LlaMaKey – One master key for all cloud LLM/GenAI APIs

Key management for multiple users and multiple cloud LLM/GenAI APIs is difficult to be both safe and convenient. Sharing keys among users risks leaking the key and makes it difficult to curb the leakage without interruptions. But assigning one key per user per cloud API results in too many keys to keep track of. Meet LlaMa(ster)Key, the secure and easy solution for API key management: * For each user, one master key for multiple APIs. * The master key is unique to each user. Granting and revoking a user's access won't impact other users. * The actual API keys to authenticate with cloud…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Key management for multiple users and multiple cloud LLM/GenAI APIs is difficult to be both safe and convenient. Sharing keys among users risks leaking the key and makes it difficult to curb the leakage without interruptions. But assigning one key per user per cloud API results in too many keys to keep track of. Meet LlaMa(ster)Key, the secure and easy solution for API key management: * For each user, one master key for multiple APIs. * The master key is unique to each user. Granting and revoking a user's access won't impact other users. * The actual API keys to authenticate with cloud APIs are never known to users. Never leak a key due to a careless intern. * No code change! Keep using the official Python SDK of the cloud AI APIs, including OpenAI, Cohere, AnyScale, Perplexity, HuggingFace (free-tier inference so far), and Vectara. LlaMaKey works by taking advantage of the BASE_URL and API_KEY/TOKEN environment variables that the official Python SDKs of major LLM/GenAI APIs rely on. Your users only need to set them via the OS environment variables or a dotenv file, or many other ways. Yes, LlaMaKey is a proxy deployable locally or on-premises. It's totally free under the MIT license. The Github repo is at: http://LlaMaKey.ai (will redirect to Github). Feel free to try it out and give us feedback. You can always reach us at [email protected] or simply open an issue at Github.

  • 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…
