Is it OK to use bots in FFXIV?

Yep. This. Some people are just hardcore and no-life the market board. Doesn't always have to be a bot.

If you see them teleporting then yes, it is a bot. Otherwise, no.

The undercut bots typically have alts camped out by retainers 24/7 and will undercut within less then a minute of something being listed at a lower price them then them.

This is especially easy to identify if the alts in question are level 21, which is the absolute minimum you need to be in order to have access to a retainer.

And no, they don't teleport. The only bots that teleport are the ARR gil farmers who just want to make a quick penny from speeding through the MSQ as quickly as possible and basically are committing account suicide because they're well-aware of how quickly they'll get banned.
