24 alternatives to Open Source AI Playground for Prompt Engineers
Hi HN, We're a small team building AI tutors out of India, and as you might guess, this means we spend a ton of time writing, testing, and refining prompts for LLMs. When we started out, we were using the OpenAI playground but things became tedious when we wanted to compare responses from different models. We tried a bunch of other playgrounds but found them lacking in some features so we built our own. Quick Links: Github: https://github.com/supernova-app/ai-playground Hosted demo: http://playground.getsupernova.ai Demo video:…
Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hey, Jared Palmer (creator of this playground) here. Really excited to ship this. I’ve been building this over the past few weeks to compare LLMs from different providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, etc. At Vercel, I manage our Frameworks division (including Next.js, Svelte, and Turbo) and wanted to also dogfood some of the latest features in a slightly larger application. This playground takes a lot of inspiration from https://nat.dev and is built on Tailwind, ui.shadcn.com, and some upcoming Vercel products we’re announcing soon. We’re going to continue adding models to…

Playground▲198We build AI agents to find vulnerabilities in other AI agents. The playground started as an internal tool that we used to test our own offensive agent Nyx. But we realised that hacking an AI is about have as wide a distribution of attacks as possible, especially those which aren't in the distribution of the models. So we are launching playground as a platform to crowdsource agent jailbreaks. And although hacking AI is super fun and we are sure people will do it for free, we want to reward those who help us push forward the offensive frontier of AI. So we are committing $100K in prizes over…

Hey everyone, I'm Petr. I'm excited to share LangTale Playground (https://langtale.ai/playground), a first-of-its-kind tool enabling anyone to experiment with OpenAI function calls without coding. Born out of a hackathon project, it's now a part of our broader LangTale platform aimed at tackling common developer challenges with Language Learning Models (LLM). These include prompt integration, testing and debugging, version control, auditing, and usage/cost management. Here's our tech stack: Next.js by Vercel, Tailwind CSS, OpenAI, PlanetScale's Vitess database, and the…

I built this out of frustration as I lead the development of AI features at Yola.com. Prompt testing should be simple and straightforward. All I wanted was a simple way to test prompts with variables and jinja2 templates across different models, ideally somthing I could open during a call, run few tests, and share results with my team. But every tool I tried hit me with a clunky UI, required login and API keys, or forced a lengthy setup process. And that's not all. Then came the pricing. The last quote I got for one of the tools on the market was $6,000/year for a team of 16 people in a…

We build runtime security for AI agents. The playground started as an internal tool that we used to test our own guardrails. But we kept finding the same types of vulnerabilities because we think about attacks a certain way. At some point you need people who don't think like you. So we open-sourced it. Each challenge is a live agent with real tools and a published system prompt. Whenever a challenge is over, the full winning conversation transcript and guardrail logs get documented publicly. Building the general-purpose agent itself was probably the most fun part. Getting it to reliably use…

Hey HN! A few months ago we shared our AI dataset generator as an open source repo, and the response was incredible (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44388093). We got requests from folks who wanted to use it without the hosting overhead, so we created both options: a hosted version (https://www.metabase.com/ai-data-generator for instant use and the source code fully open (https://github.com/metabase/dataset-generator) for anyone who wants to self-host or contribute. Looking forward to seeing how you use it and what you build on top of…

Hi HN, I built Prompt Builder (https://www.promptbuilder.space/) because I was frustrated managing complex AI prompts in plain text boxes. The core idea: instead of one giant textarea, you compose prompts from draggable, reorderable blocks. Each block can have its own XML/custom tags, visibility toggles (so you can A/B test sections), and duplicates. Key technical details: - Live compiled preview: the right pane shows the exact string being sent, updating as you drag/toggle blocks - Dynamic variables: define {{var_name}} once, use across blocks, change in one…

Knit was created to solve pains of other LLM playgrounds. Some of the highlights: - Smart prompt builder, create prompt with simple requirement and few shot learning, fast and effortlessly. - Function call simulation, visualize the function callings and you can also setup a mocked value to return. - Support OpenAI/Anthropic/Azure models. - Manage prompts with projects and members. - And so much more! I have been developing Knit by myself for over 4 months now, and am looking for ways to improve it. Any feedback is appreciated.

Hi there - Ben from LiveKit here! If you’re curious about OpenAI’s brand-new Realtime API and speech-to-speech model, check out this hosted playground and play with the model yourself. If you’d like to learn more about how this came together, read on. If you’re like me, you’ve probably been wondering what novel things a model like this can do in an API setting with unfettered access to the system prompt and other parameters. I’ve been fortunate to have had early access through my work at LiveKit, where we’ve built open-source developer tooling that makes deploying this model in a production…

Kshitij and Rahul here. We're building Playground, an open-source sandbox that lets your non-technical teams prototype directly on production codebases, without bugging you (developers) to spin up and maintain another repo. The repo is here: https://github.com/B1u3B01t/design-playground. We've been working together for six years. Last year we built an AI design agent because we thought designers were the biggest bottleneck. But we were wrong. After talking to teams, we realised designers, PMs, founders and even sales people all wanted to quickly change and explore flows…
