Build LLM-Powered Applications
IPWorks LLM is a component library for adding large language model (LLM) capabilities to your applications. Components for the OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini APIs cover chat, streaming, tool calling, embeddings, token counting, and model listing. LLMClient also supports services that implement any of these APIs, including Ollama, vLLM, DeepSeek, Groq, and Azure OpenAI. The OpenAI component supports endpoints that implement the OpenAI Chat Completions API.
One API for Every Provider
The LLMClient component holds the conversation, the tools, and the reply in a provider-neutral form, and translates them to and from the API of the selected provider. Switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini by changing a single property, or continue an existing conversation with a different provider. Messages can include text, images, and files, and replies can be constrained to a JSON Schema for structured output.
Native Provider Components
The OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini components model each provider's API directly, so every feature the API defines is available as it appears on the wire. Point them at a gateway or proxy that speaks the same protocol, or at a locally hosted model that requires no API key.
Content Credentials (C2PA)
The C2PASigner component creates a signed C2PA Manifest that records who produced an asset, which tool produced it, and whether generative AI was involved, and embeds it directly into JPEG, PNG, and PDF files. The C2PAVerifier component reads those manifests and reports the result of each validation check: whether the signature is intact, whether the signer is trusted, and whether the content still matches what was signed.
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini
Components for the OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini APIs, including services that implement any of them.
One API for Every Provider
The LLMClient component translates a single conversation format to each provider, so the same code works with all of them.
Tool Calling and Streaming
Let models call functions in your application, and display replies as they are generated.
Content Credentials
Sign JPEG, PNG, and PDF files with C2PA Manifests that record how content was produced and whether AI was involved.
Provenance Verification
Validate C2PA Manifests against trust lists and confirm content has not been altered since it was signed.
Uniform & Extensible Design
Very easy to use, with a uniform, intuitive, and extensible design. Common component interfaces across platforms and technologies.
