Was building LLMs for finance and here is my demo: https://project-hermes-ai.vercel.app
Did so many things… but no avail. Now I can either double down on that and try to sell to B2B like Banks or others who don’t trust OpenAI with their data but wants on-premises LLMs with custom data pipelines.
Now I can either double down or just curious should I start building an open-source version of perplexity. The CEO of perplexity seems to be doing more press than any real improvements. Also I think I can build more features.
What do you think?
And you are building said LLMs with what money and what GPUs?
Not LLMs precisely but the data pipelines
Got it. I think finance would be a better bet. Imagine if you can make the AI di balance sheet s and income statements that be pretty cool.
Why not get on twitter and promote it on there just like the ceo of ppx? And post on hn if you haven't already? Screw yc, it ain't the end of the world.
I hate the CEO of plz, feels like a scam. That’s why I am thinking of building an Open-source version of Perplexity to show how simple it is!
I like the tool but i don't know a whole lot about the tech and I do get snake oily vibes from his promotion on twitter.
I'm rooting for your success man!
It's hard to say without looking at the pitch deck and how you sell it. Just curious , what are your and your co-founders' credentials ?
My close friend startup (incubated in EF) and got picked by YC , which I'm certain mainly owing to the eye-catching credentials.
Worked for 2 YC startups, he sold his first startup for $700k... No prestigious university
Ah, okay. My impression is that YC gives a lot more weight to credentials than the idea itself. Perhaps try to get a co-founder with a fancy degree if you are still interested in the YC tag
I thought you were building Duolingo for Indian language
Talked to a lot of people, the monetisation scope is very limited and there must be a reason no one else is attempting it???
Ya I agree the only way to monetize this is by using ads model.
Taxation in India is very complex. You can easily get free users and data if you build an ai agent that can do your work.
Rent receipts, creation, interest calculation from account staments etc.
You should build one on top of AA framework.
Gain users and gain monetary traction. Then see many folks will come.
What tech stack you are using for llm stuff?
LlamaIndex, NextJs, Assistants API from OpenAI, Vertex AI from Google … lot of experiments
Hey guys, as I said in my last post, I am think of building an open-source version of Perplexity to show people how easy it is.
But with all the existing tools available what features would you want? Anything specific? What is missing? ...
Hey guys, I just wanted to ask for some help
As you all know, I started building the open-source version of perplexity and have made huge progress but I am just curious if anyone even wants it?

Hey fellow comers, just showing my progress. I will launch by next month hopefully.

Hey everyone, I'm currently thinking of building an AI chat interface that brings all the popular LLMs like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc. under one platform.
But I'm unsure if there's a need for any such product. Could you please help m...
