What it does
More than a wallet. Byoky is a network that lets your AI tokens flow between people, apps, and providers. Gift your spare budget to anyone. Translate between Claude, GPT, and Gemini on the fly. Connect from your phone via QR. 13 providers, open source.
Build AI apps with zero API costs. Your users connect their own keys through Byoky — encrypted locally, proxied securely. 13 providers, 2 lines to integrate. Open source.
Byoky lets you share your token budget with friends, your team, or anyone building cool stuff — without exposing your keys. It's Thursday. Your Anthropic limit resets on Monday. Your buddy hasn't touched his. Byoky lets him share — no keys, no accounts, no friction. Pick a provider, set a budget cap, share the link. They redeem it in their wallet — your API key never leaves yours. Their prompts hit your wallet, which forwards them to Anthropic using your key. They get tokens. You keep control. One click kills the gift. Budget caps enforce limits automatically so nobody burns through your quota by accident. Use an existing Claude Pro/Max subscription, or accept a gifted token budget from…from byoky.com

Four vendors, four separate conversation histories, four profiles of how I think. None of them talk to each other. Switch providers and you start over. So I built a system where the memory is mine. I run a knowledge graph in Postgres (Supabase, free tier) with pgvector for semantic search. A small MCP server reads and writes to it. That server sits behind an MCP Gateway on a $6/month VPS, along with Brave Search and a GitHub server. TypingMind connects to the gateway as a BYOK client -- any model, any device, same…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
