Questions, answered

Will it publish listings without someone approving them first?

No - every listing is saved as a draft on AutoTrader and Cars.com. Your marketing team reviews, adds photos if needed, and publishes each one themselves.

What about vehicle photos - does it upload those too?

WebRun stages the spec data and written description. Photos need to be added by your team before publishing - this is intentional so a human checks the listing looks right.

Can it post to other portals like CarGurus or Facebook Marketplace?

Yes - add any listing platform you have dealer access to and WebRun will stage a draft there as well.

Put this on autopilot.
