Partial The photo-upload app and scan history are straightforward, and vision models can suggest identification and period, but credible value estimates depend on a proprietary database of sold-price and auction data that a solo builder won't have.
What it would actually take: The app would use a vision-language model for identification, plus an image-similarity search over a catalog and a pricing engine. The hard part is licensing or building a large, accurate dataset of comparable sales, which requires market data partnerships or years of collection.
