Hi everyone,
I'm currently exploring how tools like Boardy.ai technically work under the hood. From the outside, Boardy.ai seems to integrate with platforms like LinkedIn and automate outreach or data collection through AI-driven interactions. I'm really curious about the architecture and stack choices behind such a system, and I'm hoping the community can help me break it down. Here are a few questions I’m trying to understand:
- How might Boardy.ai connect to LinkedIn, given LinkedIn’s API restrictions? Are they using browser automation, cookies/session injection, or third-party proxies?
- What kind of backend structure (Node.js, Python, serverless?) is suitable for managing user sessions, message parsing, and AI integration?
- How is AI (like GPT) embedded into the user flow — real-time vs queued responses?
- Do you think services like Vapi.ai or Puppeteer are part of the pipeline for voice or browser-based automation?
- How would one handle scalability and data privacy concerns, especially when dealing with personal LinkedIn messages?
If anyone has experience building LinkedIn-integrated tools or automation platforms like this, I’d love to hear your thoughts or see architecture examples.
Thanks in advance!
