Getting started¶
Now you see it. Now it's sold.
Your closet is full… with nothing to wear. Your camera roll is full… with nothing listed. …and that listing you started in March 2021? Still a draft.
Poof! is an app that helps you post items on online marketplaces, from your photos to the listing to the sale.
Available on request
The Mac installer is available on request while Poof! is in beta — it isn't a public download yet.
What it does¶
- Bring in photos. Choose photos from your computer or connect a photo folder. Your original files stay exactly as they are.
- Sort the pile. Group photos into items, each with its own photos, details and a short code such as
LQ-0001. AI can suggest groups if you switch it on. - Make it look good. Fix colors, straighten and crop in the built-in photo editor. With a cut-out from Photoshop or the free cut-out add-on, swap a messy background for a clean one.
- Write the listing. Write a title and description yourself, or let AI draft one from your notes and photos, which you can edit.
- Post it yourself. Your listing photos come out cropped, named and in order, cover first. Copy the title, description and price into the marketplace's Sell page, post, and paste the link back.
- Mark it sold. Record the sale, keep a To ship list and print a shipping label.
You stay in charge¶
Poof! runs on your computer. Your photos and listings stay there.
A local app in your browser. No account, no cloud.
Your original photos are never changed. Edits are saved as new copies.
Originals are opened read-only; every edit is a separate file with its own history.
AI is off until you switch it on, and then it is local AI or your own ChatGPT subscription.
The default setting is Local only — no OpenAI.
Every AI guess stays marked unconfirmed until you check it.
A detail is confirmed only when you check it or edit it yourself.
Nothing posts for you. You post each listing yourself.
Poof! sits beside the marketplace's form and copies fields; it never types, clicks or submits there.
