The score comes from our model.
- Show HN: Convert Anthropic and OpenAI bill exports to FinOps FOCUS (open source) · score 6.3
Converts AI provider billing exports (Anthropic, OpenAI, Together AI) into the FinOps FOCUS standard CSV format, and validates arbitrary CSVs against FOCUS rule sets locally. Notable for its careful cost reconciliation logic (preserving provider dollar figures while deriving unit prices from token counts) and for porting the FOCUS validator rule models to JavaScript. Fills a real niche for teams doing AI cost observability.
- Show HN: Murmur, open-source push-to-talk dictation for Mac (BYO OpenAI key) · score 6.3
Murmur is a macOS menu bar app for push-to-talk dictation that transcribes speech to text anywhere you type, using your own OpenAI API key. It offers features like push-to-talk/toggle shortcuts, real-time transcription, post-processing modes (translation, cleanup, commit messages), and automatic language detection. The project is notable for being an open-source, bring-your-own-key alternative to paid dictation apps, with privacy-focused design (audio goes directly to OpenAI) and clear setup instructions.
- Show HN: Zilla – Use the OpenAI SDK to Call Claude and Gemini · score 6.3
Zilla is a gateway that enables using the OpenAI SDK to call multiple LLM providers like Claude and Gemini, simplifying multi-provider AI integration. It provides a unified API surface, reducing the need for provider-specific SDKs. This is interesting for developers building AI applications that require flexibility across LLM vendors.
- Show HN: Smart Blur – Auto-Blur PII in the Browser, with a OpenAI Local Model · score 6.0
Smart Blur is a Chrome extension that automatically blurs sensitive information (PII) on web pages before it can be seen by others. It uses a local OpenAI Privacy Filter model running on WebGPU to detect unstructured PII like names and addresses, and includes a Share Shield feature that activates blurring when screen sharing is detected. It is notable for combining local AI with privacy-preserving browser-based operation.
