I would like to suggest adding a “Search by Image” / “Upload Product Image” option to the AutoDS Marketplace and Product Research system.
Currently, users mainly search for products using keywords or product descriptions. However, many sellers discover products through social media, competitor stores, advertisements, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Amazon, or other websites and may only have a photo or screenshot of the product.
With this feature, a user could upload a product image or screenshot, and AutoDS would automatically analyze the image using AI/computer vision and search its available suppliers and product database for the same product or visually similar products.
The results could display all important information associated with the identified product, including:
Exact or similar matching products
Product title and description
Product images and available variants
Supplier name and supplier source
Supplier/product link
Product cost
Shipping cost
Estimated delivery time
Ships-from location
Available stock or inventory status
Available colors, sizes, models, or other variants
Recommended selling price
Estimated profit and profit margin
Supported selling channels
Product ratings/reviews, where available
Sales or trend information, if available
Multiple supplier options for the same product
An AI match/confidence score showing how closely the result matches the uploaded image
For example, if a user sees a trending beauty product, phone accessory, home item, clothing product, or another item on social media, they could simply take a screenshot and upload it to AutoDS. Instead of trying different keywords and manually searching through hundreds of products, AutoDS could immediately show relevant matches and suppliers.
It would also be helpful to include options such as “Exact Match,” “Similar Products,” “Find Cheaper Supplier,” and “Find Faster Shipping.”
This feature could significantly improve the product-research workflow, save sellers time, make sourcing easier, and help AutoDS users identify products even when they do not know the exact product name or keywords.
In the future, this could potentially be expanded into a broader AI Visual Product Research Assistant, where AutoDS analyzes an uploaded product image and recommends related products, alternative suppliers, pricing opportunities, and potentially profitable products.
I believe this would be a valuable modernization of the AutoDS Marketplace and could make product discovery much faster and more intuitive for e-commerce sellers.
