The problem and the proposed outcome

Application: Marketplace sellers — Seller catalogue image matcher
Problem to solve: Product photos are linked to wrong variants
Target buyer: Seller operators, marketplace merchants
Intended use: Employee / expert own workflow; internal business solution
Benefit to test: Test whether visual review becomes more useful or efficient at an acceptable error level.
Potential delivery: Internal application, reviewer dashboard, private assistant or authorized user portal; choose one surface after validating the workflow.

AI method: Computer vision and visual matching
Method code: V
AI contribution: Use a learned visual model to find relevant patterns, measurements or image matches in an explicitly defined setting; provide reviewable evidence.
Output artifact: Visual findings, measurements or ranked image matches with review controls.
Core modules: Permitted calibrated images → visual model → localized findings / matches → qualified review
Simple baseline: Manual inspection, metadata search and established non-AI measurement methods.
Why test AI: Could help with visual patterns or large image archives; capture conditions and expert validation strongly affect usefulness.

Pilot track: Vision pilot
Required data: Owned catalogue images; labelled SKU pairs
Data readiness: Rights-cleared representative images, capture conditions, task-specific labels and qualified ground truth are needed.
First development step: Define the visual task, obtain rights-cleared representative samples, annotate qualified ground truth and benchmark current review.
Initial MVP scope: One defined task, one permitted dataset and one reviewer workflow. Manual upload or authorized export first; no unattended external action. Validate the model before live integration.
Demo data: Synthetic or licensed public samples may illustrate the workflow. Real benefit and model performance need representative authorized held-out data.
Buyer validation question: Ask Seller operators, marketplace merchants: show a recent case where product photos are linked to wrong variants, record the present effort or error, and confirm whether the required data can lawfully be used.

Primary success metric: Variant match accuracy
Model evaluation: Evaluate task-appropriate detection precision/recall, grading agreement, measurement error or search relevance by capture condition.
Metric target: Set after baseline measurement; no improvement or accuracy result asserted.

Specialist review: No special flag; domain review still applies
Human review boundary: Authorized user reviews critical facts, output quality and access before publishing, importing or acting.
Domain review: Confirm data ownership, access, source rights, reviewer authority and correction routes with the operator.
