Marketplace Intelligence: Pricing, Demand and Sale Probability
Dmitri Derevjanko built Marketplace Intelligence, a six-model pricing and demand system that recommends listing prices, estimates sale probability, and shows the training data behind each decision.
This is one of 10+ independent public projects by Dmitri Derevjanko. 100+ additional workflows were delivered professionally, mostly under confidentiality, and are not documented here.

Problem
Marketplace pricing work often lives in notebooks: one model for price, another for demand, no comparable listings, and no way for a non-ML user to see why a number appeared. Isolated metrics do not help someone set a listing price.
Solution
One FastAPI and React product where pricing, sale probability, demand forecasts, comparable retrieval, funnel diagnostics, and explainability share a single workflow, with production-facing champions labelled separately from weaker diagnostic modules.
What Dmitri Derevjanko built
Dmitri trained and evaluated the models, chose champions on validation metrics, built the API contracts, the SaaS-style dashboard, training-data preview, what-if simulations, Docker demo startup, and regression tests. The public demo is his independent system, not a client case study.
Architecture
- Mercari listings feed a hybrid Ridge/router pricing champion over 1.47M searchable comparables (validation RMSLE 0.4157, MAE 8.4999).
- MerRec behavioural events train a blended LightGBM sale-probability model on a 5M-event sample (ROC-AUC 0.8797).
- Olist category-month series drive demand forecasts (R2 0.9048, WMAPE 24.35%).
- Comparable retrieval explains a recommended price with real similar listings, not only a score.
- MLflow artifacts, health views, and dataset lineage sit next to the user-facing analysis screens.
- Docker Compose starts backend, frontend, and artifacts together for a repeatable demo.

Result
A demo-ready marketplace ML product: six cooperating models, real training-data inspection, what-if pricing, and honest confidence labels for sparse funnel stages.
Limitations
- Trained on public Mercari, MerRec, and Olist datasets, not a live seller's private inventory.
- Sale-probability used a 5M-event sample of a much larger behavioural log; funnel stages such as offer remain sparse.
- The UI is a decision-support demo, not an automatic repricer connected to a production marketplace account.
