For anyone thinking about applications of langchain and pinecone but who are looking for something more turn-key check out https://jiggy.ai
The core is actually open source as well, allowing you to take your data back out via sqlite and hnswlib (https://github.com/jiggy-ai/hnsqlite)
LangChain has moved fast and made a decent first pass at a solution to the problem of LLM orchestration. But I'm skeptical that the first solution will be the best solution, and we should keep an open mind to other approaches.
Personally, I like the more declarative approach that Microsoft is taking with guidance [0]. The two projects are not substitutable at the moment, and might even complement each other, but I'm weary of building a new ecosystem on a possibly overly-complicated first pass solution to the orchestration problem.

I used langchain to make a pretty basic LLM augmented with a (free) local vector database: https://github.com/mkwatson/chat_any_site
We’re building “Langchain for Ruby” under the current working name of “Langchain.rb”: https://github.com/andreibondarev/langchainrb
People that have contributed on the project thus far each have at least a decade of experience programming in Ruby. We’re trying our best to build an abstraction layer on top all of the common emerging AI/ML techniques, tools, and providers. We’re also focusbig on building an excellent developer experience that Ruby developers love and have gotten to expect.
Unlike the Python project, as it’s been pointed out here a countless number of times, we’d like to avoid deeply nested class structures that make it incredibly difficult to track and extend.
We’ve been pondering over the “what does Rails for Machine Learning look like?” question, and we’re taking a stab at answering this question.
We’re hyper-focused on the open source community and the developer community at large. All feedback/ideas/contributions/criticism are welcome and encouraged!
