Managed marketplace for high quality photography
But with millions of listings across hundreds of marketplaces, the burden on listers and platforms is now becoming extremely complex.
Meero is solving this through building a global managed marketplace of trained photographers, combined with machine learning algorithms, that can turn an average-looking picture into a beautiful one — eventually leading to greater conversions. With tens of thousands of photographers on their platform and clients such as Accor, Houzz, and Sotheby’s, the company is poised to disrupt the photography market across multiple geographies and verticals.
This mobile first model has given rise to “managed marketplaces”.
