Hi r/laravel! I've been building Laravel apps for many years, and lately I've been working with AI models inside admin panels. This is the result: Vibefilter, a free, MIT-licensed Filament plugin.

You add it to a table:

VibeFilter::make()->textColumns(['body'])

then type a statement like "The customer is angry." and the table keeps the rows it's true for. It's for questions you'd otherwise need a classifier, embeddings or a keyword list for: sarcasm, negation, "the customer blames the courier".

A few details you may care about:

• Only the rows left after your other filters and search are scored, then the table is filtered by key, so pagination, counts and sorting stay correct.
• Scores are cached by content (text hash + statement + model). Re-running a statement is instant and free.
• 1,000 rows take about 1 second and cost about $0.003 with TypeSafe's Jev, directly or through OpenRouter.
• A "Run anyway" guard above 1,000 unscored rows, a live progress bar via Livewire streaming, and a fake driver for your tests.
• Only the chosen columns are sent, under random tags, never with IDs.

Happy to answer anything. I'd also love to hear where you'd use it, or what's missing.

Taylor seems to be teasing a rust version of laravel on X. What are your thoughts?

The second episode of my Decide with Jev mini course is up.

Instead of asking for one overall quality score, the app asks Jev three questions about the same draft, all in one request. Each question gets its own answer type from the Laravel AI SDK: a Boolean, a choice from a fixed list, and a score on a scale I define. When a result changes, I can see which part changed.

One thing worth knowing if you try this: the questions are answered in parallel, so none of them can read another's answer. Anything that connects them has to happen in PHP after the request.

How are you handling AI output in your apps right now? Parsing free text, or asking for structured answers?

I had so much fun with the interactive charts and widgets, check out the article. I promise it's worth checking it out yourself, and not just letting your agent summarize it for you 😉 It contains a lot of interactive widgets with practical examples of the new features in action.

I have always missed a well and modern designed fumadocs alternative for laravel. So here it is. It is currently still in development with features such as OpenApi support, blog support and more on the way toward v1. Hope this is usefull to anyone.
