The model already found titles that score higher. Try one.
Hi HN,
I’m building Fairvisor — a programmable rate limiting and API governance layer.
The idea came from frustration with the usual setup:
hardcoded gateway configs
Redis counters everywhere
poor visibility into why requests were blocked
no connection between traffic policy and business rules
Fairvisor treats rate limiting as a governance problem instead of just traffic shaping.
Current focus:
edge enforcement
centralized policies
tenant/country-aware rules
explainable decisions
observability integrations
I’m also experimenting with a lock-free/event-driven dataplane instead of Redis-based counters.
Curious whether others see API governance becoming its own infrastructure layer, especially with AI agents and automated traffic growing.
Feedback and criticism welcome.

Built this solo over a weekend. Soft-launching before the HN post on Monday. If you scored a draft and the prediction either nailed it or whiffed, I want to know.
