Products that do what Hadmean – The easiest and most efficient internal tool generator does
Hi HN! I am excited to share Hadmean with you all for feedback and early adoption. What: Hadmean is an open-source, no-code internal tool generator. Why: Most internal tool generators make you build from the ground up i.e you get a blank canvas, drag and drop and wire components to satisfy your business requirement. This I believe has many problems. - They require some technical know-how. - They require some learning curve. - They require time to build and maintain. - You duplicate a lot of business logic already in your database. How: Hadmean attempts internal tool generation with a new…

Hey HN, This is Adrian and David, and we're excited (and nervous) to show you basetool (https://basetool.io). Basetool helps companies view and manage all their data in one place. Companies have data in tons of places like BI tools, data warehouses, 3rd party services, and their databases. However, because the tools are not connected, it's a hassle to have visibility across the whole organization and even more difficult to safely share that data with the team or external collaborators. The vision is to give basetool access to your data source and get a tool that way above a…

Hello Hacker News community! I'm currently working in financial risk management within the banking sector, and I began my career as a Data Science specialist. For quite some time, my friend and I have been developing a small pet project just for fun. This tool has repeatedly helped us save time when testing various hypotheses and machine learning models. The core idea is to combine different scripts—created in various programming languages and virtual environments—within a minimalist graphical interface. Whether you're building models, running a local neural network, or sending requests to…

Hi, I have been building small AI Agents for quite some time now using various frameworks and one thing that always bugged me was that iterating on small things like prompts, flows, tools etc always took a code change + deployment of the app. While the prompt part can be solved with Langfuse I haven't found a good way to keep the flow management remote (and open source). Lately I have been working with Genkit (https://github.com/firebase/genkit) and love how modular it is. So I thought why not build a UI builder on top of that that can handle simple flows, prompts and…

Hi It's Logan (op) and David, we are launching our first open source Python SDK generator with other languages to come :) We built this because we believe that the OpenAPI Generator project is a mess and simply doesn't work for most users (us included). Additionally, proprietary generators miss the mark for complex use cases, and restrict developers from doing what they do best: writing code. On top of all that they force you into proprietary configuration layers for many desirable features which increases vendor lock in and pulls you further away from your API spec as the source of truth.…

Hi HN! My name is Yossi, and I'm a solo indie maker. SEO tools are super pricey and free tools often fall short, leaving most users to costly subscription-based tools. So, I built SEO Stuff, a keyword tool that uses a credit-based system for builders like me who use SEO more sporadically. Have a great day!

Hey HN, After GPT-3 created waves in the tech industry, a lot of AI tools were emerging and with that, some AI website builders But the results seemed way too generic to us. It felt like the developers were rushing to catch the wave instead of building a proper tool We took our time, did months of RnD and finally came up with something better than what others in the market are doing. It’s got better design output. While it’s still in beta, I wanted to show HN what we did. Will appreciate the feedback when you guys try it out. Here is the link to signup for the beta:…

Hello Hacker News, I often hear people saying "all build-systems suck", an opinion I have been sharing for years, and this is the motivation for this project. I finally got the opportunity to make it open-source, and here it is. In a few words, it is like make, except it can be comfortably used even in big projects using HPC (with millions of jobs, thousands of them running in parallel). The major differences are that: - dependencies are automatically tracked (no need to call gcc -M and the like, no need to be tailored to any specific tool, it just works) by spying disk activity - it is…

Hey HN! When I started looking into LLMs and agents for software development and introducing them at work, I quickly realised that a person new to the topic faces a real barrage: - all the hype (AGI, engineers getting replaced by AI etc.) - conflicting opinions in virtually every discussion—for every person saying they’ve 10x-ed their productivity, there is a comment decrying LLMs as an utter failure - a lot of jargon (MoE, MCP, RAG, distillation, quantisation etc. etc.) - a profusion of models, IDEs/IDE extensions, CLI agents, other tools etc. Sorting through all of this can be quite…

For the last 6 months, I've been building ORUS Builder, an open-source AI code generator. My goal was to fix the biggest issue I have with tools like v0, Lovable, etc. – they generate broken, non-compiling code that needs hours of debugging. ORUS Builder is different. It uses a "Compiler-Integrity Generation" (CIG) protocol, a set of cognitive validation steps that run before the code is generated. The result is a 99.9% first-time compilation success rate in my tests. The workflow is simple: 1.Describe an app in a single prompt. 2.It generates a full-stack application…

In the context of a production line, the role of a project management tool is to maintain efficiency in the process. The next step of optimisation is to continuously identify and improve the machines involved. I am building Shram for humans with this in mind. I would love your feedback to build this into something that could replace your current tool! Thank you! :)

Hi HN, While building RAG agents, I noticed a lot of token budget was wasted on formatting overhead (HTML tags, JSON structure, whitespace). Existing solutions felt too heavy (often requiring torch/transformers), so I wrote this lightweight, zero-dependency library to solve it. It includes strategies for context packing, PII redaction, and tool output compression. Benchmarks show it can save ~15% of tokens with negligible latency overhead (<0.5ms). Happy to answer any questions!

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…
