01 / The Problem

Car discovery is broken.
AI can fix it.

Every existing car marketplace works the same way: you type keywords, hope your vocabulary matches the listing vocabulary, and scroll through results that may or may not be what you had in mind. If you saw a car on the road and want to find it, you're basically guessing.

On the other side, dealers and admins waste significant time entering car specifications manually for every single listing, make, model, year, body type, trim, and more. It's repetitive, error-prone, and slow.

The vision: one AI pipeline that transforms the buyer experience, and another that eliminates the manual overhead of managing inventory.

02 / The AI System

Two AI pipelines. Two different problems solved.

Pipeline 01

Visual Car Search (Buyer-Side AI)

A buyer uploads any car image, from their gallery, a screenshot, or a photo on the street. Gemini AI analyzes the image and Cloudinary's computer vision pipeline matches it against active listings, returning the closest visual and spec matches.

Pipeline 02

Auto Spec Extraction (Admin-Side AI)

Admins upload a car photo and Gemini AI automatically extracts the make, model, year, body type, and other base specifications. What would take 10 minutes of manual entry takes seconds, and with higher accuracy.

How the Visual Search Works

01

User uploads image

Photo from gallery, screenshot, or camera

02

Cloudinary processes

Image is uploaded and optimized via Cloudinary

03

Gemini AI analyzes

03 / The Platform

Every screen built for a specific user need.
