Architecture

Menu nutrition is a unique-hash problem. Deduplicate by brand and dish, cache LLM rows locally, fan out onto one DynamoDB item per store, and keep spend on the unique set — a full marketplace catalog for about four dollars.

What we are building with AetherCrew — a supervisor-graph AI team with hard human gates, pay-per-use compute, and a scientific operating loop from trigger to digest.

How a food-delivery catalog API on ECS adds semantic store and dish search: in-process bge-small ONNX, vectors on the same DynamoDB items, SearchVectors for retrieval, and a fail-open query parser. No embed sidecar, no second vector store.

Patterns for a delivery orchestration API: Redis GEO for driver presence, event-driven assignment, soft offers, and ops visibility—without overbuilding day one.
