IACrea
The story
The author spent 9.5 years as a data scientist at IBM while trying projects in spare time. Earlier attempts included a trading bot with no sales, a Twitter tool stopped two days after launch, and an AI photo app sold after three months.
In early 2023, the author entered the unfamiliar real-estate industry and launched IACrea for AI virtual staging. Three years later, clients reportedly spanned 13 countries and the product had received an award. The author also operated Refindie, feedbask and subclip.
IACrea's revenue and client count are undisclosed. The earlier project outcomes are retained as entrepreneurial background.
