Weeks of typing before
a single item went live.

- 01
Ingestion
32,000 past items — titles, descriptions, estimates and realized prices — ingested into a hosted backend as the model’s reference set.
- 02
The engine
Photographs in, complete listing rows out. Repeat items pull their own history; new items get identified and described from the image.
- 03
Review triage
Confidence-scored output. Only uncertain items are flagged for a human; everything else passes straight through.
- 04
The handoff
The filled template uploads straight to LiveAuctioneers, and existing automation cross-posts to BidSpirit and the direct bidding site.
