Kijiji alerts, minutes after an ad goes up

Pouncify is a free Windows and macOS app that watches Kijiji for the things you are hunting and alerts you within minutes of a fresh ad — on your phone, Telegram, email or Discord. Kijiji needs no account, and the watching happens on your own computer in Canada.

Every new listing on your phone, within minutes

Pouncify watches Kijiji for you and sends each new match straight to your phone within minutes of it going live — with the photo, the price and where it is. One search covers Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist too. Each alert arrives with the ad's price history and any repost already spotted.

How Pouncify watches Kijiji

Pouncify watches Kijiji for your area — no account needed. Every ad carries the time it went live and, for most ads, exact map coordinates, so Pouncify knows how new an ad is and how far away it is before it alerts you.

It can be checked every few minutes, at a pace you choose. Kijiji serves Canada, so Pouncify offers it to Canadian users; distances show in kilometres.

What you get

  • Alerts where you already are — Telegram, email, Discord, or a push to the free iPhone and Android app, each with the photo, price, location and a link straight to the listing.
  • Fresh means fresh — Pouncify alerts on genuinely new listings, not on stale reposts, so you are not racing to something that sold last week.
  • Price history and reposts — every listing's price is tracked; a drop on something you are watching pings you, and reposts are recognised in many cases, so you are not alerted twice.
  • One search, every marketplace — the same saved search also watches the other marketplaces Pouncify supports in your region.
  • Any category — furniture, tools, bikes, cameras, baby gear, PC parts, appliances; if it is sold for local pickup it can be watched. Vehicles go deepest, with make, model, year and price history.

Setting it up

  1. Install Pouncify on Windows or macOS from the download page. There is no account to create.
  2. Add a search: what you are looking for, where, and how far you will travel. No Kijiji account, no login. Kijiji is offered to users in Canada.
  3. Pick where alerts should go — Telegram, email, Discord or the phone app — choose how often it checks, and turn the schedule on. Pouncify does the watching from then on.
