From a single phone, Domonique Luchin architected a vertically integrated AI empire spanning real estate wholesaling, demolition, credit repair, and mineral rights—all powered by a unified tech stack. This deep dive covers the infrastructure decisions behind Load Bearing Empire's migration away from vendor lock-in (Twilio, SendGrid, Make.com) toward a self-hosted backbone: Supabase (98 tables, 42 Edge Functions) as the source of truth, VAPI orchestrating 26 AI agents, Asterisk 18.10 running enterprise-grade telephony on Vultr, and a custom JARVIS Brain Router tying it all together. We'll walk through the technical architecture that lets a single engineer manage six revenue-generating businesses in parallel—schema design, stateless agent routing, PBX configuration for multi-tenant voice, and the cost/reliability trade-offs that made self-hosting worth the operational overhead.

For the Twilio-to-Asterisk move, where did self-hosting break even once you included the sole engineer’s maintenance and incident-response time, rather than just vendor bills? A rough usage threshold would be useful, no private financial details needed.
