yeah I build these scripts for a living, it's always on top of elasticsearch.

people on this forum hit me up constantly asking for the price for me to do a script for them...I always just tell them, it's a lot more than you want to pay. I would probably do it for someone, for $15k. But not any less.

Getting the search algorithms to work nice is indeed the hardest part. That, and cacheing.
