Real-Time Market Aggregator
The Challenge
A vintage furniture reseller was spending 6+ hours daily manually refreshing Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and Nextdoor to find underpriced inventory. In a competitive market, speed is everything—by the time they saw a listing, it was often already sold.
The Solution
We developed a custom scraping and aggregation engine that monitors local marketplaces in real-time.
- Unified Dashboard: A single view of all new listings across multiple platforms.
- AI Filtering: Computer Vision models analyze listing photos to identify specific furniture styles (e.g., "Mid-Century Modern") and condition.
- Instant Alerts: SMS notifications sent within 30 seconds of a high-value item being posted.
