LLM based autonomous agent that does online comprehensive research on any given topic

English | 中文 | 日本語 | 한국어

GPT Researcher is an autonomous agent designed for comprehensive online research on a variety of tasks.

The agent can produce detailed, factual and unbiased research reports, with customization options for focusing on relevant resources and outlines. Inspired by the recent Plan-and-Solve and RAG papers, GPT Researcher addresses issues of misinformation, speed, determinism and reliability, offering a more stable performance and increased speed through parallelized agent work, as opposed to synchronous operations.

Our mission is to empower individuals and organizations with accurate, unbiased, and factual information by leveraging the power of AI.

Why GPT Researcher?

To form objective conclusions for manual research tasks can take time, sometimes weeks to find the right resources and information.
Current LLMs are trained on past and outdated information, with heavy risks of hallucinations, making them almost irrelevant for research tasks.
Current LLMs are limited to short token outputs…

6. Digger

Digger is an open-source alternative to Terraform Cloud. It makes it easy to run terraform plan and apply in the CI / CD platform you already have, such as Github Actions.

⭐️ Digger on Github

diggerhq / digger

Digger is an open source IaC orchestration tool. Digger allows you to run IaC in your existing CI pipeline ⚡️

Community Slack | Schedule a call | Demo Video | Docs

CI/CD for Terraform is tricky. To make life easier, specialised CI systems aka TACOS exist - Terraform Cloud, Spacelift, Atlantis, etc.

But why have 2 CI systems? Why not reuse the async jobs infrastructure with compute, orchestration, logs, etc of your existing CI?

Digger runs terraform natively in your CI. This is:

Secure, because cloud access secrets aren't shared with a third-party
Cost-effective, because you are not paying for additional compute just to run your terraform

Features

Terraform plan and apply in pull request comments
Private runners - thanks to the fact that there are no separate runners! Your existing CI's compute environment is used
Open Policy Agent (OPA) support for RBAC
PR-level locks (on top of Terraform native state locks, similar to Atlantis) to avoid race conditions across multiple PRs
Terragrunt, Workspaces, multiple Terraform versions, static analysis…

Wasp (Web Application Specification) is a Rails-like framework for React, Node.js, and Prisma.
Build your app in a day and deploy it with a single CLI command!

Why is Wasp awesome

🚀 Quick start: Due to its expressiveness, you can create and deploy a production-ready web app from scratch with very few lines of concise, consistent, declarative code.
😌 No boilerplate: By abstracting away complex full-stack features, there is less boilerplate code. That means less code to maintain and understand! It also means easier upgrades.
🔓 No lock-in: You can deploy the Wasp app anywhere you like. There is no lock-in into specific providers; you have full control over the code (and can actually check it out in .wasp/ dir if you are interested ).
