Every moving company owner knows the frustration: you get a lead list, start calling, and half the homes are empty. No furniture. No move. Wasted time.

That's why we built AI furniture detection into every Book The Move plan.

The Problem With Traditional Lead Lists

Services like USA Home Listings scrape real estate websites and hand you a spreadsheet of everyone who listed their home. Sounds great until you realize:

• Investors flip empty properties — no move needed

• New construction listings have no furniture — nobody living there

• Some sellers move out before listing — already gone

Industry estimates suggest 20-40% of listed homes are vacant or empty. That's a lot of dead leads you're paying for.

How Our AI Furniture Scanner Works

We use Google's Gemini AI to analyze every listing photo before a lead hits your dashboard.

Step 1: Photo Collection When a home lists on Redfin, Zillow, or MLS, we pull all available listing photos — living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, garages.

Step 2: AI Analysis Gemini scans each photo looking for furniture indicators:

• Couches, beds, tables, chairs

• Personal items (photos, decorations, clothes)

• Kitchen items (appliances on counters, items in cabinets)

• Garage contents (boxes, tools, stored items)

Step 3: Furnished Score Each listing gets a furnished confidence score. Only homes that pass our threshold make it to your lead list.

Step 4: Delivery You receive a daily feed of verified furnished homes — people who actually have stuff to move.

What Gemini Catches That Humans Miss

The AI is analyzing dozens of photos per listing in seconds. It catches things like:

• Staged vs. lived-in homes — Staged homes often have minimal, generic furniture. Lived-in homes have clutter, personal items, full closets.

• Partial vacancy — Some rooms furnished, others empty. Might indicate a move in progress.

• Garage contents — A packed garage often means a bigger move. Empty garage might mean they've already moved items out.

Why This Matters For Your Bottom Line

Let's do the math:

Without furniture filtering:

• 100 leads per month

• 30% are vacant/empty

• 70 actual prospects

• You paid for 100, got value from 70

With Book The Move:

• 70 leads per month (only furnished homes)

• 95%+ are legitimate prospects

• You paid for 70, got value from 70

Same number of real opportunities. Less wasted time. Lower cost per qualified lead.
