Software developer of 30+ years here. The algorithm is actually quite straightforward with very few data points compared to many with 120 different data points that I've worked on for things like travel booking sites. A working prototype could be coded in a weekend, but realistically a customer facing suitable replacement could easily be done in 200 hours. I've worked on apps with over 1 million daily users. A few thousand a day isn't much of a big deal.
