Motorola has revealed a little more about its upcoming folding phone, and all signs point toward a premium option - not the budget-friendlier alternative the category could use.

Show HN: Omni – Open-source workplace search and chat, built on Postgres

Hey HN!

Over the past few months, I've been working on building Omni - a workplace search and chat platform that connects to apps like Google Drive/Gmail, Slack, Confluence, etc. Essentially an open-source alternative to Glean, fully self-hosted.

I noticed that some orgs find Glean to be expensive and not very extensible. I wanted to build something that small to mid-size teams could run themselves, so I decided to build it all on Postgres (ParadeDB to be precise) and pgvector. No Elasticsearch, or dedicated vector databases. I figured Postgres is more than capable of handling the level of scale required.

To bring up Omni on your own infra, all it takes is a single `docker compose up`, and some basic configuration to connect your apps and LLMs.

What it does:

- Syncs data from all connected apps and builds a BM25 index (ParadeDB) and HNSW vector index (pgvector) - Hybrid search combines results from both - Chat UI where the LLM has tools to search the index - not just basic RAG - Traditional search UI - Users bring their own LLM provider (OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini) - Connectors for Google Workspace, Slack, Confluence, Jira, HubSpot, and more - Connector SDK to build your own custom connectors

Omni is in beta right now, and I'd love your feedback, especially on the following:

- Has anyone tried self-hosting workplace search and/or AI tools, and what was your experience like? - Any concerns with the Postgres-only approach at larger scales?

Happy to answer any questions!
