DoorSmashOrPass

Inspiration

Ever rushed between classes, craving a quick bite but with no time to pick up food? We've all been there. We created DoorSmashOrPass to solve this everyday campus struggle—connecting hungry students with student couriers for fast, flexible food delivery, all while helping everyone make healthier choices.

What it does

DoorSmashOrPas is a campus food delivery platform that connects students with student couriers, creating flexible income opportunities while making food more accessible.

Key features include:

• Student-to-student delivery: Earn money delivering grab-and-go meals between classes
• Nutrition tracking: Automatic calorie, protein, carb, and fat tracking for every campus dining option
• AI nutrition coach: An agentic chatbot powered by voice and text that takes orders, answers nutrition questions, and provides personalized dietary guidance

How we built it

We used Claude Code and GitHub Copilot for rapid development and Lovable for our frontend, building a full-stack application with:

• Backend: AWS Lambda for serverless scraping workflows
• Voice AI: ElevenLabs for speech recognition and text-to-speech
• Data scraping: Automated nutrition data extraction from campus dining menus
• Containerization: Docker images deployed to AWS Elastic Container Registry

Challenges we ran into

AWS Lambda package size limits: Our initial scraping packages exceeded Lambda's size constraints. We solved this by implementing Lambda Layers to modularize dependencies.

Playwright browser compatibility: The headless browser was too resource-intensive for Lambda's execution environment. We pivoted to creating a custom Docker image and deploying it through AWS Elastic Container Registry, enabling scalable browser automation.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Successfully integrating ElevenLabs for seamless voice ordering and nutrition coaching
• Building a scalable AWS infrastructure that can handle multiple campuses
• Creating an AI agent that actually understands student dietary needs
• Developing a real-time scraping system that keeps nutrition data accurate and up to date

What we learned

This project pushed us to master:

• AWS serverless architecture (Lambda, ECR, Lambda Layers)
• ElevenLabs voice AI integration
• Docker containerization for complex dependencies
• Building production-ready scrapers at scale

What's next for DoorSmashOrPass

We're ready to scale. Our vision is to expand to colleges nationwide and eventually globally, integrating with campus dining systems everywhere. We believe every student deserves convenient access to food and the ability to make informed nutrition choices. We're actively seeking investment to bring DoorSmashOrPass to campuses across the country.
