Your AI client pulls pending inventory and approves new listings based on your instructions. You get a way to manage your marketplace without opening the admin panel. This setup gives you full control over your inventory via chat.

Moderation outcomes.

Where your actions land.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of checking and approving items.

APPROVED

Live listings

The AI pushes vetted items live. These listings appear immediately on your storefront.

PENDING

New inventory

The AI pulls a list of all items waiting for review. You see what needs attention right in the chat.

REJECTED

Flagged items

If an item breaks your rules, the AI identifies it. You decide whether to ignore it or move to the next one.

HUMAN

Manual review

When an item is too complex, the AI flags it for you. You handle these edge cases in the Sharetribe dashboard.

The workflow

What your AI does when a new listing arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat window and your Sharetribe backend.

    The AI scans your marketplace to find every item currently waiting for moderation.

  3. Approve valid listings

    Once you confirm a listing is good, the AI pushes the command to make it public.

    approve_listing

  4. Summarize inventory

FAQ

How the moderator behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete listings for me?

    No. The AI can only list, get, or approve listings. Deleting items must be done manually in Sharetribe.

  • 02

    Does the AI change listing prices?

    No. The AI can read the price using the get tool, but it does not have the capability to edit or update listing data.

  • 03

    How does the AI know if a listing is bad?

    The AI relies on the instructions you give it in your chat. It reads the listing data and compares it to your specific rules.

  • 04

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, as long as the client supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

  • 05

    Will the AI approve everything automatically?

    No. The AI only performs the approval action when you explicitly tell it to do so in the chat.
