ListingForge is a local-first web application for small online sellers who find writing product listings tedious. It turns product photos into draft shop listings for Etsy or eBay. Using Gemma 3 vision model through Ollama, ListingForge creates a title, 100-word description, tags and a condition note. The tool also provides a "Things only you can fill in" box, which lists details that photos cannot reveal, such as size, material, price, shipping, and whether the item is handmade, vintage or mass-produced.
ListingForge runs entirely on the user's computer with no account, cloud, or photo transfer needed. The demo is not hosted for privacy reasons. It targets small sellers who want an honest starting draft based on their photos.
