My favourite Presti (YC S24) use case? Without a second of doubt Outdoor Furniture – Furniture Today agrees (Link in comments).
“We pretty much rented out most luxury villas on the West Coast over the last couple of years."
That’s what a prospect in the outdoor furniture space recently told me.
Since they’re doing all their lifestyle imagery with photography, finding new locations can really become a bottleneck – one of the reasons they’ve been exploring AI instead.
I did a quick search online to see how much renting a beach side villa in California costs for a day, and at the high end it can easily be a couple thousand $$$$.
Now imagine this:
- You pay $1000 to rent a beach side villa for a day
- You pay $6000 for a team of creatives (photographer, set designer, etc.)
- You spend days bringing all your furniture to the location (or paid someone to do it)...
Just to find out that the weather forecast for that day was wrong and it’s cloudy all day.
All your money and time just went to waste.
Is this a risk worth taking?
Some say it’s a risk inherent to outdoor, but with Presti (YC S24)'s AI you don’t have to worry about that, since you can just dictate what kind of weather you want, and, unlike 3D rendering, AI is *seriously* good at rendering outdoor details like trees, leaves, etc. (the best part: you can try it for free).
Furniture Today featured us in an article about the difficulties outdoor furniture struggle with specifically, and why AI is one of the obvious solutions many marketing teams are looking at.
