How dealers use Pulse

Post the whole lot

Pull your inventory from AutoTrader, CarGurus or your DMS feed, and post every front-line car to Marketplace with a description written for you.

Photos that sell

Smart image filtering drops the blurry, duplicate and interior-of-the-glovebox shots and puts the best exterior first.

Know what worked

Attribution tracking ties Marketplace leads back to the listing and the salesperson, so you post more of what sells.

Questions about switching from Shiftly

What does Shiftly do, and what does Pulse replace?

Shiftly Auto is listing software that posts a dealership's inventory to Facebook Marketplace. Pulse does the same job — posts your cars to Marketplace with AI-written descriptions and cleaned-up photos, and tracks the leads — for a fraction of the reported price, with a free trial and no contract.

Where does Pulse get my inventory?

Add cars from your AutoTrader or CarGurus page in one click, or connect a feed: your DMS over SFTP, a CSV, or your inventory provider's API key. New cars show up ready to post; sold cars drop off.

Does Pulse post automatically?

Pulse runs in your Chrome browser and posts through your own Facebook account, which is what keeps listings from being flagged. You choose the cadence; Pulse prepares every listing — description, photos, price — so posting is one click. Our Marketplace Playbook covers the cadence that works.

Can I get Pulse and recon software together?

Yes. Lotly Recon is $199/month and Pulse is sold separately. When you run both, they share one inventory, so your cars go from intake to front line to Marketplace in one system.
