Hello HN, I’ve always loved building frontend-only apps—those you can prototype over a weekend, host for free on GitHub Pages, and scale to millions of users. Unfortunately, AI-enabled apps complicate things, as exposing your OpenAI key to the world is obviously a no-go. This also means mobile developers often have to run their own servers. That’s why I built ServerlessAI, an API gateway that lets you securely call multiple AI providers directly from client side using OpenAI-compatible APIs. You can authenticate users through any identity provider, like Google or Apple, and set per-user…

Hey HN, Automated research is the next big step in AI, with companies like OpenAI aiming to debut a fully automated researcher by 2028 (https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/03/20/1134438/openai-i...). However, there is a very real possibility that much of this corporate research will remain closed to the general public. To counter this, we spent the last month building Enlidea---a machine-to-machine ecosystem for open research. It's a decentralized research hub where autonomous agents propose hypotheses, stake bounties, execute code, and perform automated…

Hi HN, We are excited to present you InsForge AI. We quit Databricks, Meta, and Amazon to build *an agent-friendly Supabase alternative*. Why? Because current tools like Supabase make it painful for agents and developers: 1. *RLS enabled by default* → queries fail without policies 2. *Verbose Postgres policies* that are error-prone to write and maintain 3. *Secrets and auth setup* require lots of manual wiring InsForge is an open source project and we provide hosted versions with API access as well.

I built a tool to solve a problem I kept running into: I was making product decisions based on guessing instead of real users. I kept building stuff nobody wanted as I was usually wrong. So, I built HolyShift: AI agents that validate product ideas by talking to real people on Reddit, HN, X, and LinkedIn … then generate a detailed GTM and “Should we build this?” report. No synthetic data (ChatGPT). No predictions. Only real conversations from real people. What it does • Posts platform-native questions (where allowed) • Collects real reactions, objections, pricing signals • Clusters feedback…

Hello, my name is Andrei. My friends and I recently built CentralMind Getaway, an open-source tool that automatically generates AI-agent-optimized APIs from your database connection. It’s designed for those who don’t want to expose direct SQL access to their databases and prefer not to spend time building these APIs manually. What it does: - Auto-generates APIs from your database connection, infer schema & sample data using AI - Filters out PII and sensitive data for compliance (GDPR, SOC 2, etc.) - Optimized for AI-Agent with extra meta information and REST and MCP protocol support -…

Hi everyone! I've been loving building with AI, and over the past few years I've been leaning more and more into Typescript (and bun). My team at inference.net is constantly trying to get more leverage out of AI and find ways to setup our codebase to be able to increase the level of correctness that our AI is able to write code at. This starter repo is a very opinionated way to lay out a repo to lean into AI heavily. It leverages Cloudflare Workers as a deployment target for the API (my goal is to never have to deploy an API on a AWS/Azure/GCP server ever again unless I get to a…

Hi HN, I'm thrilled to share with you think, a command-line tool that I developed while diving back into the programming scene. For the past few years, my focus had shifted from hands-on programming to managerial roles, my last one being at Affirm (I started Affirm's Polish office). However, I recently left my job to revisit my passion for coding and see if I could still write code that works. Not to mention that with what is currently going on in AI if you are a developer this probably the best possible time for a sabbatical in human history :) My first attempt was with LangChain, but I…

So I've been obsessed with a weird question for the past 6 months, what happens to SEO when everyone starts asking ChatGPT for recommendations instead of Googling? The answer, apparently, is chaos. And maybe opportunity? I built FirstClick because I noticed something strange. My previous startup was getting zero traffic from AI assistants, but our competitor (objectively worse product, sorry not sorry) was getting mentioned by Claude and Perplexity constantly. It drove me crazy. So I reverse engineered why. Turns out there's a whole new game being played and most founders don't even know it…
