Is the AutoLens extension free?

Does it work with my dealership website?

Does it work in Microsoft Edge?

Yes. Install it from the Chrome Web Store in Edge the same way you would in Chrome.

Who writes the listing description?

AutoLens writes it from the specs captured on the page, and you can edit it before anything goes live. See how AutoLens writes vehicle descriptions.

Where do captured vehicles go?

Into your AutoLens inventory, shared by everyone on your plan, where each vehicle shows whether it’s ready for Facebook Marketplace. See Marketplace listings.

Chrome and Edge extension

The AutoLens Chrome extension

The AutoLens Chrome extension is a browser extension that captures a vehicle from your own dealership website and syncs it to your AutoLens dashboard. It is listed on the Chrome Web Store as “AutoLens — Website to Marketplace”.

From there, AI writes the listing description from that vehicle’s specs. The extension then prepares the Facebook Marketplace listing in your own browser for you to review or publish. It works in Chrome and Microsoft Edge and needs an AutoLens account.

How it works

From vehicle page to Marketplace-ready.

Install and sign in

Add the extension from the Chrome Web Store, then sign in with your AutoLens account.

Open a vehicle page

Go to a vehicle on your own dealership website and press Scan. The details are read from the page you’re looking at.

Review in the dashboard

The vehicle lands in your AutoLens inventory with a readiness badge that says what Facebook Marketplace still needs.

Prepare the listing

The extension fills in the Marketplace listing form in your browser. Your dealership chooses whether it publishes or stops for a person to check first.

What it captures

The fields you’d otherwise retype.

Whatever your vehicle page publishes, from its structured data first and the visible page second.

Year, make, model and trim
Price
Odometer, in km or miles
VIN or serial number
Body style, transmission and drivetrain
Fuel type and engine
Exterior and interior colour
Stock number and condition
The equipment list
Every gallery photo, at the largest size the page serves

Requirements

What you need.

Requirement	Details
Browser	Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge on a desktop or laptop. Firefox and mobile browsers are not supported.
Account	An AutoLens account. Every plan includes the extension, starting with the Extension plan.
Website	Vehicle pages on a website you own or are authorized to advertise from.
Facebook	Your own Facebook account, signed in, in the same browser.

Permissions and privacy

What the extension can see.

To read a vehicle page, the extension needs permission to access the page you’re on. It uses that access when you press Scan, and on the Facebook Marketplace pages it helps you fill in.

It stores your sign-in and your capture queue in the browser, and sends captured vehicles to your AutoLens account. It does not sell data or use it for advertising. The details are in the AutoLens privacy policy.

Straight answers

What it doesn’t do.

Worth knowing before you decide, not after.

Capture from sites you don’t control
It is built for your own inventory. Competitor sites and other marketplaces are not a supported use.
Work without an account
Captured vehicles sync to an AutoLens account; the extension on its own doesn’t store an inventory.
Run in Firefox or on a phone
Chrome and Edge on a computer only, for now.
Take down sold listings for you
Sold units stop being prepared again, but removing a live Marketplace listing is still done by hand.
