I'm considering building an app where users can post things they are looking for and things they are offering / selling to the world.
The app would then automatically match the people that need something (e.g. sublease in SF from dates X -> Y), with matching providers (e.g. I have a sublease in SF from X -> Y)
## Some potential use cases
Searcher
- Find subleases faster
- Find someone that can teach you something
- Find services and products you can use for your situation
- Look for jobs that fit your CV
Provider
- Sell your services to the people that need your solution the most
- Sell objects like FB Marketplace but automatically be matched to the best fitting buyer
- Hire faster
## User Flow:
1. User is looking for a sublease
2. User launches the app and tell the app that “I am looking for a sublease in SF from these dates. Looking for a place with no cats”
3. Once submitted, the app analyzes the query and uses AI to search through the list of posts on the platform - this happens every hour until a match is found. The result is the perfect sublease that matches the user’s needs
4. Two parties are connected via a chat interface
The use cases are very broad and assumes the network has been fully fired up.
## Questions for HN:
1. What would you post on this platform?
2. What would you offer as a service?
The challenge here is that the app’s usecase feels very braod. I took the example of subleasing but I could imagine sales and even founders coming on here to both offer and seek resources.
