“It's like Ruby on Rails... on rails. And the work that went into this is magnicifent. All the details, the heavy lifting, and edge cases are handled. Easily, the best money I've spent!”
Elliot Blatt
SaaS Founder
“I already started building 3 apps! I love how Instrumental lets me pick & choose the components I need insteady of starting with a kitchen sink on Rails.”
Stephen Ierodiaconou
Rails Developer
“I've used many Rails starter kits and this has been the best! No surprises! Just nice Rails conventions, partials, and generators. Best of all, I'm confident we can maintain and build on it!”
Min Soo Kim
Rails Agency Owner

AI-powered apps are the future—but wiring up OpenAI and Anthropic integrations in your Rails app by hand is complex and time-consuming work you shouldn't have to figure out from scratch.

Instrumental Components gives you battle-tested, drop-in components for the most popular LLM providers: OpenAI (maker of chatGPT) and Anthropic (maker of Claude).

No wrestling with APIs. No reinventing rate limiting. Just clean, reliable AI integrations built the way Rails apps should be.

Let's help you build cutting-edge, LLM-powered applications—without getting bogged down in the infrastructure complexity.
