My latest work
Leo RAG System
A production-grade RAG chatbot for the Leo Movement that answers only from uploaded documents, citing the title, page and section behind every answer. Hybrid retrieval merges vector and keyword search, a second LLM pass audits each claim against its sources, and answers stream token by token. Built with FastAPI, Qdrant, Supabase and OpenAI.

KeepWarm
Keeps Render free-tier services awake so visitors never wait for a cold start. Pings each service on its own schedule inside daily keep-warm windows, fits them into Render's 750 free instance hours, flags cold starts and streams every request to a live dashboard. Includes Slack/Discord alerts and Prometheus metrics, with Express as its only runtime dependency.
