Show HN: Build and deploy AI agents from your own data in under 60 seconds
botthebuilder.netHi HN,
I built Bot The Builder to solve a recurring problem I kept facing while building chatbots for clients: every time, I had to rebuild the same RAG stack, embed the same knowledge base, and deploy from scratch—even for small use cases.
So I created a tool that lets you build and deploy AI agents from your own data (PDFs, docs, URLs, text) in under 60 seconds — no code required. You can embed the agent in any website or access it via API.
### Why I built it: - Most “AI chatbot builders” are either locked down or require complex LangChain pipelines. - I needed something fast, modular, and production-ready that doesn’t hide the underlying architecture. - This is a developer-first tool, not a marketing product.
### How it works: 1. Upload your own content or paste a URL 2. The system creates embeddings (using OpenAI or local models, FAISS vector store) 3. You instantly get a deployed agent with memory + context 4. You can access the agent via the url:https://botthebuilder.net/hosted-chatbot/love.com if built for love.com or embed it directly on your app/site
### Tech stack: - Vector DB: FAISS - Embeddings: OpenAI + Local model support - Frontend: React + Vite - Backend: Python / FastAPI - Architecture is modular — not tied to a single provider
### Use cases I'm seeing: - Internal knowledge assistants for startups - Agencies building AI bots for client websites - Solo founders launching niche AI products - Automated onboarding, support, or documentation agents
### Live demo: https://BotTheBuilder.net
It's still early, so I'm looking for feedback from builders here: - What features would make it actually useful in your workflow? - Would you want more control over the agent’s chain-of-thought/system prompt?
Happy to answer any technical questions about the architecture or roadmap. Feedback and criticism are very welcome.
