24 alternatives to OntoCast – ontology-assisted KG generation
Hey HN, I'm excited to announce a new release of OntoCast — an open-source framework for extracting semantic triples and building knowledge graphs (KG) from unstructured documents (PDF, JSON, Markdown, and more). Before extracting facts, OntoCast automatically selects or creates a relevant ontology and iteratively refines it, leading to much more accurate and context-aware fact extraction. This is especially valuable for cross-domain or complex documents where a static ontology falls short. - Agentic workflow: Uses LLMs (OpenAI/Ollama) to drive the extraction and ontology refinement…

Hi HN! My latest side project is knowledge graph that maps the French culinary network using data extracted from restaurant reviews from LeFooding.com. The project uses LLMs to extract structured information from unstructured text. Some technical aspects you may be interested in: - Used structured generation to reliably parse unstructured text into a consistent schema - Tested multiple models (Mistral-7B-v0.3, Llama3.2-3B, gpt4o-mini) for information extraction - Created an interactive visualization using gephi-lite and Retina (WebGL) - Built (with Claude) a simple Flask web app to clean and…

I shipped a wiki layer for AI agents that uses markdown + git as the source of truth, with a bleve (BM25) + SQLite index on top. No vector or graph db yet. It runs locally in ~/.wuphf/wiki/ and you can git clone it out if you want to take your knowledge with you. The shape is the one Karpathy has been circling for a while: an LLM-native knowledge substrate that agents both read from and write into, so context compounds across sessions rather than getting re-pasted every morning. Most implementations of that idea land on Postgres, pgvector, Neo4j, Kafka, and a dashboard. I…

I built this tool because I wanted a way to just take a bunch of URLs or domains, and query their content in RAG applications. It takes away the pain of crawling, extracting content, chunking, vectorizing, and updating periodically. I'm curious to see if it can be useful to others. I meant to launch this six months ago but life got in the way...

TrustGraph now supports automatic knowledge graph construction guided by OWL ontologies. You provide an ontology (OWL/Turtle format or build one in the Workbench editor), point it at your documents, and it extracts entities and relationships that conform to your schema. The problem this solves: generic GraphRAG approaches extract whatever relationships an LLM thinks are relevant, which often misses domain-specific semantics. If you're working in healthcare, finance, or intelligence analysis, you likely already have ontologies (or can adapt standards like SOSA, FIBO, etc.) that define…

Hey HN! We're Paul, Preston, and Daniel from Zep. We've just open-sourced Graphiti, a Python library for building temporal Knowledge Graphs using LLMs. Graphiti helps you create and query graphs that evolve over time. Knowledge Graphs have been explored extensively for information retrieval. What makes Graphiti unique is its ability to build a knowledge graph while handling changing relationships and maintaining historical context. At Zep, we build a memory layer for LLM applications. Developers use Zep to recall relevant user information from past conversations without including the entire…

I've built an advanced RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline from scratch to demystify the complex mechanics of modern LLM-powered Question Answering systems. This repository features: -- An implementation of a sub-question query engine from scratch to answer complex user questions. -- Illustrative explanations that unveil the inner workings of the system. -- An analysis of the challenges I faced while working with the system, like prompt engineering and cost estimation. -- Qualitative comparison with similar frameworks like LlamaIndex, offering a broader perspective. Key Takeaway:…

We've open-sourced Klarity - a tool for analyzing uncertainty and decision-making in LLM token generation. It provides structured insights into how models choose tokens and where they show uncertainty. What Klarity does: - Real-time analysis of model uncertainty during generation - Dual analysis combining log probabilities and semantic understanding - Structured JSON output with actionable insights - Fully self-hostable with customizable analysis models The tool works by analyzing each step of text generation and returns a structured JSON: - uncertainty_points: array of {step, entropy,…

Hey HN! We're building an open-source CMS designed to help creators with every part of the content production pipeline. We're showing our tiny first step: A tool designed to take in a Twitter username and produce an "identity card" based on it. We expect to use an approach similar to [Constitutional AI] with an explicit focus on repeatability, testability, and verification of an "identity card." We think this approach could be used to create finetuning examples for training changes, or serve as inference time insight for LLMs, or most likely a combination of the two. The tooling we're…

A great way to enhance chatbots is to allow them to look up information for context, typically using a vectordb. If you have writings you would like to share with others, you can offer a server that allows others to do semantic lookup, and that way anyone can have a chatbot which can pull from your writing. The goal of this project is to have a protocol that makes that easy. Strictly speaking, the protocol is for semantic retrieval and doesn't require using LLMs although LLMs are the motivating application. For far more details and how to get a demo up and running, see the readme.

Hey HN! Over the weekend (leaning heavily on Opus 4.5) I wrote Jargon - an AI-managed zettelkasten that reads articles, papers, and YouTube videos, extracts the key ideas, and automatically links related concepts together. Demo video: https://youtu.be/W7ejMqZ6EUQ Repo: https://github.com/schoblaska/jargon You can paste an article, PDF link, or YouTube video to parse, or ask questions directly and it'll find its own content. Sources get summarized, broken into insight cards, and embedded for semantic search. Similar ideas automatically cluster together. Each…

Excited to share a project I’ve been building for months! Would love to receive honest feedback :) My motivation: AI is clearly going to be the interface for data. But earlier attempts (text-to-SQL, etc.) fell short — they treated it like magic. The space has matured: teams now realize that AI + data needs structure, context, and rules. So I built a product to help teams deliver “chat with data” solutions fast with full control and observability (agent tracing, quality scores, etc) — am I wrong? The product allows you to connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context…

Largemem▲10We’re building Largemem, (https://largemem.com) a shared knowledge base where groups upload and maintain a common set of documents (PDFs, scans, audio) and query them conversationally. Each group has its own persistent knowledge base. We parse content into chunks, extract entities, and combine vector search with a lightweight knowledge graph, so answers can synthesize information across multiple documents and across the group’s shared context - not just retrieve isolated snippets. We would love to hear your feedback!

Hey HN, This is Kanon 2 Enricher, the first hierarchical graphitization model. It represents an entirely new class of AI models designed to transform document corpora into rich, highly structured knowledge graphs. In brief, our model is capable of: - Entity extraction, classification, and linking: identifying key entities like individuals, companies, governments, locations, dates, documents, and more, and classifying and linking them together. - Hierarchical segmentation: breaking a document up into its full hierarchy, including divisions, sections, subsections, paragraphs, and so on. - Text…
