Hey folks,

We are a team of phDs and ex HFT engineers who love to apply NLP/ML into daily life.

One thing I do a lot before buying anything expensive is reading a ton of reviews, forums, blogs, reddit and checking social media for actual images from buyers. This often takes a lot of time and we think NLP can help categorize and summarize crowd's insights of the products better.

This idea is inspired by the dude who made laptophits.com (for some reason it is now defunct so I couldn't actually use it couple weeks ago when looking for a new laptop :-/).

We are open for criticism & ideas. Please let us know if our landing page makes any sense and you'd like to try. Thanks!
