Open-source ETL framework to sync data from SaaS tools to vector stores
Hey hacker news, we launched a few weeks ago as a GPT-powered chatbot for developer docs, and quickly realized that the value of what we’re doing isn’t the chatbot itself. Rather, it’s the time we save developers by automating the extraction of data from their SaaS tools (Github, Zendesk, Salesforce, etc) and helping transform it to contextually relevant chunks that fit into GPT’s context window. A lot of companies are building prototypes with GPT right now and they’re all using some combination of Langchain/Llama Index + Weaviate/Pinecone + GPT3.5/GPT4 as their stack for…
Open-source ETL framework to sync data from SaaS tools to vector stores launched on March 30, 2023 with 63 votes, #1,547 of 5,007 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.
In plain words
This open-source ETL framework automates the extraction and transformation of data from SaaS tools like GitHub, Zendesk, and Salesforce into vector store-compatible chunks. It is designed for developers building retrieval-augmented generation applications with large language models. The framework simplifies data pipeline management by handling the repetitive work of extracting, chunking, and preparing content for vector databases and language model context windows.

Open source alternative to ChatGPT and ChatPDF-like AI tools2023 · github.com · ▲234Hey everyone, We have been building SecureAI Tools -- an open-source application layer for ChatGPT and ChatPDF-like AI tools. It works with locally running LLMs as well as with OpenAI-compatible APIs. For local LLMs, it supports Ollama which supports all the gguf/ggml models. Currently, it has two features: Chat-with-LLM, and Chat-with-PDFs. It is optimized for self-hosting use cases and comes with basic user management features. Here are some quick demos: * Chat with documents using OpenAI's GPT3.5 model: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br2D3G9O47s * Chat with documents…

No-Code ETL Framework for Vector Databases2024 · github.com · ▲11We've open-sourced our no-code ETL framework for Vector Data processing. The VectorETL framework allows Data & AI engineers seamlessly process data from multiple data sources (S3, MySQL, Postgres, Salesforce) to ALL MAJOR vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, Milvus etc.) using just a config file. We'd love to get your feedback!

Try it out! https://glhf.chat/ Hey HN! We’ve been working for the past few months on a website to let you easily run (almost) any open-source LLM on autoscaling GPU clusters. It’s free for now while we figure out how to price it, but we expect to be cheaper than most GPU offerings since we can run the models multi-tenant. Unlike Together AI, Fireworks, etc, we’ll run any model that the open-source vLLM project supports: we don’t have a hardcoded list. If you want a specific model or finetune, you don’t have to ask us for it: you can just paste the Hugging Face link in and…

Hello Hacker News community, Wanted to share a project I started working on during my spare time and was then discovered by many in the open source community last week. GPT Engineer’s mission: Be the open platform for devs to tinker with and build their personal code-generation toolbox. I believe it's key for us devs to engage in how building software can and will change. You can find more info about the flexible technical "philosophy" to make it work well, and the community we want it to become on github: https://github.com/AntonOsika/gpt-engineer The project is still in…

I'm a big fan of the BBC podcast In Our Time -- and (like most people) I've been playing with the OpenAI APIs. In Our Time has almost 1,000 episodes on everything from Cleopatra to the evolution of teeth to plasma physics, all still available, so it's my starting point to learn about most topics. But it's not well organised. So here are the episodes sorted by library code. It's fun to explore. Web scraping is usually pretty tedious, but I found that I could send the minimised HTML to GPT-3 and get (almost) perfect JSON back: the prompt includes the Typescript definition. At the same time I…
