Photograph a donated item. Get a complete eBay, Vinted or Depop listing in 30 seconds. AI handles title, description, pricing, categories and cross-listing automatically.
Traditional charity shop listing requires a volunteer to research item specifics, write descriptions, look up comparable prices, fill platform-specific fields and then repeat the process for every marketplace. For a shop processing dozens of items per week, this creates a significant bottleneck.
AI photo listing tools eliminate this bottleneck. A volunteer photographs the item; the AI analyses the image using computer vision to identify brand, garment type, size, colour, condition and category. The system then writes a marketplace-optimised listing, fills 200+ item attributes and suggests a data-backed price from recent sold listings. The entire workflow takes approximately 30 seconds per item.
Minimist (minimist.com) is built specifically for charity retailers and second-hand shops. It is trusted by 30+ charity retailers worldwide, including Helen & Douglas House.
"Minimist has helped our shops and eComm team price and list items easily."
