How SnapList by Sahaay works

Four steps, no design or writing experience needed. Here's exactly what happens at each one.

1 Add a photo

Tap the photo tile and either take a picture or choose one from your gallery — up to four angles of the same item. A clean background helps the AI see the product clearly, but it isn't required.

2 Tell it more optional

Add anything the photo can't show — material, size, price, brand — plus the tone you want and where you're selling. Skipping this is fine; the AI will describe what it can see and stay general about the rest.

3 The AI writes your listing

By default, your photo(s) and notes go to a free shared AI connection — no key needed. If you've added your own key in Settings, they go directly from your device to that provider instead. Either way, the AI looks at the image and writes a title, a short and a long description, highlight bullets, and search tags — all in one pass, usually within a few seconds.

4 Copy, edit, or reuse it

Every field is editable before you use it. Copy individual sections or everything at once, download it as a text file, or come back to it later from the History menu — it's saved on this device.

Which AI writes the listing?

By default, a shared connection we operate (limited to a small number of free generations per visitor per day). For unlimited, fully private use, connect your own key in Settings — Google Gemini or OpenRouter, both offer a genuinely free tier. A key you paste is never sent anywhere except your browser's local storage, and every request then goes straight from your device to that provider, not through a server of ours.

Frequently asked

Do I need to pay for anything?

No. SnapList itself is free and works instantly with no signup. If you want unlimited use, the AI providers it can connect to both offer free API keys with no credit card required. See Settings in the app for step-by-step instructions on getting one.

Is my data private?

With your own key, yes — there's no server of ours in the middle. With the default free option, your photo passes through a server we operate just long enough to forward it to the AI and return the result; we don't store it. Full detail is on the Privacy Policy page.

Which marketplaces does this work for?

Any of them — Amazon, Etsy, Flipkart, Shopify, eBay, Instagram/WhatsApp catalogues, or your own website. The listing is just plain text you copy in; nothing is tied to a specific platform.

What if I don't have an API key yet?

Open Settings inside the app — it links directly to where to get a free one and walks through the exact steps for whichever provider you pick.
