GoModel is an open-source AI gateway written in Go that exposes a single OpenAI-compatible API while routing requests to OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, xAI, Azure OpenAI, Ollama, and more. The standout feature is its two-layer caching system: exact-match caching for verbatim repeated queries plus semantic vector caching for similar ones — meaning you stop paying twice for the same question phrased slightly differently. That alone can meaningfully cut API bills for production apps. Beyond routing, GoModel adds built-in Prometheus observability, an audit logging pipeline, content filtering guardrails, full streaming support, file management across providers, and batch job handling. It deploys via Docker Compose with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or SQLite backends. Configuration is environment variable and YAML-based, making it CI-friendly from day one. The Go-native implementation is what sets this apart from incumbents like LiteLLM (Python). Lower memory footprint, higher concurrent request throughput, and single-binary deployment make it genuinely attractive for teams that care about infrastructure costs as much as API costs.

WUPHF
Open-source multi-agent 'office' — AI teams that think together

WUPHF is an open-source orchestration system that turns multiple LLM agents into a visible, collaborative 'office.' Spawn a CEO, PM, engineers, and designers as agents running simultaneously — all able to @mention each other, claim tasks, and maintain a shared wiki of knowledge. It's like GitHub for agent thought. The architecture is cleverly frugal: instead of accumulating context, WUPHF uses fresh sessions per turn with Claude's prompt caching, hitting 97% cache hit rates and dropping five-turn sessions to roughly $0.06. Agents are push-driven — they only wake when notified, meaning zero idle token burn. A dual memory system (per-agent Notebooks + shared Wiki) keeps the team aligned across sessions. Built by indie developers and spotted trending on Hacker News, WUPHF targets the rapidly growing segment of builders who want more than one AI "employee" but don't want to pay enterprise orchestration prices. Telegram bridge, Composio integration, and a clean web UI at localhost:7891 round out the package.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is what I've wanted since LiteLLM started feeling bloated. Go binary, semantic caching, Prometheus metrics out of the box — it's a proper infrastructure-grade gateway, not a weekend hack. Multi-provider fallback alone is worth the Docker setup time.”
“The token-efficiency story alone makes this worth trying — $0.06 for a five-agent session is remarkable. The @mention graph and shared wiki are genuinely novel patterns that every multi-agent framework should steal.”
“GoModel is entering a crowded space against LiteLLM, PortKey, and OpenRouter, all of which have months or years of production hardening. The semantic cache sounds great in theory but adds latency on misses and requires careful embedding model management. Wait for v1.0 and some battle scars before running this in prod.”
“The 'AI office' metaphor sounds fun until you're debugging why the agent-CEO contradicted the agent-PM three turns ago. Fresh-session architecture fixes cost but breaks longitudinal reasoning — agents can't truly learn from mistakes across days.”
“As model counts explode and companies run multi-provider strategies to hedge against outages and costs, a fast, open gateway becomes core infrastructure — not optional tooling. Go's concurrency model is genuinely the right choice here. This could become the nginx of LLM routing.”
“This is what agent-native software development looks like before the big platforms catch up. The Telegram bridge and push-driven activation pattern hint at a world where your 'team' lives in your chat app, not a browser tab.”
“Even for non-infra folks, the semantic cache means your AI-powered creative tools get dramatically cheaper at scale. Drop this in front of your image gen or copy gen pipeline and the cost curve bends fast. Love that it's MIT and self-hostable.”
“Being able to spin up a dedicated 'creative director' agent alongside your developer agents is genuinely useful. The visible activity stream means you can actually see the creative process unfolding in real-time.”
