24 alternatives to Pipevals – a visual pipeline builder for evaluation-driven AI
Hey HN! Pipevals is early and rough (this is a learning project), but usable. It currently lets you: - build evaluation pipelines as graphs - run them against datasets - track how output quality changes over time

We’re Robin, Louis, and Thomas. Pipelex is a DSL and a Python runtime for repeatable AI workflows. Think Dockerfile/SQL for multi-step LLM pipelines: you declare steps and interfaces; any model/provider can fill them. Why this instead of yet another workflow builder? - Declarative, not glue code: you state what to do; the runtime figures out how. - Agent-first: each step carries natural-language context (purpose, inputs/outputs with meaning) so LLMs can follow, audit, and optimize. Our MCP server enables agents to run pipelines but also to build new pipelines on demand. - Open…

Hi HN, I’ve been working on an OCR pipeline specifically optimized for machine learning dataset preparation. It’s designed to process complex academic materials — including math formulas, tables, figures, and multilingual text — and output clean, structured formats like JSON and Markdown. Some features: • Multi-stage OCR combining DocLayout-YOLO, Google Vision, MathPix, and Gemini Pro Vision • Extracts and understands diagrams, tables, LaTeX-style math, and multilingual text (Japanese/Korean/English) • Highly tuned for ML training pipelines, including dataset generation and…

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:…

Throughout my 30+ software development career, after spending many sleepless nights digging up through enormous codebases to understand logic or fix a bug, I was thinking: "There must be a better, visual way to represent program rather than text". However, no usable visual programming language popped up on horizon for the whole duration of 30+ years of my career. Therefore, I decided to take matters in my own hands, creating new visual programming language called "Pipe". A book about this language was published recently. The book is available for free on Amazon Kindle and Apple iBooks.…
