How it works

Eight short guides, recorded on the real product

Every video below is a live recording against real inventory — no mockups. Read the steps, watch the clip, and you know the whole product.

Guide 1 · Getting started

From sign-in to a synced catalog

You don’t enter inventory into Listari — you point Listari at the website that already has it.

1
Open Onboarding and paste your inventory URL
Any page that lists your vehicles works — your dealer site, your listings page. Pick the “Vehicles” vertical.
2
Hit Smart scrape and review the preview
Listari reads the page and shows what it found — titles, prices, photos — with a confidence score before anything is imported.
3
Click “Use this source”
The full catalog imports in the background and every photo is mirrored, so posts never break when your site changes.
4
Open Inventory
Your whole catalog is there — searchable, priced, photo-ready. From here on it stays in sync automatically.

Guide 2 · Posting

Pick a vehicle, approve a post

Ari — your AI copywriter — drafts channel-ready posts. Nothing ships without your approval.

1
Find the vehicle in Inventory and click Post
Search by year, make, model, or VIN. The Post button hands that exact vehicle to Ari in chat.
2
Watch Ari draft
Ari pulls the listing data, writes per-channel copy in your brand voice, and picks the best photos from the gallery — live, in front of you.
3
Review each channel tab
Facebook, Instagram, and Marketplace each get their own caption with character limits. Edit, regenerate with a hint, or copy the text out.
4
Approve & post
Facebook posts in seconds via the API. Marketplace fills in your own Chrome session through the extension — you always click Publish yourself.

Guide 3 · Routines

Your catalog updates itself

A routine re-scrapes your source on a schedule so inventory never goes stale.

1
Add a routine
Point it at your inventory URL and pick a cadence — every 6 hours, 12 hours, or daily.
2
Run it on demand when you need to
“Run now” queues a scrape immediately — the status flips as soon as it finishes.
3
Read the card
Each routine shows its last run, how many vehicles it found, how many sold units it retired, and any errors. Pause or delete any time.

Guide 4 · Sold & take-downs

Sold means sold — everywhere

Sold inventory still live on Marketplace gets dealers flagged. Listari keeps a take-down list for you.

1
Mark it sold
Search the vehicle in Inventory’s table view and hit Sold. Routines also retire sold vehicles automatically when they disappear from your site.
2
Check the dashboard banner
Any sold vehicle that still has a live Marketplace post shows up in an amber banner — that’s your take-down list.
3
Click “Open on Marketplace”
Each row links straight to the live listing so you can pull it down in seconds.
4
Deal fell through? Relist
One click flips the status back and the vehicle is postable again.

Guide 5 · Data freshness

Know exactly how fresh your data is

Every listing carries its scrape timestamp — and you can refresh on demand.

1
Read the header
Inventory shows “synced Xm ago” — the last time Listari confirmed your catalog against your site.
2
Check any row’s “Last seen”
Per-vehicle timestamps show when the scraper last saw that exact unit on your site.
3
Hit “refresh now” when you can’t wait
Queues a scrape immediately — new arrivals and price changes land in minutes. Routines do the same on a schedule.

Guide 6 · The extension

Install + pair the Marketplace extension

Marketplace posts publish from your own Facebook session via the Listari Chrome extension. Direct install while our Chrome Web Store listing is in review — about two minutes.

1
Download the zip from your dashboard
The “Set up Marketplace posting” card walks you through it. Unzip the file anywhere.
2
Load it in Chrome
chrome://extensions → turn on Developer mode → “Load unpacked” → pick the unzipped folder.
3
Get your 6-digit code
Settings → Browser extension → Pair extension. Codes expire in five minutes.
4
Type it into the extension’s welcome screen
That pairs this Chrome profile to your dealership — a revocable token, never your Listari password or Facebook login.

Guide 7 · The widget

Once paired, a small dock appears on Marketplace’s create page. It fills the form; you press Publish.

1
See what’s next
The dock shows the next approved draft — title, price, and how many are queued behind it. Pause or skip any time.
2
Click Fill
The extension opens the real create form and types everything in — watch the per-field checklist tick through photos, year, make, model, mileage, price, and description.
3
“Done. Your turn.”
Listari never auto-publishes. The dock hands off with the form filled — you review and hit Facebook’s own Publish button.

Guide 8 · Results

Nothing is a black box

See what posted, where, and when — down to the permalink.

1
Start at the dashboard
Posts this week, error rate, AI spend against your cap, live listings — plus a feed of everything that happened in the last 24 hours.
2
Work the Queue
“Waiting on you” needs an approval; “In flight” shows per-platform progress live; “Recently posted” is today’s wins.
3
Audit History
Every post ever made, per-platform status, and a permalink straight to the live post.
