AI Analysis

●●SolidNiche GemSolve My Problem

Photo-based quotes beat manual surveys using Gemini vision and cube-sheet volumes.

Strengths
  • Industry cube-sheet integration means volumes match how removal firms actually price.
  • No app install required, runs in iOS Safari and Android Chrome for customer self-service.
  • Configurable packing-efficiency factor accounts for how each team actually loads vans.
Weaknesses
  • UK-only focus limits market, and Gemini API costs scale with every quote.
  • Vision models still struggle with obscured items and unusual furniture.

Post Description

The link is just a demo we built. Nearly all house/office moving businesses rely on the customer to fill out lengthy forms and then wait for a human to get back to them with a quote.

My colleague experienced this first-hand recently, hence why we build this tool. Instead of manually filling out a form, you just photo the rooms in your house. It identifies the objects, then uses industry standard "cube-sheets" (inventory lists), which have volume & weights of common items, to calculate the vehicle size required and generate the quote.

This reduces hours / days of waiting for a quote to a 5 minute walk around your house with your phone and completely removes the need to manually enter items.

I am looking for feedback from anyone who has moved house/office recently and whether this would have been a benefit and any other feature ideas?

This is just a demo, but we already have additional potential features: specify fragile items, specify disassembly.

Movement-based captcha – temporal reasoning to foil AI vision

Instead of warping text or asking image questions, this prototype makes the solution letters share a geometric motion signature while decoys move differently — you must watch temporal patterns to solve it. The GIFs and client-side demo make the idea immediately tangible, but it's clearly a proof‑of‑concept: the solution is exposed in memory (no server-side validation) and motion-based challenges create accessibility concerns.
