    Hi HN! We love the "backend-less" stack: Stripe for payments, Supabase for data, Clerk for auth. But the moment we add AI features, we're forced to spin up a backend to hide API keys, implement per-user token-based rate limits and graceful degradation, etc. So we built Airbolt. What it does: Drop in our SDK and start making OpenAI calls directly from your frontend. Your keys are AES-256-GCM encrypted on our servers, never exposed to the client. We provide token-based per-user rate limits and origin allow lists to address inference abuse. Short-lived JWTs and bring-your-own-auth are coming…

    Hi HN, I'm Divy, former CTO at Branch and previously led engineering teams at Credit Karma and NexHealth. Over the past decade in fintech and healthtech, I've watched too many founders get blindsided by privacy compliance. The Problem: 80% of startups are unaware of privacy laws affecting their business. The choice between expensive attorneys ($5,000+) and risky generic templates is getting worse as regulations expand. Generic privacy policies fail because they make promises your business can't keep – I've seen this tank funding rounds and trigger regulatory investigations. My Personal Pain:…

    I built NICH after realising I couldn't use ChatGPT for my conflict research work without risking data leaks. It's a browser extension that: - Anonymises names, emails, and addresses in one click - Preserves context for AI to understand - Restores original data in AI responses - 100% browser-based (no cloud, data never leaves your device) Built it for researchers, lawyers, HR professionals or simply anyone handling confidential data who wants AI assistance without compliance nightmares. Free to use: https://www.nichtech.uk Would love feedback from the HN community!
