Find and highlight specific objects in photos with AI

You describe what to look for in plain English and the system draws a box around it in the photo.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Manually reviewing photos to spot a specific detail, like a parked car in the wrong spot or a person in a restricted area, is slow and easy to get wrong when you're looking through many images. You need a faster way to flag exactly what matters in a picture.

Who it fits

Teams that review images for compliance, safety, or quality checks and want to flag specific objects without manual review.

How it works

  1. You provide an image and describe in plain English what to find in it
  2. The image is sent to Google Gemini, which identifies the location of the requested subject
  3. The coordinates are scaled to match the image's exact dimensions
  4. A box is drawn on the image around each match so you can see the result
What you get

Objects flagged and boxed in your photos

You get a photo with the object you describe automatically located and highlighted for you.

What you get

The original photo with a box drawn around whatever you asked the system to find.

What you need

A Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
