    TIL people still fall for eh I mean use Langchain. Sorry, low value comment; I don’t know how to do that differently; it is such bad garbage since day one and strangely it did not improve. Sorry anyway for the comment, at least it was not LLM generated?

      There's like 1000 langchain alternatives and none are good, they're all vibe-coded unstable projects.

      I use Apache Burr but it's not as good as LangChain. I just don't want to use software whose website has a pricing page if it's not a SAAS.

      To make your comment more high value, could you explain why you think langchain is bad?

      I have a hard time keeping up with the space. Is langchain old news? Is there a page that kind of shows what the status quo for tooling is?

        +1 would love to know as well. I have generally found the open source space to be lacking in this area and hoping it catches up!

      Yes, I also thought it's crap the moment I saw they need langchain to develop a harness.

      Instead of spending half the comment reflecting on your post why not point out what you don’t like about it or some better alternatives?

    I read a buzz word "Knowledge AI Platform" but I did not see any specific feature helpful for knowledge management like verification or transparency. It is more like any generic Agent builder. Maybe it meant to justify building something internally.

    Somebody probably mentioned this already or maybe its just me but: The "endless scroll" this page does is neat, to say the least.-

    Ahhh I built an internal set of agents to run our company (finances, all info in the karpathy-style LLMWiki and a database of clients, contracts, billing, time tracking, all managed by MCPs, etc) and it's also called Kai (company name is Kaizen)

    Happy to be in such good company!

      All hand written or did you have any underlying libraries that you used?

    This site could use a bit more line height, more paragraphs, or less text overall.

    oh not these guys again. These are just so idiotic.

    Spotify built some nonsense like this too and made ridiculous claims that it saves 90 percent of tokens. I guess anything goes these days.
