DealSpotter is a Craigslist search tool created by Chris Said that uses random forests and regular expressions to detect good car deals. It scrapes Craigslist data to predict fair prices based on a car's model, year, and mileage, then highlights listings that are significantly below the predicted price. The tool is built using technologies like d3.js, Beautiful Soup, and regular expressions, and the creator has a PhD in neuroscience from Princeton and was a postdoc at NYU.
