Hi HN, Rouler is "rules for your routes". It allows you to steer network traffic across multiple network interfaces on Windows. For example: - Run Tailscale, Mullvad and OpenVPN official clients simultaneously. - Use Rouler to send Slack via the OpenVPN connection, Chrome + an IP range via Tailscale and a torrent client via Mullvad. Rouler is VPN agnostic, so you can "split-tunnel" with anything that sets up a windows network interface. I'm an independent developer from Australia and have been working on Rouler for a bit over a year. It's been a challenging project to say the least, but I'm r…

We built doc extraction that owns the Pareto curve for almost 2 orders of magnitude. Cost efficient structured outputs: - Near frontier quality structured extraction - Up to 99% cheaper - Up to 3x faster We've been using it under the hood at Pacific. Today we're releasing it broadly as a research experiment. It also bundles in a bunch of nice features to make the structured outputs more useful. You get citations with optional hosted citation urls with highlights, calibrated confidence values, and the option for zero data retention. Time to build with structured outputs at scale!

Kinda crazy how many people submit their sensitive information to frontier models. Tax documents, health data, financial transactions etc. Built this as a proof of concept. Venice AI is on a similar wavelength where they limit identity connected to prompts, but not information in the prompts.

To get started, tell your agents to build an app with https://github.com/luisrudge/omasharp and they'll do the rest!
