Hey HN! This is Tim from AnythingLLM (https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm). AnythingLLM is an open-source desktop assistant that brings together RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), agents, embeddings, vector databases, and more—all in one seamless package. We built AnythingLLM over the last year iterating and iterating from user feedback. Our primary mission is to enable people with a layperson understanding of AI to be able to use AI with little to no setup for either themselves, their jobs, or just to try out using AI as an assistant but with *privacy by…

I started leaning in on AI heavily this year, as I wanted to get more done autonomously, but then my token usage climbed dramatically to the point where my weekly quota would run out before the end of the week, sometimes a couple of days into the week. I realised I had to do something about it else I'd have to double my spend. So I decided to start tracking my cost per task type. This revealed that a lot of my spend went to searches/scans or simple things like scouting tasks. I then decided to turn this into a simple CLI tool that can be used to read your OpenAI-style logs locally, and…

TL;DR - My cofounder Collin and I built an AI version of Digi-Key to help PCB designers find and use parts, except with a way bigger catalog, modern refinement tools, and an AI that can actually read the damn datasheets for you. *The problem* Modern circuit board design is filled with absurdly tedious tasks, where one small mistake can brick a project and cost thousands. The worst (in our opinion) is reading datasheets, which eats up to 25% of the first part of any project: 1. First, you slog through catalogs to find viable parts, using search tools that are still stuck in the dark ages.…

I feel like LLMs can help me understand anything. However, after I get a summary, I can't dive in to parts that I find interesting; can't refer to original source easily and can't control context with chatbots. This is an attempt to solve for a complete knowledge consumption experience with AI . Please give me feedback!
