N0x – LLM inference, agents, RAG, Python exec in browser, no back end

Built this because I was tired of every AI tool shipping my data to someone else server n0x runs the full stack LLM inference via WebGPU, autonomous ReAct agents, RAG over your own docs, sandboxed Python execution via Pyodide all inside a single browser tab. No account No keys No backend Models download once, cache in IndexedDB permanently. Biggest challenge was context window budgeting for the agent loop and making the WASM vector search non-blocking. Happy to talk architecture. GitHub: https://github.com/ixchio/n0x | Live demo: https://n0x-three.vercel.app

What it does

Since launch 1: added a ReAct agent loop that runs tools (web search, Python, docs, image gen) autonomously. Hybrid RAG now uses BM25 + vector search fused with RRF + MMR reranking way better recall than vector-only. Auto-routing picks local vs cloud per message complexity. Chrome AI (Gemini Nano, zero download) works alongside WebGPU, Ollama, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Persistent semantic memory across sessions. GPU-tier detection now blocks models that'd OOM your device.

Ask confidential documents questions in your browser and get filename/chunk citations. Local model, search, and cloud boundaries stay explicit.

Choose the Browser provider to keep document extraction, retrieval, prompts, and inference on your device. Local model weights download on first use; search and cloud stay off until you choose them. Customer records are retained for 30 days after account closure, then permanently deleted. Customer records are kept for 30 days after account closure, then permanently deleted. [retention-policy.pdf#chunk-3] The first-run path leads with document upload and a sample. Provider controls, web search, and memory remain available in the workbench when you need them. Nothing is silently uploaded. Browser model downloads are shown before they start, and the provider badge shows when a task leaves the…from n0xth.vercel.app

  • Turn any website into a knowledge base for LLMs2024 · embedding.io · ▲305

    I built this tool because I wanted a way to just take a bunch of URLs or domains, and query their content in RAG applications. It takes away the pain of crawling, extracting content, chunking, vectorizing, and updating periodically. I'm curious to see if it can be useful to others. I meant to launch this six months ago but life got in the way...

    Hi HN! We're Gabriel & Viraj, and we're excited to open source TensorZero. To be a little cheeky, TensorZero is an open-source platform that helps LLM applications graduate from API wrappers into defensible AI products. 1. Integrate our model gateway 2. Send metrics or feedback 3. Unlock compounding improvements in quality, cost, and latency It enables a data & learning flywheel for LLMs by unifying: • Inference: one API for all LLMs, with <1ms P99 overhead • Observability: inference & feedback → your database • Optimization: better prompts, models, inference strategies • Experimentation:…

    G'day, HN! I'm one of the maintainers of `llm`. I've been working alongside a trusty group of contributors to bring this project to life, and we're now at a point where we're ready to share it with the world. Large language models (LLMs) are taking the computing world by storm due to their emergent abilities that allow them to perform a wide variety of tasks, including translation, summarization, code generation, and even some degree of reasoning. However, the ecosystem around LLMs is still in its infancy, and it can be difficult to get started with these models. `llm` is a one-stop shop for…

    In-Browser Graph RAG with Kuzu-WASM and WebLLM2025 · blog.kuzudb.com · ▲158

    We show the potential of modern, embedded graph databases in the browser by demonstrating a fully in-browser chatbot that can perform Graph RAG using Kuzu (the graph database we're building) and WebLLM, a popular in-browser inference engine for LLMs. The post retrieves from the graph via a Text-to-Cypher pipeline that translates a user question into a Cypher query, and the LLM uses the retrieved results to synthesize a response. As LLMs get better, and WebGPU and Wasm64 become more widely adopted, we expect to be able to do more and more in the browser in combination with LLMs, so a lot of…

    Running LLMs in one line of Python without Docker2023 · lepton.ai · ▲68

    Hello Hacker News! We're Yangqing, Xiang and JJ from lepton.ai. We are building a platform to run any AI models as easy as writing local code, and to get your favorite models in minutes. It's like container for AI, but without the hassle of actually building a docker image. We built and contributed to some of the world's most popular AI software - PyTorch 1.0, ONNX, Caffe, etcd, Kubernetes, etc. We also managed hundreds of thousands of computers in our previous jobs. And we found that the AI software stack is usually unnecessarily complex - and we want to change that. Imagine if you are a…

    Hey all, Justin here. I previously built Phind, the AI search engine for developers. One of the biggest problems we had there was figuring out what went wrong with bad searches. We had tons of searches per day, but less than 1% of users gave any explicit feedback. So we were either manually digging through searches or making general system improvements and hoping they helped. This problem gets harder with agents. Traces are longer and more complex. It takes more effort to review them, so I'm building a tool that lets you analyze LLM outputs directly to help developers of LLM apps and agents…
