AI-Evals.io – Evaluate this site with the tools it reviews
I've been working on a site [1] to give people control of their LLM workflows through AI evals - automated checks that, once defined, let you move fast without regressions and cut through hype with proof. That one-liner is aimed at software engineers, but I've spent my career helping cross-functional teams collaborate, and that's really what this is about. AI agents make powerful workflows very plausible, but only if teams can grow them incrementally without losing control - no vendor lock-in, no discipline silos, no blind trust in outputs. The site tries to meet different audiences where…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I've been working on a site [1] to give people control of their LLM workflows through AI evals - automated checks that, once defined, let you move fast without regressions and cut through hype with proof. That one-liner is aimed at software engineers, but I've spent my career helping cross-functional teams collaborate, and that's really what this is about. AI agents make powerful workflows very plausible, but only if teams can grow them incrementally without losing control - no vendor lock-in, no discipline silos, no blind trust in outputs. The site tries to meet different audiences where they are, with mostly practice over theory: tool comparisons, minimal approaches, and freedom to work at whatever level of complexity serves you - whether that's Claude Code with Agent Skills, local models, or custom Python agents. As a fun "eat your own dog food" experiment, I use the site itself as the reproducible cookbook ("eval-ception") [2]. It's the quickest way to feel what different eval tools are actually like in practice. I welcome feedback, contributions, or stories. More on the project and what's coming [3]. It's a rewarding area once you realize you can keep control and move methodically - doesn't matter if it's the smallest model or a swarm.

Hi HN! Run it: OPENROUTER_API_KEY="sk" npx bff-eval --demo We built a tool to help people take LLM outputs and easily grade them / eval them to know how good an assistant response is. We've built a number of LLM apps, and while we could ship decent tech demos, we were disappointed with how they'd perform over time. We worked with a few companies who had the same problem, and found out scientifically building prompts and evals is far from a solved problem... writing these things feels more like directing a play than coding. Inspired by Anthropic's constitutional ai concepts, and amazing…

Hey HN! We’ve been building an MCP server to help AI-assisted web app developers by using browser agents to test whether changes made by an AI inside an editor actually work. We've been testing it on scenarios like verifying new flows in a UI, or checking that sending a chat request triggers a response. The idea is to let your coding agent both code and evaluate if what it did was correct. Here’s a short demo with Cursor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AoQK-bwR0w When building apps, we found the hardest part of AI-assisted coding isn’t the coding—it’s tedious point-and-click…

I’ve spent the past 10 years working on AI in finance, with much of that time focused on building evaluation systems for production environments. As agents become more widely adopted, more software engineering and product people have start building them. But I’ve noticed that many teams are not yet fluent in systematic evaluation, or in the processes needed to keep agent quality high over time. For large organizations, that gap is rarely the bottleneck due to dedicated teams. But after speaking with a number of startups, it became clear that building strong, up-to-date evals is much harder…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
