Good Accelerators offer this to their cohorts as a service. Techstars, which I was a part of, has a login-required site where founders post their experiences. Pretty useful to save you time with VCs that won’t participate in your round because of sector, size, competing portco
You’ll have to deal with lambda cold starts if you want it to be performant:
> When the Lambda service receives a request to run a function via the Lambda API, the service first prepares an execution environment. During this step, the service downloads the code for the function, which is stored in an internal Amazon S3 bucket (or in Amazon Elastic Container Registry if the function uses container packaging). It then creates an environment with the memory, runtime, and configuration specified. Once complete, Lambda runs any initialization code outside of the event handler before finally running the handler code.
Organizes data from real estate sales to help find an agent that will maximize your selling price. Eg, who will beat the Zestimate in Echo Park? I started it to help me find an agent to sell my house in LA and then decided to expand it across Los Angeles area neighbourhoods.
Also got me using Next JS, and deploying on Vercel.
This format was discussed in a HN first page post just this week:

This is why often when setting guidelines around particular behavior, standards that require some judgement may be better than rules that are to be followed blindly without any discretion.
Compare the rules around speed limits, don’t drive above 70mph (no judgement, could be too slow or too quick in a given situation) vs the one often observed and followed in reality, drive at a reasonable speed, roughly what others are driving at (use your judgement about what’s safe).
Was in similar situation, though Australian. I got a letter from an education/certification expertly that said my past experience as dev and education (also had a BA) was equivalent to a BS. Recommend you get an attorney/Peter to help you
I’m a founder that went through Techstars, not YC so maybe not exactly similar but accelerators want you to wait to Demo Day to have any investor talks while VCs want to get in early. Much like experienced used goods resellers will attempt to pick through yard sales early - no competition leads to investor friendlier terms. So an investor telling YC candidates not to wait to have these conversations isn’t exactly news. (Question whether waiting makes sense, but these are the dynamics.)
