Overview

SeekerLens turns every Seeker device into a money-making camera. Photographers earn SOL by fulfilling location-based photo bounties or selling licensed content — all verified on-chain.

The Problem

Traditional stock photography is broken:

Pain Point Impact
Platforms take 40-60% commission Creators lose, buyers overpay
No way to request specific content at specific locations Brands settle for generic
Zero provenance — no proof of authenticity Buyers can't verify
Payments take 30-90 days Creators wait months

Our Solution

Three pillars. One platform:

  1. Bounty Board — Anyone posts a photo request with a SOL reward. Nearby photographers fulfill it, get paid instantly.
  2. Content Marketplace — Creators list photos with tiered licenses. Buyers acquire with SOL, recorded on-chain.
  3. Discovery Feed — Trending content, top creators, and open bounties for organic growth.

Features

Core Features

Feature Description
In-App Camera Live GPS tagging with reverse geocoding
NFT Minting One-tap compressed NFT via Metaplex Bubblegum (~$0.001/mint)
Tiered Licensing Personal (0.05 SOL) / Commercial (0.5 SOL) / Exclusive (2.0 SOL)
Bounty System Create, fund, browse, fulfill, approve & pay — full lifecycle
Wallet Integration Mobile Wallet Adapter — native one-tap transactions
Profile Gallery NFT collection + earnings dashboard
Network Toggle Devnet/mainnet switch for seamless testing

Solana Mobile Integration

SeekerLens leverages the full Solana Mobile Stack:

Capability How SeekerLens Uses It
Mobile Wallet Adapter One-tap wallet connect, sign transactions natively
Compressed NFTs (Bubblegum) Mint photos as NFTs for fractions of a cent
Sub-second finality Bounty payments and license purchases settle instantly
Seeker device camera Purpose-built for mobile content creation
dApp Store distribution Native Android app, not a web wrapper

How It Works

Bounty Flow

Photographer sees bounty → Opens camera → GPS auto-tags →
Captures photo → Mints as compressed NFT → Submits →
Bounty creator approves → SOL transfers instantly

Marketplace Flow

Creator posts photo → Sets license prices → Photo minted as cNFT →
Buyer browses marketplace → Acquires license → SOL to creator →
License recorded on-chain

Every photo = an NFT. Every transaction = on Solana. Every license = verifiable.

Innovation

What makes SeekerLens different from anything else:

Innovation Description
Location-Based Photo Bounties Nobody else does this on-chain. Uber for photography meets Shutterstock on Solana.
GPS + Timestamp in NFT Metadata Cryptographic proof of where and when every photo was taken.
Tiered Licensing On-Chain Personal, commercial, exclusive licenses as Solana transactions — not database entries.
Compressed NFTs Minting costs ~$0.001 instead of $2+. Every casual photo can be an NFT.
Two-Sided Marketplace Both supply (marketplace) and demand (bounties) from day one — self-reinforcing flywheel.

Roadmap

  • Bounty board — create, browse, fulfill, approve & pay
  • Content marketplace — post, license, purchase
  • Compressed NFT minting via Bubblegum
  • In-app camera with GPS auto-tagging
  • Mobile Wallet Adapter integration
  • On-chain license purchasing
  • Profile gallery & earnings dashboard
  • On-chain escrow via Anchor program
  • Video content support
  • GPS radius verification
  • Creator reputation system
  • SKR token economy
  • iOS support
