What it is
OpenClassify is an open-source platform for building classified-ad and marketplace websites. It runs on the web, can be self-hosted, and offers API access. A photo can be used to prepare a listing’s category, title, and description with models such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. Listings support images and video, and real-time messaging connects owners with visitors. Marketplace tools include store and business profiles, complaints, notifications, comments, listing approval, and content review. For monetization, it includes membership packages, featured listings, and payment collection, with integrations such as Stripe, PayPal, Iyzico, PayTR, and Paddle. Search options include Algolia, autocomplete, location and geo-distance search, and multilingual support. The project identifies its code and modules as open source under the MIT license. The maker says it is designed to help people with little or no website-design knowledge create a marketplace. Its listed plan is free.
