A reporter connected Instacart to ChatGPT, which assembled the cart for formula, ice cream and fruit and opened a checkout confirmation in chat.
The reporter connected an Instacart account through ChatGPT's app list, then asked for infant formula, a small container of vanilla ice cream and some fruit for delivery. ChatGPT suggested products and put options in the cart without much discussion. When the reporter said to check out, a window opened in the chat confirming the order, payment method and delivery address.
ChatGPT built the cart quickly and kept checkout inside the chat. The same list in Claude produced very similar products, but Claude only gave a link to finish the purchase in Instacart's site.
The test used a deliberately simple three-item list and did not compare prices or delivery times. Specific requests would probably matter more for getting the items you want.
Using my connected Instacart account, build a cart at [store name] for: [list of items, with brands or sizes if it matters]. Choose reasonable matches and tell me about any substitutions. Stop when the cart is ready and show me the full cart and total, and do not place the order until I confirm.
