We are building machine learning products for a fixed weekly fee. We saw that search engines are the most requested type of product.

Nowadays, with https://streamlit.io/, https://typesense.org/, or http://jina.ai/ (which are open source) and some coding skills you can build state-of-the-art quality search engines. 10 years ago a team of engineers was required for this.

Some examples,
