Sellers are into it

“It felt weird at first, like I was giving away some control lol, but it has cut down so much time doing all the things I hate and having everything in one spot has been amazing!”

“I really like thrifting but I don’t have the time because I’m a working mom, so being able to do something I like without having to do the hard part has been a game changer.”

“The Sales Assistant has saved me hours — I save probably 5 to 6 hours per drop.”

“This is a game changer! Love love how easy it is to checkout for customers using a card, and the bid monitoring and payments part has been so helpful!”

Emily · Comeback Kids

“I had multiple people message me and say, ‘that was the slickest checkout experience I’ve ever had on Instagram.’”

“It’s definitely been helpful in ways I didn’t know I needed! I am pleasantly surprised how much I like the invoicing and bid update stuff. My customers have appreciated it and I’ve gotten lots of positive feedback — mostly from first-time customers!”

Instagram seller

“Overall went amazing, can’t wait to try it again for my next drop! I had several people tell me they loved the checkout process and how smooth it went!”

Life Changing! I am so excited about this. I was super behind yesterday and I STILL got a ton posted — in a much shorter amount of time than I would have if I hadn’t used it. 😮‍💨🤝🥹”

“It’s a small investment to gain some time and some more sanity back into running small shops.”

“I’ve been talking to so many sellers that are like right on the edge of signing up, and I’m like it’s literally the best thing ever. I basically have a part-time job convincing people to sign up lol.”

Your drop ended 47 minutes ago… and you’re still figuring out who won what.

Bids buried in comments. DMs to send. Addresses to chase. Thryft Ship does that part — the second a comment lands.

What it actually does

The repetitive stuff, handled. The relationship, still yours.

Everything runs on rules you set — and you can edit every message. Nothing gets posted or answered in a way you didn’t approve.

Automation, comment by comment

Built to catch every bid, BIN, and “sold” — the second it lands

Our algorithm is built to understand what a bid looks like in your comments — it’s pattern-matching, not AI. It confirms bids, sends outbid notices, and DMs winners in real time. No spreadsheet, no scrolling back after close.

100 bids, 0 spreadsheets
You keep the relationship

The conversations still belong to you

Questions and real back-and-forth stay with you — that’s your shop. It only handles the repetitive replies, in wording you write and can change anytime.

Rules you set · every message editable
Fits how you already sell

Post how you always post — then just link it

Keep your own rhythm on Instagram. Post your drop yourself and link it, and it takes over the comments — or let Thryft Ship post for you. Your call.

Link a drop in seconds
One-click checkout

Winners get a link. You stop chasing addresses.

The winner gets a DM with a secure checkout link and their address on file. No manual handoffs, no “what’s your address again?”

Everything the Sales Assistant handles.

A quick run-through of what it takes care of during a drop — the bids, the DMs, the checkout, all of it.

A walkthrough of everything the Sales Assistant handled in one drop.

Straight up about the tech

Smart where it helps. Automated where it counts. Yours where it matters.

Yes, we use AI — but only for the tedious prep, and only with your approval. It never talks to your customers.

AI · optional

AI does the busywork

It groups your photos into items, drafts captions in your voice, and can scan your existing posts to import a drop. Nothing goes out until you say so — and if you’re not an AI fan, flip it off in settings and do it all yourself.

Automation · your rules

Automation runs the sale

Bids, BINs, “sold,” winner DMs, and checkout run on rules you set and can edit. Predictable and consistent — never improvised, never guessing.

100% you

You keep the conversation

Real questions get flagged straight to you. Your voice, your regulars, your community — that part is always, only yours.

Front to back

It runs your whole shop — not just the sale.

From planning a drop to shipping the last package, Thryft Ship is one hub for the entire flow — so you’re not duct-taping six apps together.

Plan List Sell Get paid Ship Track

The Sales Assistant needs payments on — that’s how buyers get a checkout. Thryft Ship checkout (card, Apple Pay, and more) is a simple 2% on items (never shipping) + standard card processing, covered by you or your buyer. You can add Venmo alongside it, fee-free. Turning on payments also walks you through a quick Stripe verification, so buyers know you’re a real seller. Your money always lands in your own account.
Valeria, founder of Thryft Ship
Hi, I’m Valeria

I built this because I sold through Instagram myself.

I know the 11pm “wait, who won the green jacket?” spiral, the copy-paste DMs, the address chasing. Thryft Ship is the tool I wished I had — built by someone who actually ran the drops, for sellers who still want to sound like themselves.

Questions, answered

Does it talk to my customers for me?

Only the repetitive parts — bid confirmations, outbid notices, winner DMs, checkout. Real questions and conversations stay with you, and every automatic message uses wording you set and can edit.

Do you use AI?

Yes — for the tedious prep, and always with your approval. AI groups your photos into items, drafts captions in your voice, and can scan your posts to import a drop. It’s completely optional, too — turn the AI features off in settings and do it all yourself. What it never does is talk to your customers: bids, DMs, and checkout run on rules you set, and real questions come straight to you.

Do I have to change how I post?

No. Keep posting the way you already do and just link your drop — the assistant handles the comments from there. Or let Thryft Ship post the drop for you. Either works.

Is it reliable enough to trust with a live drop?

The assistant reads comments in real time and catches bids, BINs, and claims the moment they land — including ones that came in before you linked. You can watch it work and adjust any setting on the fly.

Can I still offer Venmo?

Yes — once you’ve turned on payments, you can add Venmo right alongside the built-in checkout, and there’s no Thryft Ship fee on Venmo sales. One thing we’ve noticed, though: buyers usually reach for Venmo just because it’s all that was offered. Give them a real checkout (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Cash App, Klarna, Affirm & Afterpay) and most are happy to use it — you get paid instantly, and it’s tracked and protected. Venmo stays there for the buyers who truly prefer it; it’s just a bit more manual since you confirm those yourself.

Is Thryft Ship really free?

Yes. Collecting orders and printing discounted USPS labels is free — no subscription, and payments aren’t even required. Turn on payments only if you want to (a simple 2% on items + standard processing), and add the Sales Assistant for $29.99/mo whenever you’re ready.

How long does setup take?

About 10 minutes: make an account, connect Instagram, turn on payments, and you’re ready for your next drop. Our step-by-step Setup guide walks you through every setting — and support is a DM away if you get stuck.
