Shopping Research is a new tool that enables ChatGPT to help you find great deals on products, and it\u2019s rolling out today on mobile and web for logged-in users on ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans.<\/p>\n<p>One of the main problems with shopping using an AI <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/tag\/chatbot\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/tag\/chatbot\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">chatbot<\/a> is that they have never been good at verifying if a price is the lowest it\u2019s been, or understanding if a deal is actually good value.

It\u2019s like it becomes your personal shopping assistant.<\/p>\n<p>So, you could type something like \u201cFind me a unique frog-themed gift for someone who loves eclectic decor\u201d, or \u201cBest TVs for a bright room\u201d, and ChatGPT will ask you if you\u2019d like to launch Shopping Research and let it research that topic for you.<\/p>\n<p>The Shopping Research experience is a two-way conversation, with ChatGPT asking your smart clarifying questions and searching the Internet for up-to-date information that\u2019s delivered in minutes. OpenAI says that it performs particularly well for detail-heavy purchases like electronics, beauty, home and garden, kitchen &amp; appliances, and sports &amp; outdoor.<\/p>\n<p id=\"f150385f-0839-48ef-920a-2108093fc047\">Shopping Research in action.
