AiEditor — An open source AI-powered rich text editor. Out-of-the-box, Fully Framework Supported,Markdown Friendly; Support private deployment and private LLMs API key;
Hi All 👋 We’re super excited to share AiEditor with the amazing Product Hunt community! 🚀
The AI era has arrived, and AIGC is booming.
In 2023, we began selecting a suitable AI-rich text editor for our products, and found excellent choices like CKEditor and TinyMCE. However, they all have some problems:
CKEditor and TinyMCE are based on GPL open source licenses, which are not very user-friendly. When using these editors, we need to be careful about GPL infection.
In addition, their AI features require the purchase of paid plug-ins and high commercial licensing fees. At the same time, the more users there are, the crazier the charges.
Not only that,the AI and team collaboration features require server-side components, but their servers cannot be deployed privately. This poses a privacy challenge to our data and user data.
Therefore, we decided to develop AIEditor to solve these problems.
🔒 1. When using AI features, developers can choose AI service providers by themselves and connect using private API keys.
✨ 2. AI features can be used by proxying requests to the private server of the LLMs API.
👍 3. Both the open source version and the commercial version do not limit the number of users or applications, which means that the growth of users will not increase the licensing fee.
In addition, AIEditor is based on Web Component technology and supports any front-end framework such as Vue, React, Angular, etc. AIEditor not only supports traditional WYSIWYG writing, but also supports Markdown writing habits.
🔥🔥🔥 Most importantly, compared with GPL, AIEditor adopts a more relaxed LGPL open source license. Integrating AIEditor with npm i aieditor can eliminate concerns about GPL infection.
If you are also looking for an AI editor to develop your AI CMS or AI knowledge base and other scenario products involving AI writing, then AIEditor will be an excellent choice.
AiEditor is a standout open-source tool that combines AI with a rich text editor. It’s fully framework-supported and markdown-friendly, offering seamless integration and customization. With options for private deployment and the use of private LLMs API keys, it provides flexibility and control for various projects.
Thanks for your attention, Ankur.
Openai key is very important. If you use it in an internal environment, there is no problem. But if AIEditor is used externally, we need to protect the openai key. Currently, the best way is to use a proxy: in AIEditor, do not configure the openai key, only configure the proxy URL address, and when the user requests our proxy URL address, we let the proxy bring the openai key and request to the openai server.
Hope it helps you.
