Etsy allows seller-prompted AI creations when the seller plays a creative role and discloses AI use in the relevant listing.

What Etsy currently requires

Seller-prompted AI creations can qualify as ‘designed by a seller’. Etsy’s current Seller Policy and Creativity Standards require disclosure when an item is created using AI.

What you need to do

Use your own original prompt/input, disclose AI use in the relevant listing, comply with Creativity Standards and avoid prohibited or infringing content.

Common mistake

AI prompt bundles are not allowed as the item itself under Etsy’s current Creativity Standards.
