VendorForge AI: An Autonomous Reseller Copilot That Turns Clutter into Cash

Description and use

VendorForge AI automates research, pricing, and copy generation for resellers on Etsy, eBay, and Shopify, saving over 3 hours of labor and eliminating token costs while protecting sensitive data.

Problem

Resellers face a “Death Pile” time sink of 15‑30 minutes per item for research, SEO, and multi‑platform listings, and suffer from pricing guesswork that can erode margins or tie up inventory, while closed‑API SaaS tools add 10% token‑fee costs and risk exposing trade secrets.

Outcome

Resellers reported saving over 3 hours of listing labor per Sunday batch and confirmed willingness to pay $15/month, while open‑weight models eliminated token fees and protected trade secrets.

Workflow

• 1. Intake sourced item and photo specs
• 2. Query MongoDB Atlas Vector Search for semantic memory
• 3. Scrape live eBay & Etsy sold comps via SerpApi
• 4. Run TabPFN‑3.5 for price, sale probability, and anomaly flagging
• 5. Generate platform‑specific copy with Google Gemma 2
• 6. Produce 15‑second voiceover with ElevenLabs
• 7. Record telemetry with Sentry Agent Tracing

Evidence

After sourcing 20 items at a thrift store or estate sale, a seller spends 15 to 30 minutes per item manually researching sold comps, writing SEO titles, counting tags, and tailoring descriptions for 3 different platforms.
