I have been working on Octelium for quite a few years now but it was open sourced only by late May 2025. Octelium, as described more in detail in the repo's README, is simply an open source, self-hosted, unified platform for zero trust resource access that is primarily meant to be a modern alternative to corporate VPNs and remote access tools. It can operate as a remote access/corporate VPN (i.e. alternative to Twingate, Tailscale, OpenVPN Access Server, etc...), a ZTNA/BeyondCorp platform (i.e. alterntive to Cloudflare Access, Teleport, Google BeyondCorp, etc...), and it can also…

Hello HN! My co-founder, Vijay and I are excited to open up Oodle for everyone. We used to be observability geeks at Rubrik. Our metrics bills grew like 20x over 4 years. We tried to control spend by getting better visibility, blocking high cardinality labels like pod_id, cluster_id, and customer_id. But that made debugging issues complicated. App engineers hated blocking metrics, and blocking others' code reviews was not fun for platform engineers either! Migrations (and lock-ins) were very painful, the first migration from Influx to Signalfx took 6+ months and the second migration from…

Hey HN! I went to an ATProto meetup last week, and as a burnt-out semi-academic who hates academic publishing, I thought there might be a cool opportunity to build on Octopus (https://www.octopus.ac/), so I got a bit excited over the weekend and built Octosphere. Hopefully some of you find it interesting! Blog post here: https://andreasthinks.me/posts/octosphere/octosphere.html

I built Captan (https://github.com/acossta/captan), a tiny open-source CLI tool for managing startup cap tables. Instead of juggling spreadsheets or paying for expensive SaaS cap table solutions, Captan stores everything in a simple JSON file that you can version-control in Git. It supports: - Stakeholders (founders, employees, investors) - Security classes (Common, Preferred, Option Pool) - Share issuances - Option grants with vesting schedules (monthly, cliff) - SAFEs (record + simulate conversion at a priced round) - Cap table math (Outstanding vs Fully Diluted) -…

Hello HN, I've been working solo on Octelium for the past 5+ years now, (yes, you just read that correctly :|) along with a couple more sub-projects that will hopefully be released soon and I'd love to get some honest opinions from you. Octelium is simply an open source, self-hosted, unified platform for zero trust resource access that is primarily meant to be a modern alternative to corporate VPNs and remote access tools. It is built to be generic enough to not only operate as a ZTNA/BeyondCorp platform (i.e. alternative to Cloudflare Zero Trust, Google BeyondCorp, Zscaler Private…

A bunch of companies that I spoke to had their own claude & codex OTel dashboards that showed spend + seats per month. However, none of the dashboards actually analyzed how the engineers worked with the tools and if there were any areas for improvement! That's why I created https://www.promptster.ai. Managers get aggregate level view of code quality and how that ties with team workflows (nothing on a per-engineer level). While engineers get personalized coaching on how they can save tokens while keeping output high. We also have a tool built for individuals to test their local…

Hi HN, we're Kiran and Vijay! Over the past two years, we have built a columnar storage engine for observability: logs, metrics, and traces. Today, it's exciting for us to show what we've built on top of that foundation: LLM Agent Observability. Given how non-deterministic agents are, storing all traces without sampling was critical for us. But these traces tend to be in the MBs, sometimes GBs - we needed to store them inexpensively. We also needed the queries and analyses to be fast. To meet both these goals, we store them in S3 in our own parquet-like file format, and query them using AWS…

Web tool for tracking and forecasting capitalization tables

Hi HN, I run a small ecommerce shop and, until recently, spent way too many evenings copy-pasting supplier invoices into Excel so my books stayed clean and my expense tracking was granular. It finally hit me that I’d rather invest that time in code than in Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V, so I built ParsePoint.app. Why I built it • Manual invoice entry was swallowing 4 hours every month. • Accounting software APIs felt heavyweight for my use-case; I really just wanted clean rows in a spreadsheet. • I love tinkering with AI models and needed an excuse to spin one up in production. What it does 1. Upload a…

I am Marc, the co-founder of octomind.dev. I am a former chess player turned machine learner turned entrepreneur. I always wanted to develop products based on the latest AI research. I did it at my previous startup with computer vision and now at octomind.dev with LLMs/agents. Octomind is an AI-powered end-to-end testing platform for web apps. You enter your URL, and we will auto-generate, run, and auto-maintain UI tests. My co-founder Daniel and I used to work together in our previous AI startup. We had never-ending problems with end-to-end testing. We tried many frameworks and tools…

Hi HN, We’re the team at MyDecisive.ai, and today we’re giving developers a peek at Octant — point-and-click control and visibility for your OpenTelemetry. You've likely felt the pain of the "observability tax," especially if you manage K8S clusters. The modern standard is to instrument everything with OpenTelemetry, but piping all those rich OTLP logs, metrics, and traces straight to a SaaS vendor (Datadog, Splunk, Honeycomb) gets expensive fast. You end up paying massive ingestion and storage costs for noisy, low-value data just so it's searchable when something breaks. With Octant you get…

We've recently made our product, ozma.io, open-source. It's a CRM/ERP platform for building enterprise systems. We believe that AI will soon handle implementing most of the boilerplate and UIs in the specialized business software. Just look at what lovable.dev does today! Soon products which make creating business software easier for developers will become obsolete, or transform into "libraries" to be used by AIs. We are losing this race, so we go the second route — publish everything and go on building other products on top of it. GitHub repo URL:…

Hi, I'm building an open-source self-hostable document extraction tool powered by LLM. There are popular data extraction tools and OCR tools in the market. None of them are open source. Most accounting firms, law firms, insurance, back office, and real-estate folks would like to use a tool like this. You can add PDF documents, Images, and audio files and create columns to answer questions on documents or extract information into tabular format.
