Open-Source Document Extraction Tool
Hi, I'm building an open-source self-hostable document extraction tool powered by LLM. There are popular data extraction tools and OCR tools in the market. None of them are open source. Most accounting firms, law firms, insurance, back office, and real-estate folks would like to use a tool like this. You can add PDF documents, Images, and audio files and create columns to answer questions on documents or extract information into tabular format. Access to repo: https://github.com/harishdeivanayagam/rowfill Screenshots:…
In plain words
This open-source, self-hostable tool uses large language models to extract information from documents, images, and audio files into structured tabular formats. Users upload files, define custom columns with questions, and the system automatically extracts relevant data. It targets accounting firms, law firms, insurance companies, and real estate businesses that need document processing without relying on closed-source solutions. The tool can handle invoices, receipts, and other documents requiring structured data extraction.

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…

- TITetris in a PDF▲1,289
I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…
