Questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You copy and paste the prompts on this page into ChatGPT or Claude, and the AI does the building. When it asks you something, you answer in your own words.
What does it cost?
The quick version, the app pack and the step-by-step instructions are for members: you pay the membership price, not a price per app (see the plans). Building the full app uses your own ChatGPT or Claude subscription. Putting it online is often cheap or no cost at the start, and your AI tells you before anything costs money.
How long does it take?
The quick version: about two minutes. The real app: an afternoon for a first version you can use, longer if you want every feature.
Can I change it to fit my business?
Yes. Tell your AI what to change in plain words, like “add a column for the price” or “use our logo and colours”. Or have Nexibeo build and customise it for you.
More detailsHow the AI works, safeguards and what to build first
For parents and school district bookstore managers, turn smartphone photos of used textbooks into graded, matched listings with local demand signals. Address the recurring problem: used textbooks sit in homes and bookstores while other families need the exact edition for the coming semester. The value hypothesis is a faster, more reliable swap with less manual searching; the pilot must establish whether that benefit is real.
Upload a photo, extract book details, grade condition, match to curriculum, list for relevant courses, receive an offer, and complete the sale with confirmation. Start with smartphone photos of used textbooks and finish with matched, graded listings and completed transactions.
How the AI works
Use vision models to read ISBNs and grade physical condition, and language models to interpret curriculum lists and match requests. Keep edition and course data in structured fields. Validate matches through deterministic checks. A human moderator reviews disputed grades before any refund or penalty is applied.
Safeguards
Limit listings to verified school districts, require photo confirmation on delivery, cap dispute refunds, and never share personal addresses without both parties consenting.
What to build first
One school district, one semester, photo upload and listing modules only, with manual matching by a coordinator.
What it can connect to
School district curriculum databases, payment gateways and shipping label APIs, starting with a simple CSV import of course lists.
The screens in detail
Use a simple upload screen with a camera prompt, a gallery grouped by school and course, and a match feed showing nearby buyers. Let users filter by edition and condition. Display pending, matched and completed states. Provide a chat window for pickup coordination. In this product, the first view is photo upload, followed by listing gallery and match feed.
