Three steps. No apps to install.

1

Customer scans a QR code

A small counter card sits next to the register. The customer scans it and types what they're looking for — in their own words. "A Tele with P90s under $800" or "any Martin D-28 from the 90s."

2

AI matches new arrivals

When a trade-in or consignment comes through the door, our system checks it against every want request. Not keyword matching — real understanding. It knows a "Butterscotch Blonde Telecaster" matches someone looking for a "natural finish Tele."

3

The shop texts the customer

"Hey — got one for ya!" The customer gets a text from the shop with the details. They reply, you hold it, they pick it up. Sale closed before it ever hits Reverb.

It understands what you mean, not just what you typed.

Customers describe gear in their own language. Our AI knows guitar culture well enough to connect the dots.

Example 1 — Color synonyms
"Looking for a Fender Tele in natural or butterscotch, under $700"
Matches this new arrival:
Fender Player Telecaster — Butterscotch Blonde — $649
The listing says "Butterscotch Blonde" — a specific Fender color name. The want says "natural or butterscotch." Keyword search would miss "Blonde" entirely. Our AI knows they're the same family.
Example 2 — Nickname recognition
"Any LP with humbuckers, prefer a '59 neck profile"
Matches this new arrival:
2020 Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s — Heritage Cherry Sunburst — $1,899
"LP" → Les Paul. The '50s Standard ships with a vintage '59 rounded neck profile and humbuckers. A text search for "LP" or "'59 neck" returns nothing from this listing. Our AI connects the dots.
Example 3 — Vague but valid
"Something versatile for blues and jazz, semi-hollow maybe, nothing too pricey"
Matches this new arrival:
Epiphone ES-335 Figured — Blueberry Burst — $449
No brand, no model, no price range. Just vibes. Our AI knows the ES-335 is the quintessential semi-hollow for blues and jazz, and that Epiphone's price point fits "nothing too pricey." A keyword search has literally nothing to work with here.

This is what it actually looks like.

No app to download. No account to create. Just a text from a shop they already know.

Sell trade-ins before they hit Reverb.

First-mover advantage on every trade-in

A matched customer gets a text within minutes of intake. The guitar sells before you even photograph it for the website.

🤝

Strengthens your local relationships

Customers feel taken care of. "My shop is looking out for me." That's the kind of loyalty Reverb can't replicate.

🧠

Smarter than a spreadsheet

You don't need to remember that Mike wants a Tele and Sarah wants a Les Paul. The system remembers — and matches things a Ctrl+F never would.

Zero setup, zero friction

We give you a counter card with a QR code. That's it. No POS integration, no app to learn, no workflow changes.

We're launching with a handful of Colorado shops.

Founding shops get a free pilot with hands-on setup. If it works, you keep it at a founding rate. If it doesn't, no hard feelings.
