FridgeKit — Full Stack Telegram Bot
The most technically ambitious build to date. A kitchen inventory bot with three-step onboarding (language, location, diet), full English and Polish localization, dietary preference tracking, budget tiers, and fridge/pantry inventory management.
The architecture: three Docker containers working together. The main bot handles user interaction and business logic via grammY. A dedicated OCR microservice processes receipt photos through a two-pass pipeline — Tesseract for initial text extraction, Claude Vision for intelligent item parsing and categorization. A separate inventory microservice manages the persistent storage layer.
fridgekit.com launched alongside the bot with Telegram Stars payment integration. Pay-as-you-go pricing — no subscription tiers, no commitments. Users pay for what they use.
Automation News — Content Automation Bot
New bot built from scratch and deployed to production. Aggregates automation platform news — Make, Zapier, n8n, IFTTT, Pabbly, and more — from RSS feeds combined with Perplexity AI content discovery. Posts to its Telegram channel on configurable intervals with randomized selection to maintain feed variety. AI-enriched summaries on every post.
paulpela.com — Website Redesign
Personal landing page redesigned from scratch using the GlacierPhonk typography system. ASCII art header, full project showcase with Telegram channel icons. Responsive layout with accessible markup. Deployed to EC2 via GitHub Actions.
WP Jobs — Feedback Loop
/feedback command shipped. Channel members can now submit feedback directly through the bot — closing the loop between users and the development pipeline.
