big-AGI

For writing and languange learning it's very decent, especially Mistral Large. The pricing is very good too. I really like the consistently low time to first token and good token per second. Claude, especially in the past, would be very inconsistent, often with outages. Mistral mostly just always works and is very fast. Technical questions are unfortunately hit or miss. I'm lately pretty much always using a system prompt that emphasizes short answers [1], and Opus regularly one-shots it while Mistral needs a follow up. I use big-AGI as a model router [2] (dumb name, great software), which makes switching midway very easy though. For coding I'm still using Claude Code mostly out of inertia (although I really want to move to an OSS harness) and the one time I tried their `vibe` tool months ago it was a bit rough. Mistral TTS with diarizatio

I use Big-AGI [1] as selfhosted open source LLM workspace, and it's quite telling that when adding API keys for Anthropic, it presents a note inbetween reading "Experiencing Issues? Check Anthropic status" that it doesn't for any other model provider. [1] https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI (no affiliation)

Hey HN, Enrico here. Some of you might remember Big-AGI from early chat days. The response here pushed me to quit my job and go all-in. Spent the last year rebuilding it properly (mostly hand-written) instead of shipping fast. This is the tool I couldn't find: the AI you use to decide what to build, and why, before going to Claude Code or Cursor. Even though the hype is on AI that 'does' things through heavy prompted experiences, I believe there's a strong need for AI that helps you "think" broader. How? with multiple models in parallel so you can spot hallucinations and lies, and so you can explore the solution space faster. And also with human bandwidth optimization: UI/UX is way underdeveloped for the "wall of text" phenomenon and hardly optimized for your I/O bandwidth besides voice input. And designed to short the generation/verifica

Just plug your API keys into a front end like https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI and pay as you go for all commercially available models

I find big-AGI pretty good: https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI

API ftw. I just started playing around with big-AGI (https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI) UI and it's really incredible.

https://github.com/enricoros/big-agi seems better and is open source

Open source LLM generic frontend project such as bigAGI (https://github.com/enricoros/big-agi) has been having this feature for many months now. The good news: it even works with open source and local LLMs.

It seems like it's setting gpt-4 here as well: https://github.com/enricoros/nextjs-chatgpt-app/blob/466a366... But come on, read through the source, look for the issue, I'm sure you can track down at least something :)

Change this https://github.com/enricoros/nextjs-chatgpt-app/blob/466a366... to say "gpt-3.5-tubo" and it should work for you

nice, maybe you can make the initializing prompts in https://github.com/enricoros/nextjs-chatgpt-app/blob/main/pa... transparent to the user and even changeable by them.
