Limited Promotional Channels for Restaurants

Small and independent restaurants lack effective digital platforms to showcase their happy hour specials and increase visibility. Existing review sites rarely highlight these promotions despite their ability to drive significant foot traffic during off-peak hours.

Intelligent Data Collection System

Developed a sophisticated data pipeline that combines web scraping with AI-powered data extraction. Using Python, BeautifulSoup, and LangChain with local LLMs (Ollama), the system autonomously harvests happy hour information from diverse web sources, processes unstructured data, and standardizes it for database storage—reducing manual data entry by over 85%.
