What it does

MisterPilot is an OpenAI-compatible API gateway that lets you pay with UPI instead of a credit card. No forex fees, no $5 minimums — recharge starting at ₹50. Swap your base URL and keep your existing code; it just works. Built-in PII redaction scrubs sensitive data before it hits any model. Solo-built by a Java backend dev who got tired of needing a foreign card just to test an idea. Built in public — feedback welcome. 🙏

OpenAI-compatible AI coding assistant. VS Code extension, API engine, and pay-as-you-go platform. Built for developers.

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
