Phorm – AI code search that just works
Hey HN, we’re the team at Morph Labs and we’re excited to release Phorm (https://phorm.ai), a fast, simple, and SOTA codebase answer engine. You can search over up to 8 repositories in almost any language, and Phorm can comfortably handle repositories up to ~200K LOC each. It is free during our initial research preview. Phorm’s Advanced Indexing combines synthetic data with static analysis of the code graph to improve the relevancy of search results by up to 3X. We’re proud to launch with featured Advanced Indexing support for a select group of leading open-source projects: - Nomic…

Opper AIJul 2026 · opper.ai · ▲229Hey HN! After the Car Wash Test post got quite a big discussion going (400+ comments, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47128138), I spent the past few weeks building a tool so anyone can run these kinds of questions and get structured results. No signup and free to use. You type a question, define answer options, pick up to 50 models at a time from a pool of 200+, and they all answer independently under identical conditions. No system prompt, structured output, same setup for every model. You can also run a debate round where models see each other's reasoning and get a…
TensorZero2025 · github.com · ▲307Hi 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:…
I made a better Perplexity for developers2024 · devv.ai · ▲185Hi HN, I am Jiayuan, and I'm here to introduce a tool we've been building over the past few months: Devv (https://devv.ai). In simple terms, it is an AI-powered search engine specifically designed for developers. Now, you might ask, with so many AI search engines already available—Perplexity, You.com, Phind, and several open-source projects—why do we need another one? We all know that Generative Search Engines are built on RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)[1] combined with Large Language Models (LLMs). Most of the products mentioned above use indexes from general search engines…
TrailsJan 2026 · trails-red.vercel.app · ▲81Hey 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…
Sourcebot – Self-hosted Perplexity for your codebase2025 · github.com · ▲103Hi HN, We’re Brendan and Michael, the creators of Sourcebot (https://www.sourcebot.dev/), a self-hosted code understanding tool for large codebases. We originally launched on HN 9 months ago with code search (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41711032), and we’re excited to share our newest feature: Ask Sourcebot. Ask Sourcebot is an agentic search tool that lets you ask complex questions about your entire codebase in natural language, and returns a structured response with inline citations back to your code. Some types of questions you might ask: - “How does…

Hi everyone! We just launched Depth AI - a tool that helps you onboard to large and messy codebases. Unlike most dev tools that help in codegen and building smaller apps, this one mainly aims at understanding large repos better - so we have focussed a lot of code search quality. We also launched the first version on product hunt https://www.producthunt.com/posts/depth-ai. Do check us out. Would love to hear feedback here and discuss more how our approach to code search is different.
