   Ithy AI▲167

   This is another one of my automate-my-life projects - I'm constantly asking the same question to different AIs since there's always the hope of getting a better answer somewhere else. Maybe ChatGPT's answer is too short, so I ask Perplexity. But I realize that's hallucinated, so I try Gemini. That answer sounds right, but I cross-reference with Claude just to make sure. This doesn't really apply to math/coding (where o1 or Gemini can probably one-shot an excellent response), but more to online search, where information is more fluid and there's no "right" search engine + text…

   thisorthis.ai▲135

   Hey HN — I'm Parth, I built thisorthis.ai because I was tired of copy-pasting the same prompt across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini tabs to figure out which model actually gave the best answer. What it does: You type one prompt, pick 2–6 models (we support 47 text models and several image models across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Meta, Amazon, Mistral, Cohere, AI21), and see every response side-by-side. There's also a feature called SmartPick that uses an LLM evaluator to score each response on Clarity, Accuracy, Completeness, and Helpfulness — useful when you're comparing 6 models and…

    A lightweight AI gateway to 100+ models, in TS▲37

    We are Rohit & Ayush, we created Portkey this year March to help tackle some challenges we had seen while building apps based on GPT3, 3.5, 4, and the DevOps principles we brought to the scene to help tackle them. We believe, a solid, performant, and reliable gateway lays the foundation to help build the next level of LLM apps. It decreases excessive reliance on any one company and takes the focus back to building instead of spending time fixing the nitty gritties of different providers and making them work together. Features: Blazing fast (9.9x faster) with a tiny footprint (~45kb…

    ChatHawk▲13

    I kept pasting the same question across several AI platforms to make sure I got the best answer. I found this process time-consuming, and difficult to compare the answers between platforms. So I built ChatHawk. It's a tool that lets you ask a question and have it answered by all the flagship AI models at once. These models are currently Gemini 2.5 pro, GPT-5, Grok-4 and Claude: Sonnet 4. ChatHawk also uses AI to get the best parts from each response to provide a 'Best of All Models' answer. I've found it useful for these use cases: 1. When you want to make sure the answer is right. E.g. for…

    An open-source app to query 10 AI models at oncefree▲5

    Hey HN, My workflow for any complex queries is to ask it in multiple AI chats (Gemini, Claude, o3,..) in parallel and then continue the conversation with the chat response that I found the most useful. I built a simple open source app that queries 10+ AI models at once and summarizes their answers with a selected combiner AI model. There's a GIF in the github repo that shows it in action. You can try it on your local machine: https://github.com/Nexarithm/multi_model_chat If you are interested, I also made a detailed blog post on technical details, feature of the personal…

    Unified access to top AI models, supporting GPT4, Claude and more▲19

    Hello hackernews, I am looking for feedback for Labophase.com which is a app that focuses on returning results from multiple ai models at the same time. I currently support: GPT4-Turbo, Claude-2, Google PaLM2, Llama2, Mistral, and OpenOrca. Working on supporting Gemini soonTM. I built it to solve a couple of personal pains I experienced. After reaching out to a couple of users in r/localllama, seems that people would have similar approach to address hallucination, availability, and comparing ai models. Initial feedback came in with some surprises that I'm hoping to get feedback from the…

    A CLI to use any model in your coding agent▲5

    Hi everyone, I've been working on a CLI tool that can help to easily run any model in claude, Codex, Gemini, Pi, and OpenCode. It's also an API keys manager, supports multiple providers or OpenAI/Claude/Gemini accounts. You can add openrouter, poe, Vercel AI gateways etc. It has a built-in provider that is free to all, which is using Deepseek-V4, no login or API key required, add your own when you're ready. After installation you can try claude instantly (No config, no login): aivo claude Hope it's useful to someone.

    Access Gemini Pro, Claude Pro, ChatGPT Pro models and more for $8/month. Is it another AI/LLMs wrapper? Yes. So why should I use it? Honestly right now there are a lot of other alternatives. But here's why I think it's useful enough to release it in early access: 1. Clear & transparent pricing model. Usage rates is the same is providers api rates + 10%. 2. LLMs responses don't rely on the client connectivity. We use Convex. It's super stable. You can even run multiple chats in parallel. 3. Use it if you like the design :) 4. We have a very clear roadmap. What's next? A desktop app…
