New App Uses Artificial Intelligence to Help You Sell Your Stuff on eBay Like a Pro
SANTA CRUZ, Calif., July 31, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — SellHound today launched its smartphone app that lets anyone snap a few photos of an item and create an optimized eBay listing with a single tap – no typing necessary. The new app enables sellers to easily list countless items with professional descriptions and expert pricing. SellHound is rolling out for eBay today and will soon announce additional secondhand marketplace capability.
Download SellHound from Google Play or the App Store. To see how it works, please view the how-to video.
The new app’s innovative “recommerce” engine identifies a seller’s item and searches it across nearly two dozen of the most popular secondhand marketplaces, such as eBay, Poshmark and Mercari, and then creates the most effective listing to sell the item. By optimizing the listing, SellHound shortens the sales cycle and improves the seller’s margins.
“Selling on secondhand marketplaces is in our DNA as a company,” said Suzanne Wouk, CEO and co-founder of SellHound and on eBay since it was called AuctionWeb. “We designed this app from the ground up to eliminate the cumbersome and time-consuming issues we as eBay resellers face every day.”
The company will initially focus on fashion, including men’s, women’s and children’s clothing, shoes and accessories.
“Our vision is SellHound will list your item on all the appropriate secondhand marketplaces with one tap,” said Geoff Dillon, president and co-founder of SellHound. “We believe our solution has the capability to invigorate the recommerce movement that promotes sustainability through reselling and reuse.”

How It Works
After downloading SellHound from Google Play or the App Store, simply take a few photos of your fashion item.
SellHound then uses a combination of artificial intelligence and Humans-in-the-Loop to identify your item and search multiple secondhand marketplaces for comparable items and determine the best language to sell your item.
SellHound crafts a title, description, competitive price and shipping suggestion. These generated listings are optimized for search engines to ensure the right buyers find your product. You can then edit the listing as needed or simply tap “post” to go live on your eBay account.
