This guide covers everything you need to know to get started as a seller on SellerShorts, from setting up your account to understanding the seller dashboard.

Overview

Build AI Agents and publish them as AI Tools. As a seller on SellerShorts, you'll publish AI Tools that solve specific selling problems. These AI Tools can be purchased and run instantly to get results like SEO audits, product research, competitor analysis, and more.

Setting up your seller profile

Before you can start selling, you'll need to complete your seller profile setup:
