Discover frameworks and AI models

Open-source packages and AI models are invaluable as they not only reduce costs but also foster community-driven improvements, enabling users to customize solutions to fit specific needs.

By discovering these open-source frameworks and AI models, users can tap into a wealth of resources to enhance their projects, streamline workflows, and contribute to the broader AI community.

1 - Use DroidGPT

DroidGPT derives data from third-party Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and coordinates it with Endor Labs’ proprietary risk data to help you to quickly and easily research open source software packages.

  1. Sign into Endor Labs application and click Droid GPT under Discover.

  2. From DROID GPT, choose an Ecosystem.

  3. Type your questions in the search bar and click Ask DroidGPT. Here are a few examples:

    • What are the best logging packages for Java?
    • What AI packages have most permissive license?
    • Which GO packages have least known vulnerabilities?
    • What are a few packages similar to log4j?

You’ll receive instant answers. All results include risk scores revealing the quality, popularity, trustworthiness, and security of each package.

3 - Search for AI Models

An AI model is a computational system designed to simulate human intelligence by performing tasks such as recognizing patterns, making decisions, predicting outcomes, or generating content. Many open source AI models are freely available for use, modification, and distribution. Just like dependencies, these AI models can bring operational and security risks in the organization that uses them. Gaining visibility into these risks can minimize the vulnerabilities introduced by them.

Endor Labs picks the top ten thousand open source AI models available on Hugging Face and assigns Endor scores to them, so that you can make informed decisions before using them in your organization. See Endor Labs scores.

To look for AI models, navigate to Discover > DroidGPT from the side bar and select HUGGING FACE.

  • Type in the search bar to look for AI Models and click Search AI/LLM Models.
