Great work here. Are you using the legacy AppleScript interface [0] provided to Messages? I built an iMessage bot a long time ago that would respond automatically to messages you sent it and save notes for me using that and found it to be pretty reliable and easy to script but with a number of quirks and gotchas. I even bridged it out to Python to make it easier to work with.

The only limitation of course was that a Mac had to be always on, logged into the relevant account, connected to the internet, and running AppleScript to run it so there was no dream to scale it reliably/economically (as you are) much less even use it privately since the Mac was also a primary laptop. How are you getting past one device, one account scalability problem? Mac in cloud on the roadmap?

How do you consider you will scale this and at what cost? Have you checked into Apple's viewpoint and policies on this given they offer a business API [1] for a similar solution?
