Demo starts at 50m into the video. This was a bit terrifying to record because 2am the previous night everything was totally broken after a major refactor (so that we could add external LLM support as well as local GPUs). But pressure can be a useful force :-D We start with a stack deployed on my laptop without a GPU, pointing to together.ai so we can run open source LLMs easily without having to have access to a GPU. We show simple inference through the ChatGPT-like web interface (with users, sessions etc) and then simple drag'n'drop RAG. Then we show some helix apps defined as yaml: Marvin…

VibeSolve is an open-source tool that turns a plain-English description of an optimisation problem into Timefold code. Mathematical optimisation is a branch of mathematics and computer science that searches for the minimum/maximum of objective functions, and has applications in transport, logistics, scheduling etc. We are exploring where LLMs can add value in optimisation algorithm development, and where they get in the way. Right now, it works well for rapid prototyping. It does not create production-ready code and requires technical skills to use. It is noticeably better at creating…

I want to be very upfront: this IDE's code is 100% generated by LLMs supervised by me, I am not hiding this fact. This submission was written by a human. microide's focus is performance and privacy, I was very tired of having AI integrated on every tool (ironic, I know, having vibecoded this one), and the decline in software performance. After trying quite a few IDEs none were what I wanted so I started microide. microide also does not have any kind of telemetry nor networking capabilities by design, no accounts, no update checks, none. Since I only use CLI-based LLM tools, microide has a…

I've built an airgapped Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system for question-answering on documents, running entirely offline with local inference. Using Llama 3, Mistral, and Gemini, this setup allows secure, private NLP on your own machine. Perfect for researchers, data scientists, and developers who need to process sensitive data without cloud dependencies. Built with Llama C++, LangChain, and Streamlit, it supports quantized models and provides a sleek UI for document processing. Check it out, contribute, or suggest new features!

Hey HN, I've been working on something cool that I wanted to share with you all. It's called Viewpoint, an analytics tool for LLMs like OpenAI, Anthropic models, and Gemini. The idea came from the constant flood of new LLM models and the need to figure out which ones work best for my projects without breaking the bank. With viewpoint, I can track token usage, costs, latency(WIP), and traffic over time, making it easier to compare different models and see which ones perform best and save money. The tool works asynchronously, so it doesn't add any latency to your LLM requests, and you have…

Every time I wanted to use LLMs in my existing pipelines the integration was very bloated, complex, and too slow. This is why I created a lightweight library that works just like scikit-learn, the flow generally follows a pipeline-like structure where you “fit” (learn) a skill from sample data or an instruction set, then “predict” (apply the skill) to new data, returning structured results. High-Level Concept Flow Your Data --> Load Skill / Learn Skill --> Create Tasks --> Run Tasks --> Structured Results --> Downstream Steps And the bast part: Every step can be saved and reused as…

Hi HN! I lead product at Vectara and we've just released a new LLM in our platform that outperforms GPT4 and Gemini 1.5 Pro on RAG tasks. Vectara is a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) platform primarily deployed as a SaaS service which includes a generous free tier so you can try it for free. The way we've been able to offer a "better but cheaper" is that we focus a lot of our attention on taking smaller models (which can be hosted in a cost efficient way) and fine tuning them to specific tasks: in this case RAG. This ends up with a model that is less capable of arbitrary tasks like…

I’ve been building LLM tooling for a small VC fund and found myself explaining the same mental model over and over to non-technical people around me: how a stateless LLM becomes a chatbot, how tool use works, what an agent is mechanically, and why context windows shape all of it. I never found a guide that covered that full chain at the level I wanted, so I wrote one. It’s nine short chapters, each building on the last. Deliberately simplified: the goal is a useful mental model, not a textbook. Feedback, corrections, and contributions welcome: github.com/ymyke/aiaiai

Hi HN, we're Ashpreet, Eli and Yash and we're excited to share Phidata: a collection of AI Apps built with open-source tools. While helping teams build AI products, we built templates for spinning up LLM Apps quickly. Today we're open-sourcing our templates for building: - RAG LLM Apps - Autonomous LLM Apps - Multimodal LLM Apps - Data Engineering LLM Apps Templates are built with FastApi for serving, Streamlit for prototyping, PgVector for vectors and PosgreSQL for storage. Run them locally using docker and in production on AWS - with 1 command. - Github:…

At testup.io we have been working for a while to bring artificial intelligence to the field of test automation. Just a few years ago, the primary challenge laid in accurately identifying UI elements following minor structural changes, such as updates to IDs or paths. The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) raised the bar for what it meant to be smart. Now, we anticipate the robot to do lots of things autonomously, such as retry in cases of unresponsiveness or handle minor error reports. A more challenging, but soon expected feature, would involve the test robot navigating your web shop…

Hey HN! I built self-driving sim and eval at Waymo. Now I’m building Scorecard to bring that approach to agent eval: reproducible, automated scoring for AI. Scorecard lets you: - Run LLM-as-judge evals on agent workflows: test tool usage, multi-step reasoning, and task completion in CI/CD or in a playground. - Debug failures with OpenTelemetry traces: see which tool failed, why your agent looped, and where reasoning went wrong. - Collaborate on datasets, simulated agents, and evaluation metrics.

Hi I am Jan, CTO @ Pathway. A use case we have been working on with LLMs is to let people know when an answer to their query changes due to revisions of source documents. Obviously, we want to avoid periodically re-computing all queries for the LLM. Why I think it’s cool? - We don’t spin in a loop to repeat with the LLM. - Alerts are LLM-deduplicated - no spamming users with typo fixes - And the best - our framework, Pathway takes care of handling the updates, the example looks nearly like a regular, static RAG chatbot. More context + GIF of how it works for Google Drive document alerts:…

Tried all SaaS Sales and GTM tools; ended up vibe-coding a simple tool that just works. Uses Claude Code as a backend (funny, I know). Helps enrich, qualify, and prepare high-quality reach-outs
