Post an ad directly from your AI chat

If the photos are already in the chat, there is no need to upload them again to the form. Your AI app can draft the ad, ask for your confirmation, and publish it.

This morning the apartment photos were already in the chat: the living room, the kitchen, and the balcony. What was missing was not having to upload them to the computer again. Now your AI app—the one you already use for writing or translating—can take those photos and assemble the listing on Colombia Move.

It is not a chatbot hidden on the site. It is the same account connector we announced on September 8, 2026 in how to connect your AI. If you want the recap of offers and reviews, it is in the September 9 package. This text covers something else: publishing and searching like someone talking to a friend.

The official connector guide is at colombiamove.com/ai/mcp, consulted on September 9, 2026. The agent works with your permission, on your account, not someone else's.

The photos are already in the chat

On your phone, almost no one "has the URL" of a photo. The chat has it. If your AI app can see the file, tell it: publish this Dyson or this furnished apartment. It will request a short slot to upload the file and then attach it to the listing. JPG, PNG, or WebP. Moderation is the same as the site's, valid as of September 9, 2026: it does not bypass the filter.

If the file is huge, don't convert it into a kilometer-long text. Ask the app to use the prepared upload and show you the listing once the photo is already there. A clear photo takes a housing or object listing out of "pending" status.

Thirty seconds: draft, yes, publish

Speak naturally. “Selling MacBook Pro 14 in Envigado, good condition, 3,200,000.” The AI puts together the title, category, and city. You see a preview with a score from 0 to 100 and what is missing—neighborhood, price, another photo—. If it's correct, you confirm. If not, you correct a line.

That “yes” matters. Nothing goes into search just because the chat got excited. Housing and objects still require at least one photo. A job posting or a remote service can live without one.

Paste the WhatsApp group

Sometimes the inventory isn't in your head: it's in a long message from the building's group. Copy it and tell the AI: prepare up to twenty drafts. Each one counts as one of your listings. It works for “selling cell phone,” “looking for furnished apartment Poblado pets,” “I provide plumbing,” or “offering job.”

If there are no rentals, don't leave empty-handed

Before, a narrow search would return an empty result and a link to search again. Now, if there are no rentals in El Poblado this week, the AI tells you what is nearby—Envigado, Laureles—and leaves you a ready alert or a “looking for apartment” draft. El Poblado is a commune of Medellín (Medellín Mayor's Office, consulted on September 9, 2026).

Prices appear as sale or rental prices, not as if they were a salary. A three-million-peso appliance shouldn't be disguised as a job.

Envigado is not a neighborhood of Medellín

The Envigado Mayor's Office (envigado.gov.co, consulted on September 9, 2026) is a municipality. If the listing is in Envigado, the city is Envigado. Medellín can include the Aburrá Valley when you ask for the metropolitan area, but the label must tell the truth. The same goes for Sabaneta or Itagüí. That way, the buyer doesn't think they are going to downtown Medellín when they are going to Envigado.

Close, share, or reply from the same chat

When it is rented or sold, tell the AI to close it. The listing will stop appearing as active in the search results. If you want to show it in the neighborhood group, ask for the text ready for WhatsApp: title, price, and public link. Without the owner's phone number. Visits are proposed at a mall or a station, not in the living room.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to publish from the AI app?

On the site, effective September 9, 2026, publishing remains free and there is no separate plan other than the connector. You use your normal account. The AI app you choose may charge its own subscription; Colombia Move does not collect those pesos. Source: connection guide and site rules consulted on that same date.

Is it safe to let the AI handle phone photos?

The photos go through the same site moderation, effective September 9, 2026. The connector does not publish the owner's phone number or email in the public search. You confirm before the listing becomes active. Source: connector rules from September 8, 2026.

Where do I publish if I don't want to use any AI?

Use the site form, consulted on September 9, 2026. The chat is a shortcut, not a requirement. The connection guide from September 8 explains the connector in case you want to try it later. You can also create the text by hand and upload the photos from the computer.

Can I paste a message from a WhatsApp group?

Yes. Paste the text and ask for drafts, up to twenty per batch, effective September 9, 2026. Each row counts as one of your listings and follows the same category and city rules. Check the preview: a MacBook should not end up in cell phones.

Why shouldn't Envigado appear as a neighborhood of Medellín?

Envigado is a municipality with its own mayor's office, consulted on September 9, 2026 at envigado.gov.co. Treating it as a neighborhood of Medellín lies about the commute and local property tax. The listing must say city Envigado; Metropolitan Medellín is a different search.

📖

What do I do if the search doesn't find rentals in El Poblado?

Ask for alternatives and an alert, not an empty result. El Poblado is a commune of Medellín (Medellín Mayor's Office, consulted on September 9, 2026). The AI can suggest Envigado or another neighborhood and leave you a “looking for apartment” draft. That way you don't go to another classified site blindly.
