AI virtual staging service for real estate listings
A service where customers send photos of empty rooms and receive back the same room with AI-generated furniture, priced per photo or per listing. Built as a simple web app that calls an image-generation model via API, paying per picture instead of a subscription.

Problem: Empty rooms photograph terribly and buyers scroll past them; physical staging costs thousands of dollars and takes a week, while virtual staging companies charge $24-$100+ per photo. AI can produce the same image for cents.
For: Solo real estate agents with vacant listings, property managers, home builders with spec homes, flippers, and real estate photographers (photographers being the smartest target because one photographer serves ~50 agents and already has their trust and invoicing relationship).
