You can focus on working, not prompting.\n\nYou can think of it as a free Chatgpt (the interface/frontend) alternative for your everyday work.\n\nI would be very grateful for any help, testing, feedback and/or bug reports.\n\nWhat's shown here is just my current implementation. But with your help and feedback, we can add or adjust features to further this mission.\n\nThank you for reading.\n\nWebsite: [https://sunnylich.github.io/OpenWand/#overview](https://sunnylich.github.io/OpenWand/#overview)\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49469681](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49469681)\n\nPoints: 1\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-openwand-a-mission-to-remove-chat-interface-from-working-with-ai", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/SunnyLich/OpenWand", "published_at": "2026-08-27 19:04:39+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-27 19:19:05.838535+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-products", "ai-tools"], "entities": ["OpenWand", "Sunny Lich", "Hacker News", "ChatGPT"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-openwand-a-mission-to-remove-chat-interface-from-working-with-ai", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-openwand-a-mission-to-remove-chat-interface-from-working-with-ai.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-openwand-a-mission-to-remove-chat-interface-from-working-with-ai.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-openwand-a-mission-to-remove-chat-interface-from-working-with-ai.jsonld"}}
