Shiftly Auto alternative: Shiftly publishes no price and starts with a demo. TurboSell starts free, posts under the rep's own login, and prices per store.

## What Shiftly Auto is
A Marketplace posting tool built for dealership managers. Its site describes inventory-feed sync, posting a car "in literal seconds" (its words), and a manager dashboard that tracks which rep listed what and how the posts perform. It is one of the two names that come up most in AI answers about this category, and for good reason: it is polished and it is built for the store, not the salesperson.
## What it costs
Shiftly does not publish a price. Every path on its site ends in "Schedule a demo". Reps on Reddit have quoted around $129 a month plus a setup fee; a competitor's comparison page puts a store plan near $1,000 a month. We cannot confirm either, so treat both as hearsay until Shiftly tells you.
## Where TurboSell is different
- Price is on the page: Seller $39 a month for one salesperson ($9.99 your first month), Store $199 a month for every seller at the store. Yearly is ten months' price for twelve. - You start free with 5 listings and no card, on your own inventory, before anyone calls you. - It is a Chrome extension with a nightly AutoPilot. Posts go out under the salesperson's own Facebook login — from their browser during the day and, overnight, from their browser if it's open or otherwise from TurboSell using the session they connected, so the computer can be off. - The seat is yours. Seller $39 is billed to the salesperson and goes with you when you change stores; with Shiftly the store buys the seats and you install with the store's access key. - Inventory comes from the dealer's website or the listing sites already in use (AutoTrader, Cars.com, CarGurus, Edmunds and about fifteen more). No DMS feed to set up. - A nightly scheduler posts a steady batch. Price changes follow to the live listing; sold cars come down.
## Where Shiftly may still be the better pick
If you are a general manager who wants a dashboard of rep activity above all else, Shiftly built that first. TurboSell's Store plan gives whoever pays a view of every seller's live and recent cars, but it is a lighter manager view than Shiftly's.
## How to decide in an afternoon
Install TurboSell, import your lot, post five real cars. Book the Shiftly demo the same day. By the evening you have one tool's price and behaviour in hand and the other's sales call on the calendar.
