The project
A personal fix
Descriptly started as a personal fix: I was moving, had a pile of things to sell, and no patience to write a description for each one. Built a prototype to solve that, then turned it into a proper web app. A photo upload feeds into a vision model, which returns structured copy.
What I did
Concept, design, build
I came up with the idea, designed the interface, and built the whole thing myself. Most of the work was making the AI output sound like a person wrote it, not a structured data dump that happens to be grammatical.
Outcome
Learning in production
The app isn't running anymore. The point was getting hands-on with things I wanted to understand: vision within AI, structured JSON output, connecting that to a database, and authentication. Learned a lot building it with actual users and real edge cases to solve for.
