OpenPipe is an open-source prompt workshop that includes a feature for translating prompts between different language models. Users can quickly convert prompts from GPT-3.5 to Llama 2 or Claude 1/2 compatible formats.… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Automatically convert your GPT-3.5 prompt to Llama 2 launched in 2023; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

   Finetune LLaMA-7B on commodity GPUs using your own text▲449

   I've been playing around with https://github.com/zphang/minimal-llama/ and https://github.com/tloen/alpaca-lora/blob/main/finetune.py, and wanted to create a simple UI where you can just paste text, tweak the parameters, and finetune the model quickly using a modern GPU. To prepare the data, simply separate your text with two blank lines. There's an inference tab, so you can test how the tuned model behaves. This is my first foray into the world of LLM finetuning, Python, Torch, Transformers, LoRA, PEFT, and Gradio. Enjoy!

   LLM-aided OCR – Correcting Tesseract OCR errors with LLMs▲479

   Almost exactly 1 year ago, I submitted something to HN about using Llama2 (which had just come out) to improve the output of Tesseract OCR by correcting obvious OCR errors [0]. That was exciting at the time because OpenAI's API calls were still quite expensive for GPT4, and the cost of running it on a book-length PDF would just be prohibitive. In contrast, you could run Llama2 locally on a machine with just a CPU, and it would be extremely slow, but "free" if you had a spare machine lying around. Well, it's amazing how things have changed since then. Not only have models gotten a lot better,…

    A fully open-source (Apache 2.0)implementation of llama▲158

    We believe that AI should be fully open source and part of the collective knowledge. The original LLaMA code is GPL licensed which means any project using it must also be released under GPL. This "taints" any other code and prevents meaningful academic and commercial use. Lit-LLaMA solves that for good.

    YourGPT 2.0▲215

    Today we are launching YourGPT 2.0, an update focused on making support, sales, and operational workflows work together more smoothly in one system. This release improves how workflows are built, how the platform connects to external tools, and how context is maintained across long, multi-channel interactions. AI Studio now makes it much easier to create and refine workflows. You can describe the process you want in natural language and the system generates the full workflow for you. It can also help debug issues by showing what happened at each step and explaining where things went off…

    Superflows – open-source AI Copilot for SaaS products▲37

    Henry, Matt and James here – we’re building an open source toolkit that makes it easy to integrate an LLM-powered copilot that talks to your API into software products. It works by calling API endpoints which you choose to expose to it. This lets the chatbot complete tasks within your software in response to natural language queries. It’s also open source, so you don’t have to send user data to another 3rd party. We support Llama 2, but we haven’t fine-tuned Llama 2 yet (coming soon) so highest accuracy is seen with GPT-4 or fine-tuned GPT-3.5 (much faster). We started working together 2…

    Fine-tuned Llama 3.2 3B to match 70B models for local transcripts▲31

    I wrote a small local tool to transcribe audio notes (Whisper/Parakeet). Code: https://github.com/bilawalriaz/lazy-notes I wanted to process raw transcripts locally without OpenRouter. Llama 3.2 3B with a prompt was decent but incomplete, so I tried SFT. I fine-tuned Llama 3.2 3B to clean/analyze dictation and emit structured JSON (title, tags, entities, dates, actions). Data: 13 real memos → Kimi K2 gold JSON → ~40k synthetic + gold; keys canonicalized. Chutes.ai (5k req/day). Training: RTX 4090 24GB, ~4h, LoRA (r=128, α=128, dropout=0.05), max seq 2048,…

    A tool to benchmark LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude, local/self-hosted)▲55

    I recently built a small open-source tool to benchmark different LLM API endpoints — including OpenAI, Claude, and self-hosted models (like llama.cpp). It runs a configurable number of test requests and reports two key metrics: • First-token latency (ms): How long it takes for the first token to appear • Output speed (tokens/sec): Overall output fluency Demo: https://llmapitest.com/ Code: https://github.com/qjr87/llm-api-test The goal is to provide a simple, visual, and reproducible way to evaluate performance across different LLM providers, including…

    TransLite▲98

    Hello ! David from Spain here :) I built TransLite because I was tired of breaking my flow every time I needed to translate something before sending it. The usual workflow was: copy → open a browser tab → paste → translate → copy again → paste back. I've created a small macOS menubar app that lets you translate the current clipboard instantly using a keyboard shortcut, in any app. It works locally and supports using your own OpenAI / Claude API key. It’s intentionally simple — no accounts, no tracking, no subscriptions. Happy to answer any questions. Best regards, David

    A local version of ChatGPT Code Interpreter, using GPT-4 or Llama 2▲6

    Hi HN! I wanted to share my freshly finished open-source project. It is similar to ChatGPT Code Interpreter, but the interpreter runs locally and it can use open-source models like Llama 2. It allows you to work with sensitive data without uploading it to the cloud. Either you use a local LLM (like Llama 2), or an API (like GPT-4). For the latter case, there is an approval mechanism in the UI, which separates your local data from the remote services. I would be very interested in your valuable feedback!

It’s built on OpenTelemetry, aiming to reduce the complexities that come with observing the behavior and usage of your LLM stack. *Beyond Basic Text Generation:* OpenLIT isn’t restricted to just text and chatbot outputs. It now includes automatic…

    Open-source ETL framework to sync data from SaaS tools to vector stores▲63

    Hey hacker news, we launched a few weeks ago as a GPT-powered chatbot for developer docs, and quickly realized that the value of what we’re doing isn’t the chatbot itself. Rather, it’s the time we save developers by automating the extraction of data from their SaaS tools (Github, Zendesk, Salesforce, etc) and helping transform it to contextually relevant chunks that fit into GPT’s context window. A lot of companies are building prototypes with GPT right now and they’re all using some combination of Langchain/Llama Index + Weaviate/Pinecone + GPT3.5/GPT4 as their stack for…

    Local LLM Notepad – run a GPT-style model from a USB stick▲40

    What it is A single 45 MB Windows .exe that embeds llama.cpp and a minimal Tk UI. Copy it (plus any .gguf model) to a flash drive, double-click on any Windows PC, and you’re chatting with an LLM—no admin rights, Cloud, or network. Why I built it Existing “local LLM” GUIs assume you can pip install, pass long CLI flags, or download GBs of extras. I wanted something my less-technical colleagues could run during a client visit by literally plugging in a USB drive. How it works PyInstaller one-file build → bundles Python runtime, llama_cpp_python, and the UI into a single PE. On first launch, it…

    PromptL, a templating language designed for LLM prompting▲7

    Hey HN! We just launched PromptL: a templating language built to simplify writing complex prompts for LLMs like GPT-4 and Claude. Why PromptL? Creating dynamic prompts for LLMs can get tricky, even with standardized APIs that use lists of messages and settings. While these formats are consistent, building complex interactions with custom logic or branching paths can quickly become repetitive and hard to manage as prompts grow. PromptL steps in to make this simple. It allows you to define and manage LLM conversations in a readable, single-file format, with support for control flow and…

    I coded my own JSON translation tool to easily localize my side project▲43

    Hi HN, I’m Joan, the developer of Quicklang. I made this app to easily translate and keep in sync all my localization JSON files for my side projects. While searching online for a similar tool, I only found enterprise solutions that do not allow direct editing of JSON files. I used to use ChatGPT to translate the JSON translation file changes before coding Quicklang. However, I realized that ChatGPT only allows you to input short content for translation into another language (even if you provide a .json file), and each time I had to request translations for one language at a time. So, I…
