the scenes. Plus, you can cut costs by intelligently routing requests to the right model for each task. Use the powerful (expensive) models only when you really need them. If you're building with LLMs…

Hi HN, We’re building https://www.switchpoint.dev – a drop-in replacement for OpenAI’s API that reduces LLM cost by smartly routing across models (e.g., Claude, Gemini, GPT-4) depending on subject and difficulty of the task. Why we built this: LLM costs are spiraling—especially for products doing retrieval, agentic reasoning, or even just high-volume chat. We were frustrated with paying GPT-4 rates when most queries didn’t need it. So we built a router that: - Starts with cheaper/free models (like Llama 8B, 4o-mini, 2.0 flash) - Streams responses and upgrades on failure - Acts…

Scenario: Your company’s IT department says “good news, you have access to azure, aws, openai, mistral, and together AI, here are the API keys”. You think “yippee I can access many models”, but some models like the gpt-oss or Mistral are available on some or all of those platforms? That’s where this app comes in: run it and it will check all the providers that you have configured and then you can search across those providers to see which providers have the model you want available. Built on top of mozilla.ai any-llm library. Check out the link for a GIF showing it in action.

Built a simple web app that tells you which open-source LLMs will work on your hardware. It auto-detects your specs, shows compatible models from Hugging Face, gives realistic performance estimates (tokens/sec), and recommends quantization settings. You can also manually input specs to see "what if I upgraded my RAM?" Made this after wasting time downloading giant models only to find they crawled on my hardware. Hope it saves you some frustration!

Time to first token is 39% faster Agent wall times decrease by 46% No swaps Tracks your resource usage in real-time and adjusts how the model runs so that it works perfectly on your device. Implements KV cache sizing, prefix caching, live RAM pressure management, context trimming, KV quantization, and more. Built a ton of features

Hi HN! I built LLM OneStop (https://www.llmonestop.com), a unified interface for accessing multiple AI language models in one place. The main problem I wanted to solve: constantly switching between different AI platforms, managing multiple subscriptions, and losing conversation context when comparing outputs across models. Key features: Switch between GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama, and other models mid-conversation Compare responses side-by-side Single interface instead of juggling multiple tabs/subscriptions Free tier available to try it out (no credit card needed) "Connect"…

Hey HN — I’m Adil from Katanemo (with Salman, Shuguang, and Meiyu) We previously shared an early version of this project as ArchGW. Based on customer feedback, the scope expanded from “LLM routing and model access” into something broader: delivery infrastructure for agentic applications. We renamed it to Plano and reworked the architecture accordingly. The problem On-the-ground AI practitioners will tell you that calling an LLM is not the hard part. The really hard part is delivering agentic applications to production quickly and reliably, then iterating without rewriting system code every…

I was overspending on GPT-4o. It was really hard to compare different models I could switch to, so I built this LLM comparison tool. It shows leaderboards, pricing, and performance data across 100+ LLMs (including all major providers and open-source models). Key features: - Live pricing comparisons - Benchmark Scores (MMLU, HumanEval, GPQA, etc.) - Context length vs cost analysis - Speed/throughput tests across providers - Quality vs price visualizations - Open source (all data verifiable) Try it out: https://llmstats.com I'd like to know your opinion :) Tech stack: Next.js,…

Over the past couple weeks, l've been really immersed in learning about MCP, a new protocol for equipping any LLM with a set of tools that can run on your own machine or a remote server you control and give all kinds of superpowers to Al agents to do things like search, etc. As part of that research, l've already built one very fleshed-out and useful MCP server that l've shared here (I've added much more to it recently though!), the LLM Gateway MCP Server, which lets you use a big model to delegate to a cheaper model (and many more things in addition to that, like running automated…

As a handsome local AI enjoyer™ you’ve probably noticed one of the big flaws with LLMs: It lies. Confidently. ALL THE TIME. I’m autistic and extremely allergic to vibes-based tooling, so … I built a thing. Maybe it’s useful to you too. The thing: llama-conductor llama-conductor is a router that sits between your frontend (eg: OWUI) & backend (llama.cpp + llama-swap). Local-first but it should talk to anything OpenAI-compatible if you point it there (note: experimental so YMMV). LC is a glass-box that makes the stack behave like a deterministic system, instead of a drunk telling a story about…

At testup.io we have been working for a while to bring artificial intelligence to the field of test automation. Just a few years ago, the primary challenge laid in accurately identifying UI elements following minor structural changes, such as updates to IDs or paths. The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) raised the bar for what it meant to be smart. Now, we anticipate the robot to do lots of things autonomously, such as retry in cases of unresponsiveness or handle minor error reports. A more challenging, but soon expected feature, would involve the test robot navigating your web shop…

Post-Opus 4.6, LLMs feel much better at using bash, code, local files, and tools. So I kept coming back to a simple question: if a model can use a computer reasonably well, why can’t I just give it my broker account, a strategy, and let it trade? My conclusion is that the blocker is not model capability in the abstract. It is the system around the model. A raw LLM breaks on a few practical things almost immediately: • no persistent operating memory across sessions • no trustworthy record of what it did and why • no hard approval boundary before money moves • no cheap always-on monitoring if…
