Major features & technology used:
Setter consolidates contractors’, trade personnel, and service providers’ information and their corresponding reviews to allow homeowners to find the best suited providers for the job. Setter collects these companies’ public reviews and uses NLP algorithms to extract key information about each review. These properties scoring algorithms allow homeowners to choose service providers according to their preference.
Setter also uses image recognition/classification, audio extraction, and other proprietary machine learning techniques to authenticate and validate the proofs provided by the homeowners. Setter aims to achieve 95% accuracy, allowing for instant claim verification.
Lastly, to maintain a foolproof record of all care and actions completed by the homeowners and/or contractors. Setter uses Blockchain as a general ledger to recordkeeping purposes. Authorized partners could inquire or extract service records by verifying with the blockchain.
