The right way to build authorized RAG chatbots

What it does

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines are great for finding relevant information, but terrible at respecting permissions. A few weeks ago, I met an ML engineer who had built a RAG chatbot interface for his company’s engineering documents. The system worked well – so well that the HR organization wanted their own chatbot too. Like any engineer, he was keen on keeping the system as simple as possible. There was only one problem – HR’s knowledge base is full of sensitive documents. When it came to enforcing permissions on his RAG vector searches, he had no idea where to start. This crystallized a challenge I've been observing across many organizations: while RAG systems excel at…from osohq.com

  I built an open-source AI data layer that connects any LLM to any data2025 · github.com · ▲18

  Excited to share a project I’ve been building for months! Would love to receive honest feedback :) My motivation: AI is clearly going to be the interface for data. But earlier attempts (text-to-SQL, etc.) fell short — they treated it like magic. The space has matured: teams now realize that AI + data needs structure, context, and rules. So I built a product to help teams deliver “chat with data” solutions fast with full control and observability (agent tracing, quality scores, etc) — am I wrong? The product allows you to connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context…

  Bot The BuilderNov 2025 · botthebuilder.net · ▲7

  Hi HN, I built Bot The Builder to solve a recurring problem I kept facing while building chatbots for clients: every time, I had to rebuild the same RAG stack, embed the same knowledge base, and deploy from scratch—even for small use cases. So I created a tool that lets you build and deploy AI agents from your own data (PDFs, docs, URLs, text) in under 60 seconds — no code required. You can embed the agent in any website or access it via API. ### Why I built it: - Most “AI chatbot builders” are either locked down or require complex LangChain pipelines. - I needed something fast, modular, and…

  Trickle - Magic Canvas ▲1,064

  Hey HN! Introducing Trickle Magic Canvas: the world’s first Agentic Canvas, where you can visually co-create apps and websites with AI, from idea to production. Why is a canvas better? Most AI tools today rely on linear chats or text prompts. We believe that limits creativity and clarity. Canvas changes the game. 1. Every version & page at a glance. Each page and sub-page lives on a timeline. You can quickly browse, edit, and preview progress like a living, visual document — no more digging through chat logs or scattered states. 2. The canvas is the context. Unlike linear chats, you can…

  Ten years of running every day, visualized▲958

  Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

  Draw a fish and watch it swim with the others▲935

  Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…

  Use Their ID – Use your local UK MP’s ID for the Online Safety Act▲862

  Hi HN - I made a site that takes a UK postcode, grabs the local MP's information and generates an AI mockup of what their ID might look like. It's a small, silly protest at the stupidity of the Online Safety Act that just came into force. edit - My open AI credits got hugged to death, please use a known postcode (like one from Kier Starmer's constituency, WC2B6NH) in the meantime.
