Show HN: Eunomia, Open Source Data Governance for LLM-Based Applications

Like many of you, we've spent the last two years dealing with requests to sprinkle LLM-powered features everywhere. One recurring problem we faced in almost every project was related to data governance. In most cases, it was extremely hard to implement the needed granular control over the retrieved data. We developed custom solutions each time, but when we realized most of the solutions could be reused in subsequent projects, we started thinking about creating a modular framework. Today we're releasing that framework! We've already built some modules using open-source solutions such as Microsoft Presidio (1) or custom fine-tuned models like our own Financial BERT (2), but the goal is to let you play with it and add the modules you need for your own use case. Leave a star on GitHub if you find this problem interesting, join our community i
