Description

AI-based direct transaction market platform system and sales method

[0001] The present invention relates to a direct transaction market platform system and business method between consumers and producers used on the Internet, and more specifically, to an AI-based direct transaction market platform system and business method that provides a function that enables consumers and producers to engage in actual direct transactions, and further provides a function that enables direct transactions to be activated.

[0002] Recently, cutting-edge information and communication technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), 5G, smartphones, wearables, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and fintech have developed, and computing power has also increased tremendously. In addition, various devices are interconnected through wired and wireless networks, and big data generated / collected from various devices is not only stored in the cloud, but also hyper-connected, ultra-high-speed, ultra-large-capacity, and ultra-real-time services are possible. As a result, the O2O platform business model, which is a fusion of the virtual world and the real world (online to offline: O2O, hereinafter referred to as O2O)) on the Internet, is being actively utilized.

[0003] The present invention is related to this, and the prior art that serves as the background of the present invention includes Korean Patent No. 10-1539625 (registered on July 21, 2015) Mobile Market Platform Providing Server and System, Korean Patent No. 10-2138843 (registered on July 22, 2020) AI-based Agricultural, Livestock, and Fishery Products Direct Transaction Distribution Service System and Method, and Korean Patent No. 10-2428932 (registered on July 29, 2022) Content-based Agricultural, Livestock, and Fishery Products Direct Transaction Platform Service Providing Method and System.

[0004] The above conventional technology provides a system and method for connecting direct transactions between consumers and producers.

[0005] However, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, the government's social distancing policy led to lockdowns and the suspension of group meals, blocking the distribution of agricultural and fishery products. As a result, crops were simply plowed over in the fields, and fish in fish farms also died in the fields.

[0006] The problem is that when sales channels were blocked, producers had no choice but to discard their products, but consumers had no way to purchase them, and the consumer prices in the market were not that cheap.

[0007] On the other hand, there is also the problem that consumers who really need masks were willing to pay a high price to get them, but due to the already insufficient supply and the skyrocketing price of masks, some people were hoarding them, leaving consumers who really needed masks unable to purchase them.

[0008] From another perspective, producers of agricultural, livestock, and fishery products, solopreneurs, and newly established SMEs, who are at a disadvantage when it comes to product distribution, often face unreasonable treatment in terms of delivery prices, sales commissions, and advertising costs, even if they manage to launch their products with distributors. This leads to constant disputes. To overcome this, producers of agricultural, livestock, and fishery products attempt to develop sales channels by creating online websites or using YouTube and blogs. However, limitations in advertising and promotion make these platforms difficult to maintain on an ongoing basis.

[0009] In light of these facts, the problem with conventional technology is that it clearly does not provide a system or method that allows consumers and producers to transact directly.

[0047] In the present invention, that is, the AI-based direct transaction market platform system, the application installed on the platform server will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0048] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating the components of an application installed on the platform server of the present invention. The platform server of the present invention is characterized by being installed with an application as shown.

[0049] The application is composed of a direct transaction market section (410), a festival market section (411), a flea market section (412), a package market section (413), a direct purchase agency market section (414), a reservation sales market section (415), a market opening section (420), a product search section (430), a sales price adjustment section (440), a sales status management section (450), a transaction ledger management section (460), a product payment section (470), and a product delivery section (480).

[0050] An application having such components can specifically implement the technical idea of ​​the present invention, and not only provides a function that enables consumers and producers to engage in actual direct transactions, but also provides a function that further promotes direct transactions.

[0051] The direct transaction marketplace (410) is a marketplace where producers place markets opened through the market opening section on producer terminals, and is a marketplace displayed on the UI of consumer terminals connected to the application, allowing consumers to search for products and pay for products they have decided to purchase, thereby enabling direct transactions between consumers and producers.

[0052] The market opening section (420) is intended to enable producers to open a market on a producer terminal, have pricing authority, set a selling price, and then directly operate the market.

[0053] The product search section (430) is intended to enable consumers to easily and quickly search for products by price range, quality level, production region and producer according to intended use on a consumer terminal, view the products at a glance and purchase the products.

[0054] The festival market department (411) is for opening a festival market and selling products at the relevant producer terminal at a local specialty product festival or small and medium-sized enterprise excellent product exhibition held by local governments or the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.

[0055] The purpose of the flea market section (412) is to enable producers to open a market in the flea market from the relevant producer terminal and quickly sell products that exceed the appropriate inventory level or that are left over for sale.

[0056] The package market section (413) is for producers who produce different products within a certain region to sell them as a package, and after opening a package market, the relevant producer representative terminal opens a market in the package market and sells the products.

[0057] The direct purchase agency marketplace (414) is intended to enable consumers within a certain region to purchase small quantities of products or large quantities of products directly by opening a direct purchase agency marketplace and then opening a market in the direct purchase agency marketplace using the relevant direct purchase agency terminal to conduct direct purchases.

[0058] The reservation sales market section (415) is for opening a reservation sales market and allowing the producer to open a market in the reservation sales market and make reservation sales of products for products that the producer plans to produce or is producing or products that are out of stock during purchase payment.

[0059] The sales price adjustment unit (440) is intended to quickly detect abnormal sales prices among the sales prices set by the producer at the producer terminal and adjust the sales prices.

[0060] The sales status management department (450) provides real-time sales status to producer terminals to enable producers to easily and quickly manage settlement and inventory.

[0061] The transaction ledger management unit (460) is intended to eliminate the inconvenience of multiple producers having to manage their transaction ledgers separately, by providing transaction history data in a spreadsheet of the UI, and allowing the transaction ledgers to be managed directly from the producer terminal.

[0062] The product payment section (470) is designed to allow a payment application provided by a payment company server to create a payment icon on the consumer terminal UI, either alone or in conjunction with a shopping cart, so that the consumer can place the product he or she has decided to purchase on the consumer terminal in the shopping cart and pay for it.

[0063] The product delivery department (480) transmits the delivery information of products for which a transaction has been concluded to the courier company server to deliver the products and allows consumers to check the delivery status on their consumer terminals.

[0064] In another aspect, the present invention, i.e., a sales method using an AI-based direct transaction market platform system, will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 2.

[0065] In one embodiment, according to the steps for opening a direct transaction marketplace to enable direct transactions between consumers and producers, a market created by a producer through the market opening step on a producer terminal is placed on a direct transaction marketplace on a platform server, and when a consumer terminal accesses the application, the direct transaction marketplace is displayed on the UI, so that the consumer can search for products, add products to the shopping cart, and click the payment icon to make a payment, thereby enabling direct transactions between the consumer terminal and the producer terminal.

[0066] By opening a market in a direct transaction marketplace, producers can secure customers and monitor consumer reactions to their products in real time.

[0067] In one embodiment, according to the market opening stage in which the producer opens and directly operates a market, the producer accesses the application on the producer terminal, clicks the market opening tab displayed on the UI, and enters necessary information such as product information (product name, product photo, price by product grade, quantity by product grade, production photo, etc.), producer information (business name, producer name, area code, phone number, mobile phone number, address, transaction bank, depositor, account number, etc.) and production site information (farm ledger, livestock permit certificate, ship ledger, processed food permit, product manufacturing permit, etc.) and transmits them to the platform server. After the platform server confirms the received information, it creates a market in the application, transmits the received product information, etc. to the cloud for storage, and transmits a market opening execution signal to the producer terminal to open the market.

[0068] In another embodiment, in a method of transmitting product information, etc. from a producer terminal to a platform server and registering it, a method of registering product information, etc. by taking a picture with a camera built into an application of the platform server, a method of registering by uploading existing photos, videos, files, etc., or a method of registering by inputting with a keyboard can be used, and registered product information, etc. can be modified / changed / deleted.

[0069] The biggest advantage of this is that producers have the right to decide the prices of the products they sell by opening and directly operating a market, and can sell agricultural products that are not of the same grade as those that were not available in the market. They can also receive real-time feedback from consumers regarding product reviews and other aspects.

[0070] In one embodiment, according to the product search step that allows consumers to find products according to their purpose and see them at a glance, when a consumer terminal connected to an application searches for the product name they are looking for in the direct transaction marketplace created in the UI and transmits it to the platform server, AI receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server and extracts a market list by price range, quality grade, production region, and producer for the searched products according to the learned model and transmits the extracted market list to the platform server, and the platform server transmits the products in the market on the list to the consumer terminal and displays the products in the market on the UI.

[0071] In another embodiment, when searching for a product on a consumer terminal, the user selects a product name, then selects an icon from among price range, quality grade, production region, and producer, and specifies the number of products to display. The UI displays the specified number of products for the selected items. For the remaining items, clicking or scrolling through the corresponding items sequentially displays the specified number of products on the UI.

[0072] The order in which products are displayed on the UI from the platform server can be determined based on the results of AI analysis of big data transmitted from the cloud, or it can be determined based on the results of analysis of product purchase history, such as preferred products or consumption tendencies (i.e., high price range, good quality, organic, etc.) collected from consumer terminals.

[0073] Another embodiment allows users to search for products by clicking on icons in the UI. For example, if they want to purchase apples, clicking on the agricultural product icon in the UI will create a sub-organized fruit and vegetable icon. Clicking on the fruit and vegetable icon will create a sub-organized apple icon. Clicking on the apple icon will create a sub-organized regional icon. Clicking on the regional icon will then display apples from the sub-organized producer market in the UI. The icon configuration and usage can be added, modified, or deleted depending on the user's convenience.

[0074] Consumers can easily and quickly find products by price range, quality level, production region, and producer according to their intended use, and can purchase the best value product that suits their purpose.

[0075] In one embodiment, according to the festival market opening stage to allow producers to open a market at the festival market and sell products, AI receives a festival name and a list of markets from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts a confirmed festival name and a list of related markets according to a learned model, and transmits the extracted festival name and the list of related markets to the platform server. After the platform server opens a festival market, it sends a message to the producer terminal of the market on the list asking whether to participate in the festival market. When the producer terminal selects and transmits participation in the festival market, the corresponding market is placed in the festival market to sell products.

[0076] If you select "No" and submit from the producer terminal, the corresponding market will not be placed in the festival marketplace. Furthermore, if no message is selected and a certain amount of time has elapsed, the message will be terminated. (However, the above method applies when sending a message asking for a specific opinion from the platform server to the producer or consumer terminal, so its explanation will be omitted below.)

[0077] Another example is a step of setting a festival market for a considerable period of time within the period from the first shipment time to the last shipment time of the product, such as for agricultural and marine products, in which AI receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the product name, shipment period, and related market list according to the learned model, and transmits the extracted product name, shipment period, and market list to the platform server, and after the platform server opens a festival market, it transmits a message to the producer terminal of the market on the list asking whether to participate in the festival market, and when the producer terminal selects and transmits participation in the festival market, the market is placed in the festival market to sell the product.

[0078] Another embodiment is a method in which a producer who has newly opened a market during a festival participates in the festival market by accessing an application and selecting a festival market participation request from a producer terminal that has newly opened a market and transmitting it to a platform server, and then AI receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the festival name and a related market list according to a learned model, verifies whether the extracted market list matches the market of the producer terminal, and then transmits the verified result to the platform server, and then the market of the producer terminal that has been confirmed to match by the platform server is placed in the festival market to sell products.

[0079] Producers can boost sales by selling their products at festival markets, while consumers can experience a variety of festivals held simultaneously in multiple regions and purchase products with the best value. Furthermore, local governments and other relevant departments can easily support market development through festival markets and reap the benefits of enhanced support policies.

[0080] In one embodiment, according to the stage of opening a flea market that allows producers to quickly dispose of products that exceed the appropriate inventory or products that are left over in small quantities for sale, AI receives a list of markets from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts a list of markets where the inventory quantity of products held is greater than the appropriate inventory quantity according to a learned model, and transmits the extracted list of markets to the platform server. Then, the platform server transmits a message to the producer terminal of the market on the list asking whether to sell in the flea market. When the producer terminal selects and transmits the products to be sold in the flea market, the discount rate, quantity, etc., the market is placed in the flea market and the products are sold.

[0081] In another embodiment, the AI ​​receives a list of markets from the cloud under the control of the platform server, subtracts the sold quantity from the total quantity to be sold according to the learned model, extracts a list of markets where the remaining quantity is less than a certain percentage, and transmits the extracted list of markets to the platform server. Then, the platform server sends a message to the producer terminal of each market on the list asking whether to sell at the flea market. When the producer terminal selects and transmits the product, discount rate, quantity, etc. to be sold at the flea market, the corresponding market is placed in the flea market and the product is sold.

[0082] Producers have the advantage of being able to dispose of products that exceed their optimal inventory levels and close sales early, while consumers have the advantage of purchasing products that offer the best value for money.

[0083] In one embodiment, according to the stage of opening a package marketplace that allows producers who produce different products within a certain region to sell them as a package, AI receives a list of markets from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the names of regions where package sales have been confirmed and a list of related markets according to a learned model, and sends the extracted names of regions where package sales have been confirmed and a list of related markets to the platform server. Then, the platform server opens a package marketplace (regional package market) on the producer representative terminal, and then sends a message to the producer terminal of the market on the list asking whether to sell in the package marketplace. When the producer terminal specifies and sends the products to be sold in the package marketplace, the selling price per packaging unit, the quantity, etc., the corresponding market is placed in the package marketplace to sell the products.

[0084] Producers can increase sales by bundling not only the products they sell in bundles, but also products that would otherwise be sold in bulk, and consumers can benefit by purchasing a variety of products at once.

[0085] In one embodiment, in accordance with the steps for opening a direct purchasing agent marketplace to enable direct purchasing agents in a certain region to directly purchase very small quantities of products or large quantities of products, when information on products to be directly purchased, such as the name of the product to be directly purchased, the place of production of the product, the product packaging unit, the price by product grade, the desired quantity to be directly purchased, and the total quantity to be directly purchased, is entered and transmitted on the direct purchasing agent terminal, the platform server transmits and stores the received information to the cloud, and places the corresponding market in the direct purchasing agent marketplace to enable direct purchasing of products.

[0086] Direct purchasing agents have the advantage of stabilizing profits and eliminating inventory burden by diversifying the products they sell and securing sales channels in advance. In particular, single-person household consumers can purchase products that were difficult to purchase in entire boxes in very small quantities and purchase them through direct purchasing agent markets near their residences or workplaces where product delivery is convenient. Consumers who need products in large quantities can also purchase products scattered in small quantities across various regions through direct purchasing agent markets.

[0087] In one embodiment, according to the stage of opening a reservation sales marketplace that allows producers to pre-sell their products, when a producer terminal registers and transmits product information such as the name of the product being produced or scheduled to be produced, the expected shipping date, the expected shipping quantity, and the price by product grade, the platform server transmits and stores the received information to the cloud, and places the corresponding market in the reservation sales marketplace to sell the product.

[0088] In another embodiment, when a product is out of stock during a purchase payment process on a consumer terminal, the platform server checks whether a reservation product has been registered in the relevant market, and if a reservation product has been registered, a message asking whether to reserve the product in the relevant market is sent to the UI of the consumer terminal along with a message notifying that the product is out of stock, and when the consumer terminal selects and sends a reservation purchase, the platform server connects the consumer terminal to a reservation sales marketplace and then sends the reservation product in the relevant market to the consumer terminal, thereby displaying the reservation product in the UI.

[0089] Producers have the advantage of securing sales channels in advance, and consumers have the advantage of being able to pre-order their preferred products.

[0090] In one embodiment, according to the sales price adjustment step that quickly checks for abnormal sales prices among the sales prices set by the producer and adjusts the sales prices, AI receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts a list of markets where the product sales price is set lower than the average auction price according to a learned model, and transmits the extracted market list to the platform server. Then, the platform server transmits a sales price confirmation message to the producer terminal of the market on the list, so that the producer terminal adjusts the sales price.

[0091] Another embodiment is that the AI ​​receives a list of markets from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts a list of markets where the selling price of products is set higher than the average consumer price according to a learned model, and transmits the extracted list of markets to the platform server. Then, the platform server sends a selling price confirmation message to the producer terminal of the market on the list, so that the producer terminal adjusts the selling price.

[0092] Another embodiment is that AI receives big data from the cloud under the control of the platform server, and extracts data on the average auction winning price and average consumer price in major regions for each product based on the learned model, and then extracts the data extracted in the first instance for each producer terminal selling the product, and transmits the data extracted in the second instance to the platform server, and then the platform server transmits the data extracted in the second instance to the producer terminal selling the product, and displays the average auction winning price and average consumer price of the product on the UI.

[0093] Producers can achieve a reasonable profit by not selling too cheaply, while avoiding losing consumer trust by not selling too expensively. Furthermore, it can be used to adjust product shipment timing and volume.

[0094] In one embodiment, according to the sales status management step that allows producers to check the sales status in real time, AI receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the cumulative sales quantity and cumulative sales amount according to the learned model, and transmits the extracted cumulative sales quantity and cumulative sales amount to the platform server, and the platform server transmits the cumulative sales quantity and cumulative sales amount to each producer terminal to display the cumulative sales quantity and cumulative sales amount on the UI.

[0095] Another embodiment is that the AI ​​receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the inventory quantity by subtracting the sold quantity from the total quantity to be sold according to the learned model, and transmits the extracted inventory quantity to the platform server. The platform server then transmits the inventory quantity to each producer terminal and displays the inventory quantity on the UI.

[0096] Producers have the advantage of being able to check sales status in real time, making it easier to settle accounts and manage inventory.

[0097] In order to eliminate the inconvenience of the producer having to manage the transaction ledger separately, one embodiment of the transaction ledger management step is that when the producer terminal checks the necessary items in a spreadsheet and sends them to the platform server, the AI ​​receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the selection item data of the corresponding market according to the learned model, and sends the extracted data of the corresponding market to the platform server, and the platform server sends the data to the producer terminal and displays the data in the spreadsheet of the UI.

[0098] In another embodiment, when the festival manager terminal checks the required items in a spreadsheet and sends them to the platform server, the AI ​​receives a market list from the cloud under the control of the platform server, extracts the list of markets participating in the festival market and the selection item data according to the learned model, and sends the extracted market list and the selection item data to the platform server, and the platform server sends the selection item data of the markets in the list to the festival manager terminal, and sequentially displays the data of the markets in the list in the spreadsheet of the UI.

[0099] Producers and festival managers can download spreadsheets and integrate them with other transaction records. Festival managers can conveniently manage policy costs and statistics related to festival market operations. They can also analyze performance during the festival period to inform future planning.

[0100] Figure 3 is a flowchart showing the process of paying for a product searched for in the present invention and delivering the paid product.

[0101] In one embodiment, according to the steps of purchasing a product searched for by a consumer on a consumer terminal, the consumer searches for a product on the consumer terminal, decides to purchase the product, puts the product in the shopping cart, registers the delivery address, name, contact information, and quantity, and then clicks the payment icon to send a payment request to the platform server. The platform server then sends the payment request to the payment company server, and after the payment company server makes the payment, the payment information is sent back to the platform server. The platform server then sends the payment information to the consumer terminal and the producer terminal.

[0102] At the same time, the platform server may also include transmitting the shipping location and delivery details of the paid product to the courier company server.

[0103] If there are multiple delivery locations, the consumer can select Add Delivery Location on the consumer terminal and enter additional delivery locations.

[0104] In one embodiment, according to the stage of delivering a product for which a transaction has been concluded, when a product delivery request is sent from a producer terminal to a platform server (subsequent procedures may proceed even without a separate request), the platform server transmits the shipping location, shipper name, product name, delivery quantity, size, weight, volume, delivery location, recipient name, contact information, etc. to a designated courier company server, and when the courier company server transmits a waybill number to the platform server, the platform server transmits the waybill number to the producer terminal and the consumer terminal, and thereafter, the consumer can check the product delivery status on the consumer terminal, and when product delivery is completed, the courier company server transmits a delivery completion message to the platform server and the consumer terminal.

[0105] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the attached drawings as described above, this is merely an exemplary description, and various modifications and variations may be implemented by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains.

[0106] The scope of the present invention should be determined by the description of the patent claims below, and all technical ideas within the scope equivalent thereto should be interpreted as being included in the scope of the present invention.

[0107] The present invention, which focuses on the convenience of consumers and producers, i.e., the AI-based direct transaction market platform system and business method, can be utilized in the distribution industry as it enables direct transactions between consumers and producers and further promotes direct transactions.
