Yes, exactly where I'm headed next! Will be pretty easy to grade photographers against our standards and help them get to the point where AI correction is no longer needed (until they leave and we have to start all over with a new photographer :))


And then I'm also working on something called instance segmentation, I can identify where a vehicle is at in the frame to identify and fix photos that were either taken too close or too far away.


Too far away = crop closer

Too close = use generative AI outpainting *if the conditions are right


You can also use it to detect reconditioning and detail issues like dirty seats, door dings, etc. And identify valuable hot ticket features that might have gotten missed when booking the vehicle out - ventilated seat buttons, premium Bose speakers, etc.


Consistent, quality merchandising at scale is difficult to achieve. AI and computer vision is helping us get there. Having quality photos is perhaps the single most impactful thing a dealership can focus on.


Vehicle photos have a trickle down effect that impacts the effectiveness of nearly all digital advertising campaigns - third party marketplaces, Google VLA's, Facebook AIA's, etc.
