## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-17 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest trying them:
> 
> **1. Shopify Marketplace Connect** - If your store is on Shopify, start here before paying for anything else. It's the former Codisto app, which Shopify bought in 2023 and now runs natively. Syncs listings, inventory and orders to Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Etsy and Target Plus from inside your Shopify admin. First 50 marketplace orders/month free, then 1% per synced order capped at $99/month - hard to beat on price. ([shopify.com/marketplace-connect](https://www.shopify.com/marketplace-connect))
> 
> **2. Sellbrite** - Best lightweight option if you're not on Shopify or want something simpler. Centralized catalog, marketplace-specific listing templates, inventory sync across channels. Highest user ratings of the main players (4.7/5) and reviewers consistently call it the easiest to set up and run. Free tier, paid from ~$49/month. Owned by GoDaddy, so it's stable but not evolving fast. ([g2.com comparison](https://www.g2.com/compare/linnworks-vs-listing-mirror-vs-sellbrite))
> 
> **3. Channable** - My pick if your real problem is *feeds and listing data quality* rather than orders - rule-based feed transformatio
