24 alternatives to Eunomia, Open Source Data Governance for LLM-Based Applications

Like many of you, we've spent the last two years dealing with requests to sprinkle LLM-powered features everywhere. One recurring problem we faced in almost every project was related to data governance. In most cases, it was extremely hard to implement the needed granular control over the retrieved data. We developed custom solutions each time, but when we realized most of the solutions could be reused in subsequent projects, we started thinking about creating a modular framework. Today we're releasing that framework! We've already built some modules using open-source solutions such as…

    Hey HN, I am the founder of Tensorlake. Prototyping LLM applications have become a lot easier, building decision making LLM applications that work on constantly updating data is still very challenging in production settings. The systems engineering problems that we have seen people face are - 1. Reliably process ingested content in real time if the application is sensitive to freshness of information. 2. Being able to bring in any kind of model, and run different parts of the pipeline on GPUs and CPUs. 3. Fault Tolerance to ingestion spike, compute infrastructure failure. 4. Scaling compute,…

    Synthetic data generation is an essential step in training and evaluating LLMs/Agents/RAG pipelines, but tooling around this is still lacking. We're introducing Curator, an open-source library designed to streamline the data curation process. While there are many libraries to prompt LLMs, the semantics of generating synthetic data is different from prompting. For example, we need to process a large number of prompts (sometimes in millions or more) while accepting some failures, utilize several stages of prompting, incorporate human feedback, and filter out bad data using verifiers…

    A few months ago I was working on a flight search engine that would include pet transport costs (I know a few by hearth but storing them and make the calculations in the UI would be nice) While I was collecting pet pricing from several airlines I strugled to extract data in a common format without hallucinated values. That's when I thought: What if I use multiple LLMs and take the most common response to improve accuracy? This idea became this new project. You provide your documents, an SQLModel schema, an LLM provider, plus what you'd like to extract and Extrai does the rest. Including…

    KillSaaS is my answer to subscription software in the AI era. I'm building this because I believe small teams can use modern AI tools to create free alternatives to giants like Figma and DocuSign in weeks, not years. We're creating a platform where developers vote on which SaaS to replace, then build it together as open source. wdyt?

    Hey HN, A few friends and I have spent the past 6 years or so developing a way to write data transformation code in a way that can easily adapt to changes in logic or data elements both upstream and downstream without the need major refactoring, regression testing, or re-orchestration. We decided to open source the project about two months ago and published a CLI tool after we realized how big of a task it was to take on incumbents like stored procedures, dbt, and psyspark. It is early days for our community and we are looking to grow and engage with others to poke holes and contribute…

    We’re building an open-source tool that makes it easy to expose secure, LLM-optimized APIs on top of your structured data—without manually designing endpoints or worrying about compliance. AI agents and LLM-powered applications need structured access to data, but traditional APIs and databases weren’t built with AI workloads in mind. Our tool automatically generates APIs that: - Filter out PII & sensitive data to comply with GDPR, CPRA, SOC 2, and other regulations. - Provide traceability & auditing, so AI apps aren’t black boxes, and security teams stay in control. - Optimize for AI…

    Hey HN, We’re excited to share PySpur, an open-source tool that provides a graph-based interface for building, debugging, and evaluating LLM workflows. Why we built this: Before this, we built several LLM-powered applications that collectively served thousands of users. The biggest challenge we faced was ensuring reliability: making sure the workflows were robust enough to handle edge cases and deliver consistent results. In practice, achieving this reliability meant repeatedly: 1. Breaking down complex goals into simpler steps: Composing prompts, tool calls, parsing steps, and branching…

    Hey HN, I've been working on something cool that I wanted to share with you all. It's called Viewpoint, an analytics tool for LLMs like OpenAI, Anthropic models, and Gemini. The idea came from the constant flood of new LLM models and the need to figure out which ones work best for my projects without breaking the bank. With viewpoint, I can track token usage, costs, latency(WIP), and traffic over time, making it easier to compare different models and see which ones perform best and save money. The tool works asynchronously, so it doesn't add any latency to your LLM requests, and you have…

    I wanted to learn more about RAG implementations, so I built something to solve the constant digging through manuals whenever we play a game. It's fairly simplistic, but actually has worked pretty well for some of these conflicts. Everythings Open Source on GitHub if you're curious (or have ideas), and I'd love to hear feedback from fellow boardgamers!

It harnesses the Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) capabilities of LlamaIndex to provide answers about SEC 10-K & 10-Q documents. The enthusiastic reception we received on Product Hunt prompted us to open-source our project. Now, developers can use our project either as a reference or they can fork it entirely for their LLM-powered applications. We at LlamaIndex built this to help developers move their LLM app ideas from prototype to production. We're very…

    Hey HN! We are building Thand, an open-source, distributed platform for Just-in-Time (JIT) access, authorization (PAM), and provisioning. Why? I’ve been at various companies now; either having to raise tickets, waiting on internal processes to get access to systems, resources or SaaS tools. Or, having extremely elevated accounts all in one place and as a single point of failure when services go down just as you need them. None of the available PAM tools seemed easy to work with, so it got me seeking an alternative. What is Thand? Thand is a lightweight, open source and self-hosted agent that…

    Hi HN, I've been working with LLMs in production for a while both as a solo dev building apps for clients and working at an AI startup. The one thing that always was a pain was to pay OpenAI/Gemini/Anthropic a few dollars a month just for me to say "test" or have a CI runner validate some UI code. So I built this server called ChunkBack, that mocks the popular llm provider's functionality but allows you to type in a deterministic language: `SAY "cheese"` or `TOOLCALL "tool_name" {} "tool response"` I've had to work in some test environments and give good results for experimenting…
