"A new Alexa+ shopping feature is rolling out that can not only monitor for lower prices on an item, but also predict and even automatically buy something when the price drops. The new feature is designed to provide Alexa users with a more proactive shopping experience, allowing them to find the best prices on items without having to search for them themselves."
"As part of the Shopping Essentials dashboard, the new feature will initially roll out to the Echo Show 15 and Echo Show 21 and is expected to be made available to other Echo devices later. To shop for the best price, Alexa uses AI to track prices and then buy designated items. You can always choose which items you want Alexa+ to track, and then the voice assistant can alert you with a notification when an item's price drops to your target."
Alexa+ can proactively monitor item prices, notify users when prices hit set targets, and automatically purchase items once those targets are reached. The AI tracks prices for designated items chosen by the user and can alert with notifications or execute purchases only at the specified price. The feature appears within a Shopping Essentials dashboard on Echo Show 15 and Echo Show 21 initially, with broader Echo device support planned. Shopping Essentials provides a centralized dashboard with household suggestions, shopping lists, save-for-later items, recent orders, and real-time delivery tracking. Users retain control over which items Alexa+ tracks and buy thresholds.
