BiblioScan
Scan a bookshelf, see which used books are worth reselling

Hey,
I've been selling used books on Amazon FBA for 8 years, doing around $500K/year in revenue. So this product comes straight from my own daily pain.
Every scouting tool on the market works the same way: scan one barcode at a time. When you walk into a thrift store, a flea market or a used bookshop with thousands of books in front of you, it's brutally slow. You spend hours bent over shelves, scanning one ISBN after another, and you still miss most of the inventory because you simply don't have time to check everything.
I kept thinking: why can't I just take a photo of an entire shelf and get the verdict instantly?
That's how BiblioScan started. A single photo easily captures 100+ books, and 40 seconds later you have resale values, Amazon sales history and buyback prices for every single one of them. You can shoot dozens of photos in a row, which means you can scout a whole used bookshop or a charity shop in 30 minutes max, and walk out with only the books that will actually make you money.
It's the tool I wish I'd had on day one of my reselling journey.
Happy to answer any questions about the app, the book reselling business, or how the AI handles edge cases. Feedback very welcome 🙏
