Launch HN: Respan (YC W24) – Open-source Rust AI gateway built around plugins
Hey HN, this is Andy from Respan ([https://www.respan.ai][1]). We are building an open-source Rust AI gateway. It is a decoupled gateway, so everything is a plugin, including different providers, protocols (MCP, voice), modalities (images, videos), and gateway features (fallbacks, PII redaction, smart routing).
Instead of packaging tons of providers and features into one gateway, Respan provides a small core and public interfaces that teams can use to assemble the AI infrastructure their application needs. That way, users can build their own features as additional plugins without having to change the gateway's core.
Here’s a video demo: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVv2ibXiTXM][2]
There are countless LLM gateways and most of them solve a common problem: calling different providers from a single endpoint. However, adding new features can become prohibitively difficult. So developers can end up building another gateway to solve a specific problem.
We've been building our gateway based on LiteLLM since 2024, and now it's providing services for thousands of orgs. Each org needs different API key settings, routes, and limits. To support that, we kept wrapping LiteLLM, adding more features to it, and at one stage, our wrapper code exceeded 100,000 lines.
This January, a routine LiteLLM upgrade caused intermittent connection errors, and we had to roll back. We still haven't figured out the cause, but since then, we no longer upgrade LiteLLM directly and instead manually backport upstream fixes. These experiences made us realize that continuing to patch LiteLLM is not a sustainable long-term solution, and we had to redesign the gateway ourselves.
While redesigning our gateway, we wanted to make it easier to add features without breaking existing ones. Inspired by Nginx, we think an AI gateway should have a really small core, only responsible for dispatching events.
We believe that everything should be a plugin in our gateway, including providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini), protocols (chat, realtime voice, MCP), modalities (images, videos), and gateway features for reliability and security (smart routing, fallbacks, and PII redaction through example plugins). Beyond that, we want developers to be able to easily extend the gateway's capabilities by adding their own plugins, without touching the core. Adding a provider, even your own, is dead simple, because quirks are plugins too and there’s nothing magical about them. A provider is a short file, Mistral’s is 22 lines, and each quirk, like Groq putting token usage in its own field, gets its own test.
Respan Gateway does more than let you call Claude or Gemini models from the OpenAI SDK. It handles tools, images, and reasoning protocols automatically: an application based on the OpenAI Realtime API can also use Gemini Live through the gateway, though not every feature translates. A simple chat app can use MCP tools configured in the gateway, without implementing MCP itself.
We also parse requests into a shared structure. When the client and provider use the same API, we preserve provider-specific fields in their native format, even if our shared structure doesn't have a field for them. That way, the gateway can write them back instead of dropping them.
Here’s how it works:
An adapter hands each HTTP or WebSocket connection to the first client format that recognizes it. The format exposes the request as a two-way stream of typed input and output events. The core runs plugins in registration order, allowing them to choose a provider, filter or wrap either stream, make additional calls, return a response, or refuse the request. A provider format then opens the upstream connection.
If the client and provider use the same format and no plugin changes the payload, the original bytes and protocol-specific fields can pass through unchanged. When formats differ, they translate through shared types for messages, tool calls, results, streams, and usage. This stream model can represent both one-shot HTTP requests and long-lived bidirectional sessions.
The gateway is open source at [https://github.com/respanai/respan-gateway][3] under the MIT or Apache-2.0 license. You don't need to use Respan's hosted platform and can run it directly on your local machine. Build it from source, add your provider keys, and swap the base URL in a supported client. You can keep using the API your client already speaks. It's still pre-alpha.
We make money from our hosted platform ([https://www.respan.ai/pricing][4]), which runs the gateway for you with native observability and evals, along with unified billing.
If you’re building routing, tools, filtering, observability, or security for agents, we'd love to see it as a plugin. PLUGINS.md in the repo explains how to write one and links to the plugins we’ve created so far. Turning that into an ecosystem is basically our roadmap, and we welcome you to contribute your own plugins. We'd love to answer any questions and hear your feedback!

Show HN: VoidAccess – open-source dark web OSINT, from query to a graph
Hi HN! Im Katriel, and im a Security Researcher/Enthusiast and in the wave of AI, i wanted to build that next gen of security tooling that surpasses the current tools, and even the paid industries with an open source engine. I built MailAccess as well, which is going to be the best damn email osint tool out there, in another year. But just before building MailAccess i built VoidAccess, because i was delving a lot into DarkINT and the content inside the dark web is too difficult to navigate through for a human, so i automated that pipeline, made sure the noise was removed, and anything NSFW was filtered out, to give the analyst an overview of what is present in the dark web, without having to actually go through it manually.
Very simple to run, you just run a few commands to install, and a couple to investigate. Then the engine takes over, and stops onyl when the job is done(or at a particular time limit, if set by the user).
Do check it out, if that is something that interests you.
Thanks to the community for giving it the love it has got till now.

Ask HN: Why do we let the AI companies dominate regulation discussion?
And I don't mean the doomerism nonsense. From rogue AI, doomerism, AGI.
I mean real regulation:
1) Fair accounting of input/output tokens. Where is the weights and measures department to enforce fair counting of usage? If I pay for a gallon of gas, that is what I expect. When I pay for a dollar of LLM compute, is it going to play games with the input (or especially the output) tokens to devalue my dollar? 2) Quality. When I request a higher effort of a frontier model, and then I get downgraded to a lower tier model or with different effort levels (and I may not even know if I was downgraded!), they are effectively selling you a service you didn't ask for. "But the terms of service", great, if they feel it is such a risk to downgrade, and they get it wrong a lot, then they should discount the cost of the downgraded response. 3) Adulterating outputs. LLMs are now routinely adulterating output for tracking and accountability purposes, but is there anyone to validate these efforts are not lowering the quality of the response? There needs to be more discussion around companies
adulterating their product, and holding *them* to account. I have several times noticed words were swapped: sometimes the word pick made no sense, when it previously didn't do this. And I wasn't looking for it or cherry picking. It stood out that badly. 4) Furthering point 3, are the responses themselves going to be seeded such that the author of that response can be identified? Has anyone asked themselves if they could deanonymize LLM responses online like yellow printer dots? 5) Quotas. Related to points 1 and 2, when I am on a metered service, what happens to requests that fail mid-response, or the response is cut midway? Why should I pay for a failed response? Maybe that is fine, but who is validating they aren't doing this at scale to save money?
I feel every time we earnestly or "good faith" engage in the nonsense regulations that the major LLMaaS (LLMs as a Service) duopolists, we fail to engage in real discussions about regulating the product *we are paying for*.
I don't see why we should believe these companies to operate in good faith post-IPO. Where is the incentive once they shut down all competition to ensure only OpenAI/Anthropic are the LLMs you can purchase from?
Look to what Uber/Lyft have become over the years. Massively degrading their service and increasing nickel and dime costs. They skirted regulation then demanded the world bend and write regulations that fit their revenue goals everywhere they could (or threatened to pull out where they couldn't).
And if the danger really is as bad as they say, then how can we trust them to "regulate" that threat if they would refuse regulations around basic delivery of service?

Show HN: Ekselio – Loveable for finance workflows (local first)
Hi everyone, I am KD - Back in my college days, I dabbled with coding, learned the basics, HTML, CSS etc. but somehow I ended up in Finance which consumed the next 20 years. Then, during covid I picked up coding again, learned react, typescript, etc - even built a rudimentary site - and then came the chatgpt moment, followed by Claude etc.
So, as a side project, considering that I had spent 20 years in finance and M&A I started building Ekselio, loveable for finance workflows.
Differently from other vibe coding tools, this is local first - meaning the workflows are orchestrated by the LLM based on the file schema but then the execution happens in the browser - the cool thing is that you can see the canvas, the previews of each node, and the code base (SQl) - see the Canvas tab.
That said I did include a home tab, which is more of a visual, mainly because people think it's easier to relate to how folks operate, although I know finance and accounting folks usually like the workflow and full transparency - the other thing is that once you create a workflow you can save it and then next month,you can just click Run and it runs it again with no LLM tokes involved - so the infrastructure is minimal.
Everything can be exported in an excel data pack with M code in case someone would want to reproduce - think Audit ready. And, I also connected to quickbooks on line so someone can directly pull in and manipulate their financials live - I also connected to Fred which carries literally 800k series in terms of macro economic data - i.e. oil prices, inflation, CPI etc and finally to stocks.
I am hoping people find holes in the architecture or any ideas to make this flow a little bit better. It is in progress so if you run into bugs let me know. Considering that I am using my own API key, I have put a wall in case people overuse it but DM me if you would like to continue using, I can turn off the wall for you - hoping to keep that to a small number of users if I can and will do my best. Thank you again, appreciate you taking the time.

Show HN: Floe – an open-source plugin for sample libraries – CLAP/VST3/AU
I'm Sam, I make sample libraries (as FrozenPlain). These sample libraries run inside Floe, my audio plugin for Linux, macOS and Windows. It's designed for musicians, composers and producers - typically people involved with film/TV/game scoring or ambient music. I open-sourced it primarily because I'm very fond of this philosophy and I want to open the door for serving a wider audience than just my own libraries.
It's totally free, no sign-ups. You'll need a DAW. To try it: - Download and install Floe: [https://floe.audio][1] - Download your choice of free packages: https:floe.audio/packages#community-packages or [https://www.frozenplain.com/product/music-box-suite-free][2] - Install the packages using Floe's 'Install Package' button. [https://floe.audio/docs/installation/install-packages][3]
I'm curious about HN's thoughts regarding the open-source nature, directions I could take for expanding the audience, and the Lua based sample-library it has ([https://floe.audio/docs/develop/develop-libraries][4]). Thanks.
