24 alternatives to Meddle
Hello HN, I’m Michele. I’m building Meddle because connecting hardware stuff is still way harder than it should be. Every factory I worked with had the same problem: robots, PLCs, CNCs, sensors, all speaking different protocols, all locked in silos. Getting data out meant custom scripts, fragile gateways, or expensive vendor lock-ins. What I built: Meddle is a data-driven IoT platform that connects industrial machines to any destination. It normalizes machine data, enriches it, and streams it where you need it: cloud, MES, analytics, or custom pipelines. The use case: Teams use Meddle to: -…

Every data pipeline job I had to tackle required quite a few components to set up: - One tool to ingest data - Another one to transform it - If you wanted to run Python, set up an orchestrator - If you need to check the data, a data quality tool Let alone this being hard to set up and taking time, it is also pretty high-maintenance. I had to do a lot of infra work, and while this being billable hours for me I didn’t enjoy the work at all. For some parts of it, there were nice solutions like dbt, but in the end for an end-to-end workflow, it didn’t work. That’s why I decided to build an…

Hey HN! This is Steve from integrate.ai (https://integrate.ai). Our platform unlocks a range of machine learning and analytics capabilities on data that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to access due to privacy, confidentiality, or technical hurdles. Traditional approaches to machine learning and analytics require centralization and aggregation of data sources. Given the increasingly distributed nature of data - across organizations, across borders, and across connected devices - centralizing the data necessary for machine learning and analytics often requires complex…

Hi, I am Krishna Thota. I am building an open source integration and data platform(https://cptn.io). The product is MIT licensed and the repo is at https://github.com/cptn-io/el-cptn. I have started on my startup journey an year ago and launched a monitoring platform called DevRaven. Unfortunately the product did not takeoff as expected. That story is for another day. But during the course of building the product, I have built several integrations leveraging MQs and Cloud Functions. While building and deploying Cloud Functions for happy paths is easy, I had to…

Hi HN, Three months ago, I took a job at Baseten to help craft and document an application builder that lets data scientists build full-stack, production-ready applications around their ML models without worrying about containers, Flask, or React. From my first day, everyone was focused on what would happen today: opening up our public beta. I’m super excited to see what you build with Baseten. If you want to take Baseten for a full-speed test drive, follow along with this tutorial, where you can build and deploy an application in 20 minutes:…

Hello Hacker News! We're Yangqing, Xiang and JJ from lepton.ai. We are building a platform to run any AI models as easy as writing local code, and to get your favorite models in minutes. It's like container for AI, but without the hassle of actually building a docker image. We built and contributed to some of the world's most popular AI software - PyTorch 1.0, ONNX, Caffe, etcd, Kubernetes, etc. We also managed hundreds of thousands of computers in our previous jobs. And we found that the AI software stack is usually unnecessarily complex - and we want to change that. Imagine if you are a…

Hey HN, I'm Bo, cofounder of Fleak.ai. Over the past several months, our team has been hard at work developing Fleak, a data API backend builder, and we would love your feedback on what we've built so far. What Fleak Does: Fleak simplifies the process of building and deploying API backends. It features a no-code IDE UI that lets you create workflows by chaining together steps such as native SQL transformations, calling LLM models, AWS Lambda functions, and more. With a single click, you can deploy these workflows to a production endpoint (during test, we are able to handle 5000 QPS without…

I got tired of the overhead required to run even a simple data analysis - cloud setup, ETL pipelines, orchestration, cost monitoring - so I built a fully local data-stack/IDE where I can write SQL/Py, run it, see results, and iterate quickly and interactively. You get data lake like catalog, zero-ETL, lineage, versioning, and analytics running entirely on your machine. You can import from a database, webpage, CSV, etc. and query in natural language or do your own work in SQL/Pyspark. Connect to local models like Gemma or cloud LLMs like Claude for querying and analysis. You…
