Thread: App Idea

  1. #1

    App Idea

    So I have this app idea and I need to know if it is possible with today's technology. Anybody up for a chat on this topic?

    What would the app do?
    “I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul

    Yo dog, I heard you like apps, so I made an app that downloads apps so you can use apps in your apps.

    Just try to describe it in general.

    More importantly - does it already exist? Is it already in development?

    The biggest challenge is to use image processing techniques to identify the item, if the user adds some data along with the picture, it makes it a bit easier.

    To get the value, you would need to identify some data points, a big one is sale price for the same or similar item at retail, or via ebay, craigslist, amazon, google shop, etc. Most of these platforms have search APIs you can use to find pricing. Some APIs are not free, but should give you enough for free (in demo/developer mode) to know if it is worth paying more for better functionality.

    Yeah, I would have to hire it done or some type of partnership. Does it sound doable to you though?

    Yes, it's doable. For image APIs, check out Catchoom and CamFind for starts. You might want to use 2 or 3 of these to see if their identifications agree.

    Cool, do you have a recommendation as to the people I should talk to in order to get something like this done?

    Sorry, not offhand. Maybe you could find someone on upwork.

    You should pitch it to the VCs. They are desperate to spend money on something. Take the seed at 5 mil, A round 20 mil. You need a powerful AI, or at least some machine learning.

    A VC is going to want to see a working prototype.

    Upwork does not seem to be the place. So far they all want me to tell them exactly what to do and then they will code it.

    Heads up my friend. I shot you a message.

If you wanted to build this as a web app I do that. We apps can be turned into phone apps using Phonegap. I'd be happy to work with you on this as I have time. Regardless i won't steal your million dollar idea. I'm already working on a few of my own.
