Airbolt AI▲79Hi HN! We love the "backend-less" stack: Stripe for payments, Supabase for data, Clerk for auth. But the moment we add AI features, we're forced to spin up a backend to hide API keys, implement per-user token-based rate limits and graceful degradation, etc. So we built Airbolt. What it does: Drop in our SDK and start making OpenAI calls directly from your frontend. Your keys are AES-256-GCM encrypted on our servers, never exposed to the client. We provide token-based per-user rate limits and origin allow lists to address inference abuse. Short-lived JWTs and bring-your-own-auth are coming…

Hey there! At our company, Bit Complete [1], we use Airtable a bunch for managing operations. We really like how easy it is to throw up a form to collect information, or to build automations for offline processing like aggregations. One challenge we kept running into was how to build more complicated interactive apps using the API, while maintaining fine-grained access control to Airtable data. Airtable ties identity to API access control via API keys, which makes it very hard to build apps with realistic access control needs. So we built AirQL! [2] It’s a utility layer between Airtable’s…

Hey HN, we’ve been working on a way to simplify authentication with third-party APIs. This started because my co-founder andreterron (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=andreterron) and I both built personal dashboards to track different health and productivity metrics, but it’s such an annoying chore to integrate with new APIs. First you read their docs to learn their authentication method, then build and deploy a custom server to receive OAuth callback requests or deal with CORS, register an app with them, then finally you can send the first request to their API. After the…
