Decipher – An AI powered error monitoring tool

Hi HN, we’re Rohan and Michael from Decipher (https://prod.getdecipher.com/docs) and we’re working on an AI-powered error monitoring tool that helps engineers quickly understand what went wrong, the user impact, and how to fix it. It’s an alternative to tools like Sentry and BugSnag. We noticed that when there’s an application error it often takes too much time to figure out which issues are important and how to fix them. Because the overhead is too high, people (including us…) sometimes just pay attention to bugs that come directly from a user complaint. We were initially…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi HN, we’re Rohan and Michael from Decipher (https://prod.getdecipher.com/docs) and we’re working on an AI-powered error monitoring tool that helps engineers quickly understand what went wrong, the user impact, and how to fix it. It’s an alternative to tools like Sentry and BugSnag. We noticed that when there’s an application error it often takes too much time to figure out which issues are important and how to fix them. Because the overhead is too high, people (including us…) sometimes just pay attention to bugs that come directly from a user complaint. We were initially building an AI coding assistant that traced code execution to teach it how a specific codebase behaves (see a demo here: https://youtu.be/2LjVH2sH2Q8). In doing so, we realized that if you capture the right code-level runtime data (local variables, request, arguments, etc.) LLMs become quite effective at figuring out the impact of errors and debugging them. From that insight, we began working on Decipher which monitors for errors and collects all the relevant context in one place. This includes logs, endpoint, request bodies, the stack trace, local variables, and relevant code. With this centralized context, we use LLMs to summarize the issue and investigate a solution. What’s cool is that by summarizing this stuff, you can get a gist of the bug directly in a Slack alert (rolling out soon). For example, here’s an issue on a shopping app with a Flask backend, there was a `List Index out of Range error`: https://imgur.com/a/uEfoS9k) You can see all the relevant details are brought to the forefront and the AI was able to summarize the issue and hint at what the solution might be. We’re exploring capturing additional context like the function call graph and argument values and analyzing session replays to figure out the user impact of errors. Would love for folks to try out our free beta and would really appreciate any feedback! We currently support Express, Next.js, and Flask with just a few minute setup (install the library here: prod.getdecipher.com/docs) Library code: https://github.com/decipherai/decipher-client-js, https://github.com/decipherai/decipher-client-py

  • 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…
