App for Advanced search on Facebook Marketplace – Need Your Feedback

[paul_white]

Hi everyone,

I’m building an app for advanced search and management of car listings on Facebook Marketplace. It is different from other similar projects by having all listings in my database. You don't need to setup search by params or intervals - just search through the catalog like you normally do, but with improvements like advanced search.

The app is at an early stage and only covers California. It’s free to use, and no registration is needed.

Here is what it already can do:

* Tracks all vehicle listings, which appear on the webpage 15–120 minutes after becoming available on FB (more frequently during working hours).
* Filters out non-car and irrelevant listings (boats, bikes, auto detailing, parts, etc.).
* Allows filtering by additional fields (private/dealership, mileage).
* Your FB account is not used

These are my ideas for what could be useful (let me know if that is true):

* Evaluation of listings (and finding listings priced below market value).
* Showing new listings as soon as possible.
* Notifications about new listings matching search criteria.
* Listing management (bookmark, don’t show, export to file or API).
* Better filtering (by mileage, transmission, keywords; improved location selection).
* Better separation of private sellers and dealerships.

I’d appreciate it if you could try it out, leave a review, and let me know how I can make this app useful to you. Thanks for your time.

The app lives here: cleanttl.com

Bumping my topic with a bunch of updates.

The app does a lot of listing processing to fix titles, determine car condition, identify recent repairs, and detect signs of high motivation to sell. I aim to help buyers find undervalued cars based on their parameters.

Having all listings in my database (as opposed to crawling on demand) enables a lot of useful features: finding underpriced cars, tracking price drops, exclude offers from dealerships, description analysis of different kinds, etc. I really need feedback from dealers, flippers, and other industry leaders to choose the right direction for my project.

Please give it a try: cleanttl.com

Still free and still California only.

Thank you.
