How to grow from a service marketplace into AI platform ??

Meero has grown into a successful global platform that connects professional photographers and videographers with clients looking for high quality visual content. The platform was founded in 2016 and has quickly grown to become the largest on-demand photography service provider in the world, with over 100,000 photographers and videographers in over 100 countries. Part of the success story is the investment into own AI driven image improvement capabilities and services.

Today, Meero's ambitions go beyond being a service marketplace. The company's goal is to become an AI-powered platform that revolutionizes the visual content industry.

So, how does a service marketplace like Meero transition into an AI platform? In our conversation with CEO Gaétan Rougevin-Baville he revealed some key steps:

1. Building a Massive Database of images as the source for the AI training
2. Developing AI-Powered Features based on the training database
3. Integrating into your own platform but also build services to allow other platforms and networks to leverage the capabilities
4. Strong commitment and investment in Research and Development

Meero's long-term goal is to use AI to automate the entire visual content creation process, from shooting and editing to delivery and distribution. This would enable the platform to offer a more streamlined and efficient service, and ultimately revolutionize the way visual content is created and consumed.

Meero's transition from a service marketplace to an AI platform is a first major pivot to the company's ambition and vision. By leveraging its massive database, developing AI-powered features, integrating with other platforms, and investing in research and development, Meero is positioning itself as a leader in the visual content industry.?
