Two different jobs — creating vs managing
Vela manages the catalog you already have, across marketplaces. ListifyAI writes the listings you don't have yet, fast — and lets you start free. Many larger shops use both.
Watch ListifyAI turn a photo into a finished listing
Paste a product photo or idea and get the finished title, description and all 13 tags in ~10 seconds — free, no sign-up.
Which one should you actually use?
Choose ListifyAI if…
your bottleneck is writing new listings, you sell mainly on Etsy, and you want a free plan and photo-to-listing generation.
Choose Vela if…
you manage a large catalog across several marketplaces and need bulk editing, scheduling, photo editing and multi-channel sync.
ListifyAI to create the listings, Vela to bulk-manage them across channels.
