ShopEcho

Built at UofTHacks 13.

ShopEcho is a modern tool built to help small merchants get their first few customers. We leveraged backboard.io agent memory to support an agent that constantly scans your store, learning about your brand identity. Paste any YouTube video and parse it using TwelveLabs, comparing it directly to your brand manifesto.

If a video is a match, we automatically call ElevenLabs to make a handful of video MVPs to direct your marketting efforts. We also used the agent’s context to write on-brand emails to blast to your customer list.

What I Learned §

• We won 2 prize tracks! Best Use of backboard.io and Best Use of TwelveLabs
• While complexity and a flashy UI are important, a strong idea and elevator pitch are mission-crtical
• I really like to get my hands dirty. Diving in and making something in just a weekend is feeling that you can’t really get anywhere but a hackathon
• (Very oversaid) Being first is better than feeling prepared (I’m still sad they ran out of teddy bears)
