Use case overview

Comet added about 20 items to an Instacart cart from ShopRite in about five minutes, choosing cheapest or bestselling items, and declined to purchase.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    The author asked Comet to write a charcuterie board shopping list, then to add the items to her Instacart account. She had to be logged into Instacart, but the tab didn't need to be open. Comet shopped ShopRite through Instacart on its own, and she watched it in a mini screen and a Steps tab. She gave no brand or organic preferences.

  2. How it went

    It added about 20 items in about five minutes, and they were waiting in the cart. It defaulted to the cheapest or bestselling option, and it said it wouldn't complete the purchase. The author wanted to compare cheeses herself.

  3. Worth knowing

    Checkout is left to you, and with no brand instructions it picks the cheapest or bestselling item, so give specifics if you care about the choices. Comet needs a waitlist spot or Perplexity Pro at $200 a month.
