What’s New at eBay Open 2025: AI Tools, Live Commerce & More

eBay’s Innovation Engine Fueled by Seller Needs

eBay Open 2025 isn’t just packed with product announcements and flashy tech; it’s a clear sign that eBay is investing seriously in the seller community. The new AI tools, faster listing workflows, livestream selling features, and overall improvements aren’t just cosmetic upgrades. They’re part of a larger push to make eBay a more powerful, scalable platform for sellers like us.

So naturally, some of you might be wondering...

So, How Is eBay Affording All This?

Well, let’s just say eBay made a ton of money this year.

And for those of you who loved math more than relaxing on the beaches of Thailand… this part’s for you.

eBay’s strong performance over the past few quarters has given it both the confidence and the capital to go all-in on seller tools. With four consecutive quarters of growth, a strong cash position, and continued buyer activity across the platform, eBay is in a position to invest.

In Q1 2025 alone, eBay brought in $2.6 billion in revenue and processed $18.8 billion in GMV (Gross Merchandise Volume). They returned $759 million to shareholders via buybacks and dividends, while holding a 23.8% GAAP operating margin and a 29.8% non-GAAP margin. Oh, and they’re working with $787 million in operating cash flow.

That free cash flow has enabled bold investments, including the acquisition of Caramel for vehicle-commerce capabilities, expansion of the Authenticity Guarantee, Klarna BNPL integration, and cross-listing deals with Facebook Marketplace. These strategic plays pave the way for what to expect at eBay Open 2025: a cohesive ecosystem where AI, trust, and commerce converge.

In short, eBay isn’t just doing fine. They’re actively pouring resources into tools, technology, and support that sellers will see front and center at eBay Open 2025, from next-gen AI listing tools to livestream selling features, smarter payments, and more.

AI-Powered Features Sellers Will See Up Close

Here’s a breakdown of the AI-led innovations eBay is preparing to spotlight during eBay Open 2025:

1. Magical Listing
   Leveraging proprietary large language models and image recognition, this tool auto-generates titles, descriptions, categories, pricing, and shipping, all from just one image. Over 10 million unique sellers have created 200 million listings using it so far. Expect new enhancements, broader category support, multi-language options, and bulk listing capabilities.
   
    
2. Magical Bulk Listing & Mobile Listing Flow
   Expand your efficiency with AI-guided batch listing workflows optimized for speed and consistency. These features are widely available in the US, UK, and Germany.
   
    
3. Operator Assistant (OpenAI)
   As part of the strategic OpenAI partnership, Seller Assistant helps buyers discover hard-to-find items and highlights unique inventory, driving more targeted traffic and conversions. At eBay Open 2025, seller workshops will dive into hands-on use cases for this tool.
   
    
4. Livestream Commerce & eBay Live Expansion
   Building on the Vegas stop of eBay Live on Tour and Amazon-style shopping formats, live-selling is now a priority for eBay. Expect keynote demos highlighting tools to integrate livestreaming with listing and marketing strategies.

Why This Truly Matters to Sellers

Sellers attending eBay Open 2025 (in-person or via eBay Open Online) will walk away armed with scalable tools. Magical Listing alone promises to halve listing time while boosting quality. Live-selling offers a whole new channel to introduce products to interested audiences. And omnichannel visibility, through partner platforms like Facebook Marketplace, extends seller reach organically.

Where MyListerHub Fits In

While eBay Open 2025 highlights platform-level innovation, MyListerHub is focused on the daily reality of eBay sellers, the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that steal your time and limit your growth.

Our platform was built by eBay sellers, for eBay sellers. We understand what it means to relist stale inventory manually, manage offers, send follow-up messages, print labels, and process orders, because we’ve lived it. That’s why we designed MyListerHub to automate the unglamorous but mission-critical parts of selling.

Many sellers come to us with niche problems, asking for help with tasks that would typically require thousands of dollars in custom development or months working with outside developers. With a dedicated development team behind us, we’re able to adapt to those needs quickly, delivering custom features that help sellers stay efficient and competitive.

We’re not just observers, we’re contributors. At our sponsored booth, MyListerHub will reveal major platform updates designed to integrate with eBay’s AI tools and enhance seller workflows. We’ll provide live demos, answer your questions in real-time, and yes, we’ll be announcing our free annual subscription giveaways during the event.

Whether you’re visiting us in person or tuning into the livestream, this is your chance to see how MyListerHub can support your business, not someday, but today.

Final Thoughts

eBay Open 2025 is on the cusp of showcasing AI-powered listing tools, streamlined commerce experiences, and platform-driven integrations that empower the seller community. With eBay’s strong financial foundation and strategic innovation in place, this event isn’t just a conference; it’s a preview of the future of selling.

Whether you’re joining us in Las Vegas or tuning in online, don’t miss your chance to see MyListerHub in action, and get a firsthand look at the future of selling.
