01 / CAPTURE
Autoscans parts
Point the camera at a nameplate. It reads the catalogue number off the plate.
Not replacing humans.
Helping.
Surplus Pilot is a part scanner that takes photos of electrical surplus, identifies it, fills out the listing draft, and waits for your approval to post to eBay — cutting each part’s listing time to a quarter.
No card. It opens to a few people at a time.
Photograph a part. Read the draft. Approve it.
02 / IMPORT
Or dump photos you already took
Drop in a camera roll. It groups the photos into parts and works through them.
03 / PRICE
Prices against real sales
Compares the part to completed sales across 67,457 catalogued parts.
04 / DRAFT
Fills out the listing
Title, description, item specifics, weight and shipping — ready to review.
05 / WHITEOUT
Whites out the background
Lifts the part off whatever it was photographed on, onto clean white.
06 / INVENTORY
Keeps your inventory
Every part you scan stays on record, with its photos and what you changed.
07 / REFUSAL
Says when it cannot read a plate
A scratched or sideways plate comes back refused, naming what it could not read.
08 / APPROVAL
Nothing posts without you
No draft reaches eBay until a person has read it and pressed approve.
Animated demonstration, not a screen recording — every part number in it was read from the photograph beside it.
Your next bin of surplus is a good place to start.
It is being built alongside one reseller on his own inventory, and opens to a few people at a time.
