Thanks! That's a really cool use case. We have another AI company using Optic for something similar and I hope they share their on their blog work soon.
If you can put together an example of the kind of code you want Optic to write for each module I'm happy to help you guys create Optic skills around it. There's also information in our docs on how to do this yourself. If you generated the routes with Optic you'd also be able to consume them easily and keep all your code synced as you update the input your models require.
How often do you find your team writing these microservices / tests?
Other than that, one vertical usecase that would be super appealing would be the ability to automatically generate (and maintain) api servers ontop of AI modules. As in if we had a tensorflow model, can we automatically create an endpoint to serve live traffic? I guess more generally, if we can define the JSON input to a function (any python function doesnt have to be AI model), Optic can write all the boiler plate microservice for us!
