This Is So You! Event Newsletter
We'll walk through building a newsletter that scrapes local events, creates text embeddings, uses vector similarity search, and delivers personalized recommendations in real time.
This is an ongoing team capstone project between HFF and the University of Toronto that explores how personalized recommendation systems can be built into real products. The project focuses on designing and developing a digital newsletter that presents curated local events based on individual users’ preferences. By combining data scraping, natural language embeddings, and personalized filtering, This Is So You! automatically selects and delivers relevant events in a simple, engaging newsletter format. The goal is to make event discovery effortless while demonstrating how recommendation systems can be implemented end-to-end within a production-ready application.
