Real Estate Photography App
Listing Pix is an on-demand marketplace suite containing three applications—a customer app, a photographer app, and a camera app—that we developed for Real Estate Exposures, a real estate photography and marketing company based in the USA. These apps help customers book real estate photographers, enable photographers to list their services, and provide users with advanced tools to capture and edit real estate photos.
Ultimately, these applications help Real Estate Exposures successfully expand their well-established business on an online platform and grow beyond physical limitations.
Client’s Requirement
Our client provides photography and videography services to realtors who want to sell more properties faster and at a high price. They also cater to businesses like restaurants, hotels, spas and salons, schools and campuses to market their facilities with professional property photography services.
However, they were facing a few business challenges:
- Time-consuming photo shoots
- Time-consuming editing processes
- Final photo delivery took several days
- High operational costs
- Limited outreach to realtors
These challenges prompted creating an on-demand marketplace with advanced technology tools, such as AI-driven image processing and editing for quick photo delivery and detailed listings to hire photographers.
Solutions We Developed
After an in-depth study of the regular real estate photography process, our client’s operational and management processes, challenges, and goals, we designed and developed the Listing Pix applications.
For mobile frontend development, our developers used
- Native Android with Kotlin – A powerful and modern combination for building high-performance mobile applications.
- Native iOS with SwiftUI – A seamless and dynamic toolkit for creating high-quality mobile applications.
For backend development, we used
- PHP with Laravel – A robust and elegant framework for building scalable and efficient web applications.
We used MySQL for data reliability. In addition, we utilized third-party AI tools such as AutoEnhance and Virtual Staging to enhance images in HDR.
