Overview
What the project is designed to do
A fictional Canadian vehicle marketplace lab with a twelve-car catalogue, filters, comparisons, finance education, and explainable Smart Match that remains useful without an AI provider.
Visitors can search, filter, compare, save, and inspect durable vehicle pages, then see why catalogue records fit their priorities.
An optional same-origin image flow analyzes visible attributes and returns catalogue similarities without storing the image.
Problem
What needed to change
Vehicle marketplaces can hide why recommendations fit, while image-recognition demos can imply unsupported capability or retention.
Solution
How the release responds
Combine a fictional catalogue with explainable matching, educational tools, clear boundaries, and a deterministic non-AI path.
