Show IH: InvestIQ — I built an AI property investment analyzer for BTL landlords and deal sourcers.

Hey IH,

Sharing InvestIQ — an AI-powered property investment analyzer
I just launched after 5 days of building.

THE PROBLEM I WAS SOLVING
Every time I analyzed a rental property I spent 30-45 minutes
in Excel doing the same calculations. Yield, cashflow, CoC return,
is the price fair, should I negotiate?

After the 50th spreadsheet I decided to build a tool instead.

WHAT I BUILT
→ Paste any property listing URL (Rightmove, Zillow, Redfin, Zoopla, Domain)
→ AI extracts the data automatically
→ Deterministic algorithm scores the deal 0-100
(all maths in code — no AI hallucinations on numbers)
→ GPT writes a plain-English explanation of the score
→ Complete report in ~10 seconds

TECH STACK
FastAPI + MongoDB + React + Tailwind
OpenAI GPT-5.1 (text only) + deterministic Python scoring engine
PayPal Live payments + Brevo emails + PostHog analytics

BUSINESS MODEL
Freemium: Free (5 analyses/month) → Starter $9.99 → Pro $19 → Expert $49

  • Founding Member Lifetime deal ($49 one-time, 10 spots)

TRACTION
Just launched — actively building the first user base now
through property investor communities on Reddit and Facebook Groups.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
Feedback on the product, the pricing, the positioning.
Is the freemium model right for this niche?
How would you approach getting the first 50 paying customers?

Happy to answer any questions about the build or the business.

    This is a clean wedge because you’re not selling “AI for property” in a vague way. The stronger trust point is that the numbers are deterministic and AI only explains the result. That matters a lot for landlords and deal sourcers because they will not trust a black-box score if real money is involved.

    I’d probably position it less as “AI property analyzer” and more as a faster deal-screening layer for investors: paste a listing, get yield, cashflow, CoC, fairness, negotiation signal, and a plain-English report in seconds. That makes the value feel closer to decision support, not just automation.

    One thing I’d watch early is the InvestIQ name. It is clear, but also quite generic and similar to many finance/analytics tools. If this becomes a serious property intelligence product, Beryxa.com would give it a cleaner SaaS/analytics brand that feels less crowded.
