What it does

Rust-powered AI gateway that actually slaps. Semantic caching: 500ms → 8ms. Semantic firewall: catches jailbreaks/malicious actors by intent, not keywords. Hot-patch: fix hallucinations without redeploying. One line change. Free tier. Your API bill will thank you.

Protect your LLM applications with intelligent security and caching

Secure, accelerate, and monitor every move your AI makes in one secure platform. Get security, caching, observability and more without changing a single line of business logic by routing your AI traffic through Raptor. Every feature in Raptor works together - the intelligent layer that understands your traffic, protects your data, and delivers insights in real-time. Automatically detects prompt injections, jailbreaks, and malicious inputs. Highlights threats in real-time with detailed explanations. Uses embedding-based similarity to cache responses - not just exact matches. Reduces API costs by 50%+ with sub-millisecond lookups.

    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:…

  • LLM-Term – Simple Rust-based CLI assist tool2024 · github.com · ▲32

    Current AI-assisted CLI tools are often part of larger systems and work better on Linux. I built llm-term to address these. It's a Rust-based tool that compiles into a single binary file. You only need to download the binary, add it to your PATH, and configure your OpenAI key to get started. While llm-term offers an option for gpt-4o, it works great with gpt-4o-mini. So it's not costly. I appreciate any feedback or suggestions.

    Agent-cache – Multi-tier LLM/tool/session caching for Valkey and RedisApr 2026 · ▲18

    Multi-tier exact-match cache for AI agents backed by Valkey or Redis. LLM responses, tool results, and session state behind one connection. Framework adapters for LangChain, LangGraph, and Vercel AI SDK. OpenTelemetry and Prometheus built in. No modules required - works on vanilla Valkey 7+ and Redis 6.2+. Shipped v0.1.0 yesterday, v0.2.0 today with cluster mode. Streaming support coming next. Existing options locked you into one tier (LangChain = LLM only, LangGraph = state only) or one framework. This solves both. npm:…
