Latest News
Antirion repository recorded a security/dependency maintenance release commit updating zstd crates past RustSec advisories.
Antirion v0.1.1 released on GitHub.
Published Building AI Agents That Sound Human, an article on use-case-driven prompting, AI evaluation, regression cases and human supervision.
Published A Comprehensive Guide to Implementing Neural Networks, including a from-scratch MNIST digit-recognition implementation.
Products & Services
Open-source AI/LLM gateway implemented as a Rust binary with a built-in admin console. It routes, secures, budgets and observes model calls across OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock and other providers; it is Apache-2.0 licensed and the project says there is no enterprise edition.
A Python Model Context Protocol server for searching people, companies and jobs, scraping profiles and returning structured data through MCP-compatible AI clients.
A zero-configuration Python MCP server for searching posts, browsing subreddits, scraping user activity and returning structured Reddit data without API keys.
An async-ready Python library for extracting Reddit posts, comments, users and subreddits with typed models and no API keys, listed among Elias Biondo's pinned GitHub repositories.
Market Position
The personal practice is positioned at the intersection of AI engineering, product engineering and design rather than as a conventional software company. Within his Antirion project, he explicitly positions the gateway against Bifrost and LiteLLM, claiming lower overhead and memory use, higher sustained throughput and a built-in console in a single Rust binary; the repository also tags it as a LiteLLM/Bifrost alternative.
Leadership
Founders
Elias Biondo
AI engineer and computer scientist based in São Paulo. His official profile describes work across AI agents, machine learning, full-stack applications, connected hardware and interactive design; GitHub identifies him as a founding engineer at Alia. He also describes himself on LinkedIn search results as a former technical founder with 5+ years building production software systems.
Founding Story
Elias presents the practice behind eliasbiondo.com as independent engineering and creative technology rather than as a separately incorporated company. The stated motivation is to work where intelligent systems meet human experience and turn complex ideas into useful products and experiences; the site does not publish a formal company founding date or incorporation story.
Business Model
Revenue Model
Elias's portfolio is an independent practice and does not publish a separate monetization model. Antirion is presented as open-source Apache-2.0 software; its site explicitly says the open-source build contains the platform features and that there is no enterprise edition.
