This looks pretty awesome. So is this just using Elastic Mapreduce on the backend? Can you use your existing AWS credentials for this with a Hawk surcharge on top? This looks like lots of fun to use. Can't wait.

We actually built on EC2, not Elastic MapReduce. Invoices come from Mortar only -- that way when we can achieve bulk AWS savings, we can keep our cost lower.

I'm glad it looks awesome, thanks!
