## Technical Decisions Log
|
|
|
|
**February 12, 2026:**
|
|
- **Decision:** Use FastAPI for backend (proven with UTILEN)
|
|
- **Rationale:** Team familiar, fast, good async support
|
|
- **Decision:** Use React/Next.js for frontend
|
|
- **Rationale:** Modern, good ecosystem, SSR capabilities
|
|
- **Decision:** Start with Claude API (not self-hosted models)
|
|
- **Rationale:** Faster development, proven quality, can add self-hosted later
|
|
- **Decision:** PostgreSQL for metadata/users
|
|
- **Rationale:** Reliable, team familiar, good performance
|
|
- **Decision:** Self-hosted first, cloud later
|
|
- **Rationale:** Matches go-to-market strategy, proves data sovereignty

## Known Risks & Mitigation
|
|
|
|
**Risk:** Development takes longer than expected
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Start extremely simple, iterate based on usage
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Use AI to accelerate development (meta!)
|
|
|
|
**Risk:** Vector Zulu team doesn't adopt
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Involve team early in design
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Solve real pain points they have today
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Make it obviously better than current workflows
|
|
|
|
**Risk:** AI costs too high
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Implement caching strategies
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Use Sonnet for simple queries, Opus for complex
|
|
- **Mitigation:** Monitor costs closely, optimize prompts
