Project Parliament is a FastAPI + vanilla JS web app that runs a structured 7-step deliberation workflow to help developers find open-source project ideas matching their skills and goals. Multiple AI models (via OpenRouter: GPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Qwen) independently propose ideas, then specialized agents critique market viability, assess builder fit, evaluate open-source sustainability, and synthesize a final recommendation with a backup. A 'Performance Review' step scores each model's contribution. Input your background and constraints; get back a grounded project proposal with actionable first steps.

Sup AI is an ensemble AI assistant that runs your query through 339 language models simultaneously, measures per-segment confidence across all responses, and synthesizes a final answer that amplifies agreement and suppresses likely hallucinations. The team claims a 52.15% score on Humanity's Last Exam (HLE) — 7.41 percentage points above the single best model — which, if verified, would make it the highest-scoring system on the benchmark to date. The underlying mechanism works like an LLM panel: each model votes on sub-claims within the response, confidence is estimated by agreement density, and the final output surfaces high-confidence segments while flagging uncertain ones. It's designed to reduce hallucination rate on factual tasks, not improve reasoning per se — the models in the ensemble aren't doing collaborative chain-of-thought, they're voting on outputs. Sup AI was built by Ken Mueller (Stanford, CEO) and Scott Mueller (AI Research Scientist) and launched on Product Hunt today. Pricing starts with $10 in free credits, no auto-charge, with a credit card required to start. The HLE benchmark claim is the headline and will face scrutiny — if verified, this is a meaningful research result. If it's cherry-picked, it's still a usable product with a differentiated architecture.
Reviewer scorecard
“The seven-step structure is the product here, not the code. Having a dedicated 'Market Skeptic' and 'Builder Fit Judge' agent in the pipeline catches the two most common ways indie projects fail before you start. The model performance scoring is a clever meta-feature that actually helps you pick the right model for each step going forward.”
“The HLE claim needs independent verification, but the underlying ensemble approach is architecturally sound for factual Q&A tasks. Running 339 models is expensive — pricing will be the gating factor for production use. The $10 free credit is a fair trial.”
“Parliament suffers from the fundamental problem of all AI ideation tools: the models converge on plausible-sounding but generic ideas that have been tried a hundred times. 'A CLI for X' or 'a SaaS wrapper around Y' will dominate every output regardless of your unique background. Self-knowledge and market research beat any multi-model pipeline for finding good ideas.”
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. A 7.41 point jump on HLE via ensembling — without publishing methodology — smells like benchmark gaming. The latency of running 339 models in parallel is also a real concern for anything other than async research tasks.”
“The 'parliament' pattern — expand, consolidate, debate, converge — is a generalizable workflow architecture, not just for project ideas. Watch for this deliberation structure to appear in legal research, medical diagnosis, and policy analysis tools. This indie project is a clear proof-of-concept for how multi-model systems should be structured.”
“Model ensembling is an underexplored direction in the race to reduce hallucination. If Sup AI's approach scales, it could be more durable than fine-tuning individual models — you get the wisdom of the crowd across model families, training data, and architectures simultaneously.”
“As someone who gets paralyzed by too many project ideas, having an opinionated pipeline force a winner is genuinely useful. The 'primary + backup recommendation with actionable steps' output format is well-designed for actually starting something. Setup requires your own API keys which is a friction point, but the local-first approach means your ideas stay private.”
“For creative work, ensemble outputs tend to regress toward the mean — you get the most-agreed-upon version of something, which is usually the least interesting version. This is a tool for factual accuracy, not creativity. I'd stick with a single strong model for writing.”
