The Lab

Live infrastructure. Real data. Things that break.

Building in public.

This page is a live window into the infrastructure running behind Proof of Boredom — AWS services, a local Ollama server, a ComfyUI image generator, and a clickstream pipeline feeding into Athena and QuickSight. Each panel below is a real integration, not a mockup.

Meeting Prep · AI Brief Préparation de réunion · IA

Enter a name before your next meeting. SerpAPI runs three searches (general, LinkedIn, news), feeds the results to Claude Haiku on AWS Bedrock, and returns a structured brief — background, priorities, conversation angles — in seconds. Entrez un nom avant votre prochaine réunion. SerpAPI effectue trois recherches, envoie les résultats à Claude Haiku sur AWS Bedrock, et retourne une fiche structurée en quelques secondes.

Clickstream Dashboard

Every click, scroll, and section view on this site is captured by analytics.js and sent to API Gateway. A Lambda function writes each batch directly to S3 as partitioned NDJSON — no Firehose needed. An hourly EventBridge cron triggers an aggregator Lambda that writes stats.json to S3, served live below.
