Show HN: Parallel AI agents that research a stock simultaneously

https://dapto.ai

Hi HN,I’ve been working on a system that runs multiple AI agents in parallel to perform structured research instead of generating a single summary response.One use case I tested recently was stock research.When you properly research a stock like NVIDIA, you usually open multiple tabs:- Financials - Earnings reports - Analyst sentiment - Competitors - Recent news - Risks - Market positioningMost...

Totally agree, context-aware misuse is a big gap, and one we’re actively exploring. We’ve built session-level risk tracking and some early logic to detect drift over time, but it’s definitely still evolving.

LLM security isn’t a one-and-done, it’s an ongoing process, especially as attack patterns keep getting more subtle.

If you’ve seen other use cases or edge cases worth considering, we’d love to hear them. And feel free to ask more questions, really appreciate your input!

Ask HN: What's missing in AI prompt validation and security tools?

We've been building a middleware layer that acts like a firewall for LLMs, it sits between the user and the model (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, etc.) and intercepts prompts and responses in real time.It blocks prompt injection, flags hallucinations, masks PII, and adds logging + metadata tagging for compliance and audit.But we’re hitting the classic startup blind spot: we don’t want to build in a...

Show HN: Dapto – Real-Time Firewall for AI Prompts and Responses

https://dapto.ai

Most companies are excited about GenAI, but scared to use it.Why? Because they have no control over what the AI sees, says, or shares.We kept seeing this problem in enterprise GenAI rollouts. Tools like GPT or Claude are getting embedded into dashboards, chatbots, and workflows, but there are no guardrails in place.So we built Dapto. A drop-in firewall that sits between users and the model. It...

Thanks for checking this out, happy to answer any questions or feedback. Also curious what others here are using today to secure GenAI deployments? Especially anything for prompt validation, Prompt Injection or hallucination detection?

Show HN: Dapto – AI Prompt and Response Firewall for Enterprises

Hi HN, We’ve been working on a problem we kept seeing in enterprise GenAI rollouts:As tools like GPT, Claude, and Gemini get embedded into dashboards, support tools, and business systems, most organizations have no control or context over what the AI sees, says, or shares.That creates serious risks: - Hallucinated answers - Prompt injection attacks - Data and PII exposure - Industry...

This looks solid, being able to search across diagrams and videos is a big win. Curious how well it performs with noisy scanned PDFs or annotated images.
This is a cool idea. Feels like a handy tool for streamlining thoughts without switching contexts too much.

This looks super useful, especially with so many folks experimenting with local LLMs now. Curious how well it handles edge devices. Will give it a try!
This is absolutely a real problem, especially in enterprise GenAI rollouts where hallucinations and data leakage risks are non-negotiable.

We’ve run into scenarios where LLMs exposed internal data just through cleverly crafted prompts. Your ability to inspect and enforce policies at both prompt and response level is spot on.

If I were in your shoes, I’d seriously consider open-sourcing the data plane, especially since your control plane is where monetization lies. It builds trust, invites contributions, and positions you as a default in this emerging category.

And no, you're not early, you're exactly on time. Most companies are just realizing how much risk they’ve shipped into production.

This feels like a great blend of immersion and repetition. Curious if you’re doing any difficulty adaptation based on content complexity or vocabulary frequency?

I love minimal note tools, what’s your approach to syncing across devices without adding too much bloat?

Really cool project, the privacy-first angle and self-hosted design are a huge plus. Curious: have you run into any rate limits or session issues with the whatsmeow API, especially when used continuously by agents?
Curious: have you benchmarked it against any similar tools in other languages (like Go or Rust) for comparison?
