The vision of Placert
Buying or selling a house can be an emotional process and it has always been difficult to capture the “soft side” of a house. A real estate broker adds what we call “hard data” to a house listing, things like: the number of rooms, square meters, the state of maintenance, location of the garden and, of course, the price.
Placert adds “soft data” to a house listing by asking the owner and his social network to endorse or add features, share photos and videos, pinpoint interesting spots on an interactive map and share nice memories/anecdotes. This way, potential buyers can see the “soft side” of the house, data delivered by actual humans. Personal endorsements that turn a house into a home.
The work of BusyMachines
The main challenge of building the cross-platform mobile apps consisted in concentrating most of the video processing & related operations on the mobile / client side.
-
Avoiding server side processing had the benefits of a much better & faster user experience and lower cloud operational costs.
BusyMachines is responsible for the complete development & release of the mobile apps that integrate with the cloud platform.
